Udon and GBS therapy

[annathepiper]

Whatever part of me is in charge of system maintenance (the thing that kathrynt refers to as the Nano-Mechanical Anna) was hyperobsessed with the thought of udon soup today, with a cube of bouillon in it. Specifically the bouillon. solarbird made me this for dinner tonight, and I damn near swooned at the taste of it. Something in there was desperately, desperately needed--the salt, perhaps. Or the protein. It tasted unbelievably good.

With a similar level of desperate craving, I fired up my "GBS Favorites" playlist in iTunes tonight and damn near broke into tears at the sound of the Fire in the Kitchen version of "Lukey" starting off the list. I made it through to "Paddy Murphy", which was next, and desperately, desperately wanted to sing, but my throat went "Ah, no. Let's not go there yet". This must definitely be a sign that I am improving, because now I am starting to think about wanting to belt out ditties again rather than lying in bed being miserable.

By the time the playlist hit "When I'm Up" I had to have my guitar in my hands, so I went downstairs to get my instrument and the tuner, and played "Mari-Mac"! I broke into a sweat doing it, but hell, that happens when I'm healthy!

Gentle readers, I do believe this means I am back.

Yay! Let the games begin.

Well, at least for the next few days they'll have to be gentle, easygoing games! Even though I'm more active today, I keep finding myself going OKAY SIT DOWN NOW and needing ice water. :)

Of course, it's been wicked hot here lately! But!
