I could live on ginger.
I love ginger tea.
I cut off slices of ginger to eat for lunch.
I give myself dizzying blood sugar spikes with sugar coated ginger slices.
Yum!
So, when I saw Ginger flavoring at the liquor store I mentioned that I was interested in it.
When the man in the basement is mean to me, he buys me cheap gifts. Last night, my gift was Ginger flavoring to stir into vodka or to cook with.
So....being in pain from trying to talk to him and worrying about what to do next, I found myself unable to sleep.
I got myself a wine glass and filled it half full of vodka and topped it off with the ginger flavoring. Starting about 10:00 p.m., I took a sip every half-hour I couldn't sleep. Somewhere around 3:30 a.m., I polished off the glass and awoke at 5:30 with the headache of a lifetime.
It's 9:00 p.m. and I'm still in pain.
I'm in really bad pain.
My head aches. My stomach aches. I can barely move. I can barely see.
I think I have alcohol poisoning.
After eight hours of trying to avoid any light, I found my way to the computer where I Googled the name on the bottle.
It is ginger flavored vodka.
I thought it would cut the strength of my usual drink of choice...nope, I effectively doubled it.
I drink to chase away crazy nightmares.
I'd rather suffer horrible dreams than feel like this.
Love ya,
Stupid S.
