Hangover

I am in the throes of a monster hangover—not from booze but from smoke. Last night BP had a cookout for his students. "Cookout" here does not mean a gas grill with shrimp and veggies; it means an open fire on the back forty with hot dogs, hamburgers, and smores. And I have a chemical sensitivity to smoke. And we were out there for hours. And then I slept, fitfully, for 9 hours and woke up with a headache, a powerful thirst, and a fuzzy brain.

So what do I do with my fuzzy brain? Blog, natch.

Incidentally, during the fitful sleep I dreamed that Jen and I were designing an independent study on the rhetoric of cooking. She was going to observe a cooking class and read old cookbooks. Uh-oh; I'm starting down Amy's path of wacky dreams!

I totally understand!! The smoke from a charcoal grill triggers instant and severe migraines for me. Rest and stay away from the wacky dreams :-)

And darling, it's a path that disappears as you walk it. Ugh.
