I must say).

Popped myself with my epi pen, tossed the remainder of the burger on the counter and gave them the evil eye. I was NOT pleased. And, the additional meds I took when I got home put me out of commission for most of the afternoon.

Reminder to self: Check the damn burger BEFORE you eat it. (I can be such a total moron.)
I don't know why fast food places can NEVER get an order correct! I'm not allergic to tomatoes but I don't like them and always ask for my sandwich without tomato. I invariably end up picking the darn things off the sandwich anyway. I am the quintessential eternal optimist, though, and will keep asking for No Tomato!

Thank goodness you had your Epi Pen. I have had students who require them and am very grateful that I have never had to use one.

Got up this morning and none of it had been done. So no more cooking until the washing up is done (apart from anything else I need the wok to cook the tea today).

So instead I'm listening to the radio and catching up here while my housemate works out how many hard drives he needs to buy. He's been there an hour so far and no sign of any progress It's very relaxing.
If I didn't know better, I would think your housemate is my son. He is off of school for the summer and since he took summer classes he didn't bother to get a job. He is supposed to dry and put the dishes away after his sister or I wash them, but they are usually sitting there the next morning until I start hollering.
