I would like my throat to know that I don't think it's funny to be sore for three days in a row. I would like to request that it heal itself so I can cool it with the throat drops. By cool it, I don't mean soothe the burning sensation, but rather cease and desist.

I would like my upstairs neighbor to know that I am thoroughly confused by the occasional rhythmic that's going on up there. It's as if someone is drumming on the floor. It's not a bothersome noise, just a confusing one.

I would like to announce that, contrary to what I thought, I do not hate oatmeal. At least not quaker oatmeal in those little packets with flavors. I always thought that I hated oatmeal. I don't. I hated being forced to eat it at my grandparents house. Oatmeal is actually pretty okey dokey.

That's all.

Oatmeal is especially okey dokey with blueberries and brown sugar and cinnamon and a little bit of vanilla soy milk. And the blueberries give it a really pretty color, too... :)

Oatmeal is divine. I have just recently ditched the instant for the good old kind because you have much more freedom to mix and add what you want. Although I must say the only time I actually have time to make in the old-fashion way is at night so perhaps I should pick up some instant so I can actually eat it for breakfast. We can bring some packets to San Fran as I'm sure we are going to get sick of pancakes every morning.

Upstairs neighbors can make the most confusing noises. I've created whole stories about what they are doing and their odd life that seems to revolve around a lot of sleep or very little as they only make noise at around 1am and 5am. I wish I could sleep that much or survive on that little.

Sore throats stink. I know it's crummy but gargling with salt water does usually help, although it tastes nasty.

Like how I commented on each of your topics but just backwards. *sigh* I should sleep but I'm not tired.

Oatmeal's great with vanilla sugar and milk.

You can make vanilla sugar by splitting a vanilla bean lengthwise, spread it open and put it in your sugar bowl. You can keep adding more sugar as you use it up and the bean lasts a long time.

I'm a big fan of the maple & brown sugar oatmeal, and the fruit & cream varieties. I usually make mine in the microwave, but with milk instead of water.
