What Do You Want?

MissMimi posted on Apr 02, 2007 | views: 1365 | Tags: life, craving, pickles, sleep, peace, Brandy, Hugh Grant, cravings

I want a dill pickle! I want to sink my teeth into the crunchy salty garlicky yumminess of a Claussen deli-style dill pickle, and in my fridge, there's not a pickle to be found. (Well, except for those namby-pamby little bread-and-butter slices, hardly worthy of the name pickle.)   For the second week in a row, I forgot to buy pickles when I went to the grocery store, and all I can think about is pickles. 

I don't want to write the great American novel.  I don't want to cure the common cold.  I just want a pickle!!

So, what do you really want, right now?

    Mimi, if you or anyone could please tell me what I could use or do to get rid of plegm / cattarh from having a cold. . .that's what I'd want!  I wake up in the morning and cough like a smoker and I have never touched a cigarette ever in my life.  Gunk from within to dislodge, I really cant take it anymore!
  • MissMimi said on Apr 02, 2007....
    Awww, have you been sick, polarcakes? sometimes, the only way to get it out is to cough, cough, cough, and spit, spit, spit. Gross, I know, but you'll feel better. How about some nice hot tea with lots of lemon. Drink lots of liquids, it helps thin that stuff out. Sorry to be so graphic. :-/
  • silverwhisper said on Apr 02, 2007....
    right now, a nice full rack of ribs. :>

    I'll second the wish for ribs. I stopped at a cool old-style drive-in this noon for a quick hot dog. Ordinarily I don't eat food like that but it was a treat for my son, who had helped me repair his sister's ailing car. But I couldn't just sit there while he ate that magnificent dog and those delectable fries, could I?

    Ed, I'm beginning to think you have a one-track mind...

    LJ, you're forgiven for succumbing to temptation.  I would have done the same thing, minus the fries.

    a new pair of eyeglasses.  i lost the screw on mine for the 100th time and now am doing a balancing act to keep them on my nose.

    SL, two words: duct tape. It would make quite a fashion statement.
  • skald said on Apr 02, 2007....
    That could be me. Going to the shop and forgetting the main thing in your case a pickle. In mine the bread.haha 
  • MissMimi said on Apr 02, 2007....
    skald, I guess I should start making a shopping list. I can't rely on my memory anymore.
  • Alyss said on Apr 02, 2007....
    LoL about the duct tape.

    Right now I want the person I'm speaking with to be in the same room as me but if I can't have that I'd like some genuine, deep sleep...

    I didn't want anything but after reading this I kind of want a dill pickle...my mouth is watering!
  • wombat said on Apr 02, 2007....
    I just drank two teaspoons of pickle juice for indigestion...Right now I want to burp.
     
    ghhrruuuuuuummmmmmmmph!
  • mom said on Apr 02, 2007....
    wombat- pickle juice?  Does that work?  I am afraid I would get heart burn.
     
    Mimi- I love duct tape, it can be used for so many things and always has a very nice look and feel to it.  NEVER, I mean NEVER use it on bare skin, one time I used it over my breasts.  Well, I went from a D cup to a B cup.  Not pretty.  Men can use it over the holes in their jeans or if their zipper breaks.  That stuff really grabs hold.  If you use it to cover a zipper, then you can draw a zipper right on the duct tape and no one will know.  It is great stuff.  I like ot keep a roll in my purse just for such occasions.
    Right now I would like 24 to be on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Zayda said on Apr 02, 2007....
    Right now, I want to go to go throw myself on my bed without changing out of my clothes or washing the makeup off my face because I am that tired. But, instead, I have work to do--which is why I am here, avoiding said work.
  • wombat said on Apr 02, 2007....
    mom:  I got off the antacids by taking pickle juice, or eating a pickle.  And yes, it works.  After a time.  The body eats the antacids, and stops producing them.  (antacids--a necessary nutrient, or whatever it is)    So, then the body calls out for more, and produces more, so more antacids--a vicious cycle.  Once you train your body, and balance out, a pickle will do.
  • mom said on Apr 02, 2007....
    Zayda- aww *hugs*, here let me help you.  Would you like a nice cup of hot cocoa?  How about a nice foot massage?  Let me make dinner and you just relax.
     
    Wombat- that is great advice, it seems that pickles would create even more acid.
  • wombat said on Apr 02, 2007....
    mom:  They do--that is the point.  The body needs acid to function, and when you load up on tums, it stops producing it for a time.  Then it surges with acid, to make up for the loss. So, you take more tums.  You get caught up in that bad cycle.  But if you cut out the "tums" or whatever, and every time you get indigestion and heartburn, you try the pickle juice or a dill pickel, eventually, all you need is the pickle to balance out.  I know you don't believe me, but it works with time--at least it did with me.  That much I can claim. Thus, the money-making industry of meds on tv....
  • Zayda said on Apr 02, 2007....
    mom: right now, i would kill for a foot massage, calf massage--my calves are killing me, and back massage (I carry my tension/stress in my back.). it's a little warm here tonight for cocoa, but thank you. :)


    my hubby popped a pizza in the oven when i walked through the door because i was staring, having not really eaten today. and of course, a pizza at....erm...10:30 at night is oh so good for me. /sigh
  • wombat said on Apr 02, 2007....
    Zayda:  Since I am into advising--lie on the floor on your back and close your eyes.  Relax all your muscles, and let your body sink into the floor.  Relax every muscle, even the tiny ones, in your face, throat, feet, legs, back of your head--all of them,  and let your breathing change... Think good thoughts, and just rest..... Try it sometime.
  • CamDaMan20 said on Apr 02, 2007....
    Brandy...a few shots of a good brandy will break whatz in your chest loose.

    Can be taken straight, with tea and lemon, or just chased with Pepsi or Mt. Dew .

    Good Brandy flows warmly thru your body...lifting your spirits and loosening tight muscles...helps to relax you.

    Brandy goes great with sex to....hehe

    Brandy won't cure everything, but it makes about anything that is hurting feel better.

    When I have a cold, I take Two Shots, Two Women, and climb into bed to sweat it out......
  • MissMimi said on Apr 02, 2007....

    Ooh, mom, that 24 was a real piss-ripper tonight! Can't wait for you to see it!

    Right now, I think I would like for someone, preferably someone male and outrageously sexy, to wash my hair.

  • wombat said on Apr 02, 2007....
    or just knock back a shot of brandy.  I would if I had some...Ha.  Have to think about the two women, though....  Just messing with you, CamDaMan20.  I still apologize....
  • mom said on Apr 02, 2007....
    Zayda- I know what you mean about stress.  I carry mine in my neck and back also.  Wouldn't you just love to have a masseusse waiting at home for you?  You could lay down and have him  rub you, but not rub you the wrong way.  Your husband is so thoughtful.  What a nice guy.
     
    Wombat- I have done those relaxation exercises and they do work. :)
     
    Mimi- you little dickens.  I can't wait for 24 tonight, it just gets better and better every week.  I want to see Milo and Nadia again.  Last week was so hot.

    Right now, I really want a pizza, dripping with spicy sauce and oozing melted cheese. The kind you have to eat with a fork. Anybody want some?
  • CreativeWoman said on Apr 03, 2007....
    Mimi,
    I'll take some.  How about with some Canadian bacon and mushrooms.  mmmmm

    I had Chinese for lunch.  It didn't hit the spot for some reason though.  I usually like it.

    MissMimi: I do, with some ice cream and cake.

    No, I'm not a glutton - my wife gave out almost all the birthday cakes (3 received for my daughter's first birthday) to my brother, sisters, parents, my son's teachers, friends....

    So, now there is none left for me!


    Polar:BTW, your coughing and phlegmatic problems can be solved with a combination of candies!

    Seriously, just find two types of candy, one with a minty flavor and the other with a hotter flavor - like 'Tom-Tom' and 'Blue' from Cadbury's.

    Just take a pair of these for as long as it takes - works for me better than 'real' medication!
    Happy licking your way to recovery!

  • MissMimi said on Apr 03, 2007....
    Relicolony, I don't have cake. How about some ice cream and some weird homemade chocolate sauce? One of my less successfull kitchen experiments. But it's chocolate so how can it be bad?
  • botoni said on Apr 03, 2007....
    I want the snow outside to go away. (It will.)
    I want the dust inside to go away. (It wont.)
    Phlegm removing method:
    Deep breath and a very shallow pretend cough.
    Count to 5 and repeat.
    On the fifth repeat take an extra deep breath and give one really hard cough.
    It might take a bit of practice but once you have it down pat it works everytime and is very painless if you ve got that 'Oh my gawd my chest hurts!' kind of cough.

    A couple of suggestions for your mucus problem.

    Yes a pickle rush. The wiggly feeling you get when you take that first crunchy bite, and that garlicky, salty, pickly flavor explodes in your mouth. similar to a chocolate rush, except that a chocolate rush is often mistaken for an orgasm... ;)

My life is really weighing heavy on my mind today. Some days I wake up looking for one good reason to get out of bed. I have things I'm supposed to get done today, and I can't find the motivation to make a start.
