Sesame.

May. 20th, 2014 09:20 pm
The fried sesame is a big success, even bigger than I could suspect. I left a saucer with fresh portion of the sesame on the table overnight and this morning I found out that my cats appreciated it as well! Especially Fili, yesterday he was sniffing me very curiously while I was eating porridge with sesame. I don’t know how much they eat or whether they eat it at all but they definitely nosed it closely. The seeds were all over the table. I’m not sure what effect sesame had on them, though my sister said they had a wrestling match on her back around 4 a.m.

(I recalled an episode from one of Gerald Durrell’s books, how they added some seeds to their animals’ ration. But that was aniseed, not sesame.)
Yesterday I faced rather funny problem.
Considering my health, I have to keep a quite strict diet: no fatty meat products, no too sour or too hot food, and some other restrictions. That means no sauce. And so far I had no idea how to eat rice or pasta without any kind of sauce. All receipts I know are meat sauces, which is no; other choice is ketchup, which is no as well.
That seems to be a trifle but when you're on a diet, it's important that you, well, keep that diet. And in my case if my food is bland it's only provoke me to eat something I shouldn't be eating. Yes, I has zero will power. XP
But I found the solution! Fried sesame! If add some fried sesame to pasta or rice then it become very tasty! XD
Time of quests has come, it seems.

Aside from “Fence for Yuki-kun” quest, there is more serious problem I need to face and solve. Namely, my health. Chronic cholecystitis I’ve been diagnosed with last year seems to became evident once again, and I suspect that my overall unwellness is not just me feeling down but this may be linked with this gall (and liver) problem. I need this to be medically examined, so I would have some certainty what to do next. I have to say, though, that I’m starting to like the idea of cystectomy; even though I had no gallstones year ago, I see what effect cystectomy has on my sister, who had them. She feels much, much better that last autumn. I wonder if it would be better for me too.
Sorry, But Our Princess is in Another Castle.

All my family and close friends know that I’m a person that doesn’t look for easy ways. Today’s quest proved this rule.
I have two cats, and a bough-pot with lovely Haworthia named Yuki-kun. These representatives of animal and floral life don’t mix well: the cats constantly try to eat Yuki-kun or dig him out of his pot. I have to put Yuki-kun on one of my bookcases, but there he doesn’t receive enough sunlight. Yuki-kun, being a succulent, is quite tough, but still, two curious cats and lack of sunlight takes its toll on him.
So I decided to fence some place on one of window sills, so the cats won’t be able to reach Yuki-kun. This fence must be quite aesthetically pleasing (my sister’s requirement). And somehow I came upon idea that if I could put the pot with Yuki-kun into small cylindrical bird cage that would be ideal solution! And today I went to the quest. Seven of zoo shops in the city centre. Or maybe more, I didn’t count (my poor feet). All of them had only large cages, though I have to say that shop assistants was making quite funny faces when I was telling them why I need small cylindrical bird cage.
Alas, no aesthetically pleasing fence for Yuki-kun. :( I feel I’ll have to construct the fence from plastic wire mesh that used in gardens.

Well, well

How long ago the Dreamwidth has got unblocked in Russia? Last time I tried to access it, all I got was 404 error.
Well, all to the good.

Duh

I honestly forgot I have a journal here. And why I'm posting here again? Because I run a search on Tumblr by tag "vladimir heavy draft", and the first entry has this journal listed as source. *headdesk*
I have no idea who or what sends that number of bots to the board with my RP but I don't really mind. They can't register, let alone to post, but they can do nice thing to the board statistics - now we have new record of traffic ranking. XP.
It's funny how the most productive days happen when I have to get up very early. Like today; I got up in 5 AM to help a friend with photosession. And so far I've done much more than I usually do. Not to mention that I clocked in at least two hours earlier than in other days, but it probably doesn't count because usually I stuck in traffic jam on my way to work, and today I didn't need to go by bus, I passed this night at said friend's apartments.

Well, considering how I've been feeling lately, it was easy. It seems Persen works.

Huh?

It was "The Day of Heart Attack" yesterday or what?

I already posted about my disadventure with Persen Forte (it has 125 mg of setwell, no wonder I was feeling like crap). But it seemed there was a figurative meaning for heart attacks: my board where I roleplay was down for whole evening. I made regular back-up this Sunday but thankfully I didn't need it. The board works now.

And as for the board, I finally write a mass-message to all players with instructions on how to vote on a rating site where I advertise my RP. Hopefully it'll give us some more of votes. And as result, bring new players.
I'm an idiot. I did bought Persen but not usual one. I bought Persen Forte. Well, it indeed helps against apathy, anxiety, and other nasty syndromes. It also affects funny on my poor aorta. I almost caught a heart attack in my way to home. Probably hot weather and crowded bus took their toll, but still.
I gave that Persen Forte to my sister; she's heavier than me and that dosage is fine for her. I'm going to buy normal Persen tomorrow.
I don't know how to name the condition I'm in right now but it feels like I've just reached a peak of some sort. It's a strange anxiety, the need to move and create new journal on different platform, the feeling as if I'm choking or I need to go somewhere asap... Well, it sucks.
I don't think I have some sort of disorder (denial already?), this condition is too far and between, and usually all I feel is just apathy. I'm pretty lazy person by nature and it's hard for me to will myself to do what I should to do (and I have a lot of to do). I even find it hard to post in RP I created with my friend, I'm fit for nothing lately. It suuucks!
I think I'll buy a package of Persen in my way home. I'm so tired of being apathetic.
Created an account here to keep track on some communities moved here from LJ. Will be reposting here what I post usually in my LJ as well but since DW has awesome option that allows to import entries from LJ, I did just that.

I've got a nasty flu that keeps me at home. And as consequences, I've got a lot of free time in my hand. When a fever is high enough to impede a board owner to write in game posts, what the said admin does? Correct, he is reading the fucking manual and tinkering with the board.
