Medical Annoyances

My sleep is so screwy that my medicine doses are completely off some days, with night doses happening at 6 or 8am, sometimes later. Anyway, after almost seven months of no seizures, life caught up with me. Two doses of Valium in 24 hours and no missed doses recently, and I still had a partial seizure at 4am and a full seizure at 3:45pm, while packing to leave town. Needless to say, leaving town is on hold, as I have no desire to be on a bus tonight. Will go to Mobile tomorrow during the day, contemplating the 7am bus due to the screwy circadian rhythm and the desire to not be in a packed bus station on a national holiday. So anyway, eyebrows and haircut are on hold. Sigh.

Blog Roll Topic: What's the farthest you have traveled for food? Did you fly across the country just so you could have the perfect bowl of clam chowder? Did you cross the state line just for a scoop of ice cream? What was it, how far did you travel, and was it worth it?

As a kid, the answer was driving from Augusta, GA to Columbia, SC for either Fuddrucker's or California Dreaming. Fuddrucker's was usually attached to a zoo trip or on the way to Charleston for the beach, but always worth is. Their chicken club with honey mustard is fabulous. As far as there and back, that would be California Dreaming, honey butter croissants and Club salad or chicken fingers, depending on my age at the time of the trip. That was always good, but became unnecessary when a California Dreaming opened in Augusta. However, Fudd's on the way to Charleston is still a must.

Lately though, a day trip to New Orleans on my last trip to Mobile, at Mom's bday/Mother's Day. Too many episodes of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives led to roast beef and shrimp po'boys at Parasol's (Em's idea and I loved her for it) as well as red velvet cake and honey lavender plus four other flavors (including cracked pepper and corn, bad idea Emily) at the Creole Creamery (my choice). I'm yet to have bad food in New Orleans and still have several places on the must-visit list, Camelia's and Mother's first and foremost. Next trip hopefully. So yeah, I've done lots of traveling for food, but no flying for food...yet.
