I do not appreciate Mr. Jackhammer aka the older of the Upstairs Kids hopping up and down and up and down directly above my bedroom at 0755 on a Sunday. It's not cool.

I resent being awake and showered already.

But I suppose this means I've now got tons of time to get things done around here.


Also, what's with the big pushback regarding high fructose corn syrup lately?

I thought eggs were always incredibly edible! ;)

Just like many people can be stung by a bee more than once until the time they do have a reaction, people are unknowingly putting corn into their body. It's possible they're overwhelming their system with it until the body rebels, but because corn syrup is so often hidden, it's difficult to make the connection.

I could buy this, actually.

I've been wondering about the health/allergy connection since we have so many kids practically growing up drinking corn syrup laden drinks and more kids are having allergy issues too.

There was one drink I tried a couple of years ago that was a diet drink, so no corn syrup, but it was one of those "good for you" drinks with "extra" natural ingredients. It took me a while to figure it out, but every time I drank one, I would get a bad headache. I don't know what it was that triggered me, but I avoid those types of drinks to this day.
