Tonight's Dinner: July 18, 2012

I had made the mistake of going to work for the first half of the day.  I thought that I could tough it out to get some missed work done, but I was wrong.  I looked and felt horrible so I ended up going home around 1pm.  I'm just glad that I live a block away from the office.  I stopped at Target first to pick up some medicine, but didn't know what to get because I didn't have any sniffles or a sore throat.  Usually, I try not to take medicine because it makes me feel great and then I end up over doing it and feel worse the next day.  I felt so terrible at work that I caved.  Low and behold, I rediscovered and old love from all my sick days in dreary NY.  I had horrible aches and pains, a headache and general lack of focus and zombie zoning.  I decided to get Airborne since I wasn't really sure what was wrong with me. After downing a glass of Airborne and laying down for a few hours, I felt amazing.  This stuff really is the thing of miracles.  I also drank half a large bottle of V8, which is packed with Vitamin C (lets not discuss the sodium content).  The pep is definitely back in my step.

In my newly found perkiness, I made a delicious linguine and clams dinner for us before getting in bed at 9pm.  I had bought live clams on Monday, but because cause of my illness I didn't want to make them last night.  They were extremely delicious tonight over spicy garlic noodles.  I will definitely be making this again soon.
