It's more interesting to me to write silly reviews of ballets than to talk about my actual life, but I suspect my readers feel differently so.
My stomach has been on and off awful since last Tuesday. I don't know if it's linked to stress (job, study, stuff I haven't done) or a genuine sickness thing coming back. I haven't eaten any substantial amount of gluten since last Tuesday and it doesn't seem to have improved anything. I am assured that I need to go for a good few weeks without before I'll know if it's related or not, so I will stay strong and eat no wheat.
The protein cookie is available at some star marts and is a cakey cookie made mostly from almond meal and milk solids. It's quite tasty although it smells very strongly of almonds and that always makes me think of that Roald Dahl short story about taxidermy! They're better when heated in the microwave, I think. I tried to get some more this afternoon but the Star Mart in Manners Mall don't have 'em and that's where I was.
On Monday I was plagued by awful pains in my abdomen accompanied by a drained feeling. It wasn't quite bad enough to take myself home to bed, but it made my work day uncomfortable.
Tuesday I felt a hell of a lot better but my bowel was very uh, productive. I don't know what that's about, since I would have thought it would make me feel worse? Today is a fun mixture of the two with both symptoms at low levels.
I have decided to not have the drinky yoghurt in the morning any more just in case it is actually dairy related. I am still getting dairy other ways, since November is NoWheatVember. Depending on how I feel at the end of the month I may have NoDairycember. Or NoDairyuary? Meh. If I don't start feeling better in a couple of days I'm going back to my doctor, I just wanted to have a bit longer on no wheat first.
In other non-biological news, socks arrived today! It's mostly only exciting to me in an "I got a package!" way, as most of what I bought is Christmas Presents and the rest of the order is Rachel and Sass.
