Word of the Day: 塩っぽい

I really need to go over all my diary entries and make sure none of the themes are repeating. I have had some people ask me about that and the thing is, they are not always about what I am writing about, though for some entries they are connected to the content. It is more of a game I play with myself to sort of encourage the study of Japanese or keeping a sort of " Flashcard set " , if you will.

But like any vocab list, you got to update it and refresh it, so. I need to do that soon. Just go through all my entries and see what I can do. I hope in the future we'll have a better way of storing our stories on this website since there is no way to make like "collections" or "folders" on here to group related stories together.

We really need something like that.

I am wondering if I should do that now or not. Looking at my Math homework in the modules I am like... either pile looks hard. But I don't have a time limit on editing my blog so, I don't know if i should concentrate on that now or not. My mood is sort of saying, " work on it " though.

I made Migas and washing it down with some vitamin grape juice. Tastes pretty good. I feel sort of.. not lost, not tired but, just I want to have a break already... I mean I am going to get up and go eat some gummies right now, but that is the thing, I don't want to have to take weed to hustle. I like having off days where I just let my body rest from any sort of drugs, even caffeine, but since I am in school, I can't afford to be short of either weed or caffeine. Speaking of which, I think I am going to throw out the pot of coffee, it has been like 2 days, and I am not so sure my creamer hasn't turned.

Green tea is sort of a lot more straight forward, I don't have to worry about adding cream or sugar to it like you do with black tea. I can feed it to Margaret and Leo ( A fern in the corner of my room and a long vine-y thing sitting on top of my bookshelf, respectively ).

This grape juice stuff is so chemically but they have inserted vitamins and minerals into it so, I feel it is... good to drink it some how? Like half bad half good for you lol. Same thing with energy drinks ( I mean not all of them since each one has different mixture of ingredients but ) usually they have some B vitamins, which are good for you, mixed with a bunch of nasty sugar and chemical flavoring. It isn't that drinking an energy drink is bad for you, but some people drink it like water and that is where it can be bad as an overdose of B vitamins leads to sort of nerve damage or flaring of the nerves.

A natural cure for that is Horsetail ( not real horse's tail hairs but a plant ). It acts as a diuretic and flushes out the system and calms some of the nerve damage for that. I guess you can boil it and make it into a tea? I am not sure how you ingest this, if you eat the plant or just drink its essence.

In Japan, it is called Tsukushi and is actually eaten as an old timey countryside dish, making me think that it might be ok to actually eat the plant but, I don't know if there is a distinct difference for that between the Japanese and Western versions of the plant, whether one is more toxic than the other?
