you're going to think i'm nutty.
i have eaten 2 bulbs of raw garlic in the past 12 hours. it's cause i woke up with a sore throat at 2am. I ate a bulb of garlic, drank echinacea in water, and took a lozenge. next time i woke up i had no sore throat.
a little congested but nothing crazy. i had another bulb with vitamin c when i woke up for good measure.
stinky! yeah! kimya would be proud of me for utilizing the powers of garlic. last weekend after her show she stayed over at our place (to record song w/ matt early morning next day) and ate a bunch of raw garlic cause she had a cold.
it works though! i can't believe it. other than alienating all of my friends with the stench and also my boyfriend who must get used to this new smelly me, i'm in garlique heaven.
our tour is going to be called the "GARLIC DOMINATION TOUR".
do you know there's a town in california called Gilroy whose main industry is garlic? THey have garlic spices and breads and garlic wine even. One time my parents bought a whole case of white garlic wine but the bottles sat in our basement for about 5 years. I think they liked the concept more than the reality.
i got a massage earlier in the week and loved it... angela my masseuse said that my back looked "more connected" with the muscles than when she massaged me over the summer. like my lower back was having a dialogue with my upper back.
Lower back: allright dude, you have to stop lifting cymbal stands from a bent over position cause it makes me cranky
upper back: whatever look at these shoulder blade wings strong as schwarzenegger and you wish you could be as high as i was but you will never be! muahahha.
she gave me some suggestions for essential oils and i bought peppermint, lavender, and eucalyptus. because i am a hippie!
last day at work i'm really excited.
i'm broke but who cares? i've got my health and my garlic.
