Woe, I'm out of sugar. I guess this is a sign from the universe not to have a second cup of coffee. That is, if the brown sugar makes it taste hideous anyway.

Day three of operation wake up and go in early is not going as well as the past two. Went to bed later and hit snooze more. :P Ah well. Still ahead of the game somewhat though uncertain if I'll be able to accomplish all I want before lab meeting.

Looking forward to a weekend of minimal "work work" and maybe some writing (since B is too busy to do movies). Happy friday everyone.

ETA - nope, brown sugar just might taste better than regular sugar in coffee. \0/ Here's hoping I'm not too wired to pipette accurately. *ignores the concerned looks* Hey, I've been very upfront about an addictive personality and this would be exactly why I don't even dabble in mood altering drugs stronger than caffeine.

Heh - I am famous (infamous?) not just for drinking weird shit in the way of tea (which, granted, I do), but for putting weird shit in said tea in the way of sweetening agents (and I don't mean artificial sweeteners - perish the thought!)

My bulk standard is molasses sugar - a dark, dark brown sticky sugar that's about as raw as you can get it and still be sugar. My cousin calls it 'hash sugar' for its resemblance. Dark brown raw honeys, maple syrup, agave syrup and stevia are other things I've played with - I think I like the sweetners I use to contribute more of a taste to the overall tea experience than just empty sweetness - I pretty much never have white sugar now unless there's *no* alternative.

Then again, I also know I'm in a minority there...

Good luck with the writing and the chill-out weekend!

Huh, well, surprisingly the brown sugar is working for more than just coffee. Made hot chocolate with it and it turned out rather well.

I like molasses a lot, but I have to stay away from it due to the sulfites :P I use too much sugar for maple syrup to that economical.....

How's the dizziness? How are you doing, sweetie? I can't tell. You seem a little all over the place. I'm worried.

[jebbypal]

Ah the dizziness was that one day only thing of the combination of all the stress, the lack of sleep, and going back on coffee that day. It's all gone.

As to the all over the place, yeah - it's my normal spring bungee cord of emotions of "yay the sun is back" but "boo, nothing else in my life has changed". But I'm good, hon, nothing to worry about.

Ok. I probably did this badly and I'm sorry for that. I should have sent you a private email or something. I'm no good at this kind of thing. I just wasn't sure.

*hugs* for the bungee'ing emotions.

pttthhhhhhhtttt :P No, you did fine. One thing about lj, I have time to let something sit if I feel myself get prickly when people get mothery :):) I appreciate that you were worried (and that you had the energy and all to be following lj enough to be worried). *hugs*
