gwynhefar: (Got tea?)
[Error: unknown template qotd]

No coffee. I absolutely hate coffee. As for tea, I've not met one I didn't like, but I like mine with *LOTS* of sugar. And I mean lots. Usually I put 3-4 teaspoons or 5-6 packets of sugar in my tea, if it's black tea. Somewhat less if it's green or herbal tea. I know that pretty much negates any healthy benefit from the tea itself. I'm trying to learn to back off on the sugar, but it's slow going.

I'm famous at work for my entire shelf o' tea. I have an insane variety of teas -- partially because people keep giving me tea and I don't drink it all that often (my usually morning drink of choice is a 20-oz Coke). But when I am in a tea mood it's always nice to have such a plethora of choices.

Oh, and if I ever do go to an actually coffee shop, I always get chai. I don't usually like milk in my tea, but I love chai. Especially with extra cinnamon.

Sleep: 11pm to 3am, 4am to 7am, 8am to 9am

Pain: 7-8

Weather: clear, 60F, 38% humidity, high 60F

Daily BPAL: AQUARIUS 2007
Description: Wisteria, myrrh, anise, galbanum, bryony, and pomegranate.
In bottle: Wisteria, anise, myrrh, and a hint of pomegranate.
On me: Wisteria, myrrh, bryony, with an undertone of anise and pomegranate. Interesting. All the different scents blend and mellow each other out, so that the sum is somewhat unremarkable. Not bad, just not great either. Probably one for the swap pile.

Daily Tarot: 10 of Pentacles, Reversed: Family misfortune; old people may become a burden. Loss of inheritance. Caution against getting involved in projects that are a poor risk.
