Today I woke up and could breathe but not speak. This was both a large improvement and a complete polarity shift from when I went to bed. The voice has come and gone through the day, but I remain enfrogged. *reepk*

We bought nose tissues yesterday. I opened the box sometime around or after eight pm that evening. By a bit before midnight the following day, I had gone through three and a half inches of Kleenex. I measured from the top inside of the box to where the unused tissues were. I would like to appeal to the management; there's a bad leak on the property.

Racked the lime melomel yesterday. Had to do it by hand, the autosiphon won't fit in the one-gallon jugs. (So if you get this stuff, [livejournal.com profile] qarylla, don't bother to get one. Unless you want to play with it.) Which meant that I got a half-mouthful of the unaged mead. Which was very very sharp; I nearly took it for vinegar for a moment before I realised that it was just very puerile alcohol. We will let it age. A lot.

Started the braggot today. Based loosely on this and that and some comments that got made in [livejournal.com profile] homebrewing a while back about Egyptian beer spices. Mother grant it comes out well. At the moment it's being cute; if one goes into my kitchen when it's quiet, it's possible to hear it in the corner cheerfully saying poppoppoppoppoppoppoppoppoppoppoppoppoppoppop as it madly and merrily ferments away and emits bubbles with terrifying alacrity.

[livejournal.com profile] teinedreugan and [livejournal.com profile] brooksmoses have each separately theorised that I may have a cold and a massive allergy attack overlaying each other. I just want it to stop before my poor nose falls off. It really should not be that colour (by which I mean bright pink).
