I’d like to speak to the manager!!!

Wanna know the best way to start the weekend?

Wake up with fucking GOUT!!!

It’s very, very, very painful.

Imagine if someone were shoving an ice pick into the side of the ball of your foot.  AND.  You have to walk around while it’s happening.

I spent the day trying to determine what I ate this week that would have triggered it.  It’s been since last summer since I’ve dealt with it.

So I hit the google. 

And it turns out all the things that I ate on Tuesday at Adam’s restaurant are triggers. 

Oysters.  Salmon.  Roe (fish eggs), scallops (we had fried and grilled). 

Turns out the reason I didn’t like scallops before was because I enjoyed walking. 

My friend Michelle was gracious enough to agree to pick up my prescription for me, so that it was waiting for me when I got home tonight.

Now keep your fingers crossed the steroids don’t keep me awake and that the gout goes away fast.
