Spent a good deal of today on the couch. I had a headache hangover this morning, which is a bit unusual for me. The hangover, that is. Usually, I don't drink to the point where I'm pained the next morning - I've been good about moderating myself. But today, my mouth tasted like something crawled in it and died. I woke up early, drank water, and went right back to sleep. I don't think I even started my day until maybe 1:00 PM.

After I did get myself going though, I ended up making Chinese dumplings this afternoon, something I haven't done in a really long while. Very tasty and very filling. Suffice it to say, shortly after eating my fill, I found myself back on the couch.

Every time I make these dumplings, I laugh to myself at how vague some of the instructions are. And soon after, I laugh again at myself for ever doubting my mother, because of the instructions I saw on a package of frozen dumplings.
