Get a hot rice sock on your neck, take naproxen or the big mega Ibuprofen, and sip tea. Best thing for it, if it's just muscles or stress. Stuff like that can get started with the stupidest poo poo, happens to everyone. If any non-medical asks, just say you fought a bear.

I remember going there, getting a sandwich that was like a stick of salami with a piece of toasted rye on either end, and wondering what the gently caress I was supposed to do with it.

That's also the place that ended up giving Bobby Hill gout, right?

Pretty sure it was this place. To be fair, my memory exaggerated it, but about half the rolls feature fruit or cilantro & jalapeño or something else that I don't want on sushi most of the time.

Good idea. Definitely consume food. Also, remember to inhale, as well as exhale, at regular intervals.


Yes, thank you.

Okay, since there seems to be some confusion, here's how you make a Rice Sock, or a magical microwavable heat pack. Take the biggest tube sock you have (or other tubular cloth structure), fill with enough rice to make a nice neck-pillow loaf, but don't over-fill. Don't want it to explode. Tie end of sock off. Microwave 1 minute on HIGH, flip and massage to evenly distribute heat. Microwave another 30 seconds, wrap in light towel to avoid burning yourself. Keeps warm for an hour or two, perfect for heat therapy. Combine with muscle rub as desired. Re-use until the rice gets wet or starts to smell, then discard rice.

Congrats! I've been out of work for 18 months but started a new job finally this week. Just moved into a house with a proper lease after 6 months of week-to-week airbnb accommodation. All my kitchen stuff has been in self-storage out of state since March and is arriving here in Colorado next weekend. Feels p good.

What does this mean "burn through your stomach lining?" That doesn't make any sense.

But 500mg of naproxen DOES help kick the poo poo out of a migraine in conjunction with a sumatriptan tablet.

Don't drink while using Naproxen and don't use them if you have a history of ulcers or inflammation of the stomach lining. Also don't use them for long periods of time.

Yeah, but that's literally any NSAID. Ibuprofen is less likely to cause GI side effects but generally you only see them in people taking large doses for long periods of time, like people with arthritis. If you're really worried about it over the long term take a proton pump inhibitor with it since the main cause of symptoms seems to be blocking the signal that turns off acid production.

You're better off in the short term taking Zantac (ranitidine) as it works immediately; PPIs. We'd a few days before they have a therapeutic effect.

Blue Mountain Coffee is a good gift. It's mild, smooth and has a little floral kick. I quite enjoy it (it is a bit over-hyped though). Try and learn a bit about the coffee growing and roasting process! Maybe even visit a grower, I've heard some offer tours (though it might be a bit of a drive).

And maybe since you're about to get your rear end kicked by a hurricane, go buy a yoga mat, backpack, and snacks to make your stay in the hurricane shelter as pleasant as possible. Then go get a drink. Not too much, because being hung-over in a hurricane sucks.

Right, and it will help the evil naproxen not burst out of your chest alien-style as some people fear.

Also, going to be in New Orleans for a week or so. I'm staying by Canal and Bourbon streets and should have most evenings free. What should I eat and drink? For once I have coworkers with me and they are pretty open if unadventurous without prodding. My goal is to eat a gallon of gumbo at a minimum and maybe get drunk and vomit on the street at least once.

Mrs. Squashy's mom is in Kingston, too.

As for places, try asking your driver! The cab drivers in Jamaica were full of opinions. In the Kingston area, stuff by the side of the road is a good option, because it's a less-touristy area.

Good luck with the storm!

RECOMMENDED:

BUTCHER/COCHON: Trendy Donald Link charcuterie/curing lunch joint. Get the fantastic muffuleta or buckboard bacon sandwich. If you have a party and they're not squeamish split an order of the headcheese.

PECHE: Trendy seafood place also by Donald Link. Pretty much all the food is fantastic here.

JOHNNY SANCHEZ: Trendy new Mexican place by Aaron Sanchez and Johnny Besh. Split the pig ear chilaquiles and get goat cheese-stuffed squash blossom tacos for yourself. Fanastic food, and the cocktails are great too.

MURIEL'S: Old school fine dining fantastic seafood. I had the pecan-encrusted drum fish. They also have a wonderful cucumber martini and make great sazeracs.

CANE AND TABLE: Trendy new riffs on classic New Orleans food, bar menu includes a lot of 1800's cocktails which are... interestingly different


HAVENT BEEN BUT HEARD GOOD THINGS:

SHAYA: Won the James Beard award for best new restaurant, Israeli food

COMMANDER'S PALACE: Fancy dining, it's where Paul Prudhomme got his start as a chef


IF YOU JUST WANT TO GET DRUNK AND STUMBLE AROUND BOURBON STREET:

PIRATE ALLEY CAFE: Old landmark divey bar, famous for absinthe

LAFITTE'S: Old landmark divey piano bar, super dark. Sometimes the pianist is great, sometimes they suck

MOLLY'S AT THE MARKET

COOPS PLACE: Divey old bar diner, sober up here at the end of the night, they have a pretty good combo plate


AVOID (OR TRY IF YOU WANT TO SAY IT SUCKS FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE):

MOTHERS: overrated po'boys

CAFE DU MONDE: Pre-made box mix stale beignets. Garbage.
