sweet potato a no no

Food allergies are an evil thing especially when the food you're allergic to is something you love to eat. If worst happens, I'm gonna be violently ill in about 2 hours *sighs* See it's all because I got some of the chicken and vegies on offer in the deli section for my hot dinner tonight. I've had about a tablespoon full of sweet potato. I"m praying sucha small amount will not affect me. I guess we will know soon enough. Was fun trying to expalin that chucking up wasn't going to make any difference because by the time I'm feeling the effects the food is all digested and the chemical reaction is in my system and jsut needs to be rode out. Lat time I had it and was ill was about 5 years back I think. I'm very careful but it took me eating half a piece and checking the color against the pumpkin to realize what it was.

Oh well. I'm just hoping that expecting the worse isn't going to also make me ill.

Work tonight was busy. Well that's also my own fault as i raided my excess stock for stuff I needed in the store. I'll finish tomorrow.

I have been working on the start of my Bleach fic in my head and think I have it sorted. Gonna start that soon. After I post rp...then I'm going to curl up and try to get some sleep just in case I don't get sleep later :(

Oh gods, half of what I'm allergic to is stuff that I love. And most of my allergic reactions are unfortunately of the "send me to the hospital" variety, so I can't even risk them and suffer gladly. Tree nuts, shellfish, sesame stuff, and a preservative in cheap ice cream - one of them will probably be the death of me. Fortunately I could care less about fresh tomatoes or spicy food most of the time (*almost didn't catch typo and would have said "spic food"*)

I'm so thankful I'm not deadly allergic to things. I wish everyone had less allergies and were able to enjoy the foods/things they wanted. My mum's allergic to shellfish too. Are you not able to eat any nuts at all?

Peanuts aren't true nuts, so they're safe. But nothing else - no walnuts, almonds, cashews, hazelnuts, macademia nuts...yeah.

I'm allergic to nuts and don't like hot dogs. And I prefer girls. Go figure.

Damn that seriously sucks about the nuts *snugs* But yes, go figure with everything else *laughs*
