Happiness is a frozen Margarita and peanuts at Texas Roadhouse -- compliments of a Christmas gift card. This is a semi-annual treat. Seldom enough that I forget that the first sip is BRAIN FREEZE. I thought my temples would touch the inside corners of my eyes and the bridge of my nose would reach through to the base of my skull. I was so numb that my focus wasn't and my breathing almost stopped. I didn't think I would be able to move -- ever again.
After a few minutes the freeze began to thaw, focus came back and head parts went back into their normal places. Whew! Six months from now I'll probably do it again. I am not one to learn from experience. I sort of just make it up as I go along and don't make the realistic adjustments that are necessary in life. I fumble a lot. Get hurt a lot -- feelings that is. And in general just don't pay attention to life.
