I am sick today. I had one very strong and delicious margarita followed by a weak hurricane at last night’s cookout and they did me in. No idea why, but my digestive system is abjectly opposed to all forms of alcohol. It goes straight to my head and then straight out my…. Well, let’s just say that it acts as a superlaxative. You’d think by now I would learn, but apparently I’m not that smart forever optimistic that this time will be different. It wasn’t.
So, since I was up all night in the bathroom, I had plenty of time to divert myself with nonsense. Just in case you want some nonsense to divert you from your fireworks and festivities, here are my finds.
1. Ikea Name Generator (found via How About Orange) If you’ve ever giggled over the crazy Swedishesque names Ikea comes up with for their items, this site is for you. Go ahead. Enter your name and see if you are a dresser, end table, or bed.
Okay, I’m still sick and haven’t finished my Ree meets Marlboro Man saga, so I’m going to run! If you have any interesting links to share with us, please do!

Oh…sorry you have been sick. I don't drink hardly ever, and when I have more than one…I pay. It just doesn't sit well with me either.
Feel better.

Sorry you're not feeling great, Beth! That's no fun.
That Swedish Furniture Name Generator cracks me up. Too funny!
Jenny says

Kathy @ Creative Home Expressions says
Yes, I've found that my body has rebelled against alcohol as well. I'm okay with a couple of glasses of whatever that is mild {like wine or vermouth} and that's it. Hope you are feeling better, Beth!

Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well. Drink lots of water!
I took the Ethan Allen quiz and I got Villa the first time and Loft the second. So I decided to take it a third time (hehe) and I got Villa again. 🙂 Fun quiz, thanks for sharing.
