Stinging nettle tea

I went out today too. I had intended to pick some stinging nettles that are shooting up along the roadside. After you dry them out ( in the oven ) you crush them up and then make a tea (well I think it's more of an infusion coz its not really tea). Apparently there aren't too many things more abundant in nutrients than the stinging nettle. So off I went with my little bag, a huntin them nettles. It was freakin cold and started to rain so I turned to plan B and headed to the local gas station store to buy some wine. I handed the girl the cheap bottle of overpriced plonk with a question - "Tell me, is that a good year?" She picked up the bottle and started to investigate the label. I let her be for about ten second before telling her that I was only joking. She took it goodheartedly. She was a sweet young thing and will make some guy happy one day. When I returned to my lair I found myself concerned about the wine bottle that she had been handling with her surgical gloves and proceeded to wash the bottle with soapy water. I stopped halfway and realised I couldn't go down that road. I knew from then on I would be living in constant fear of everything I touched from outside home. I had briefly succumbed to the fear programming. I think I told you that last week I had a stomach problem. It wasn't until Wednesday that I was reading up on the symptoms of the new black death that I realised that one of the first symptoms is exactly what I had, followed some days later by a sore throat and a runny nose followed by shortness of breath and ...etc etc. Today I noticed I had a slight sore throat and I have to say it's a bit of a worry. Having said that, I was up most of last night trying to keep up with all my vlogs, spewing out incessant virus news. I was drinking lots of tea and I know from past history that drinking too much tea gives me a sore throat (I think it's the tannin) So at the moment I am putting it down to that. Time will tell! I still don't really know what to make of this plague. Could it be that it's been unleashed on us and that it is a cover to demolish the existing monetary system and usher in the new world order?

One thing is 100% sure, is that the economic collapse that is just getting started (as I predicted 2 years ago) is something the world has never seen before. A whole new paradigm is going to be put into place. Perhaps the biggest bugbear is going to be how to disarm those 90 odd million Americans of those 400 million guns. I pray to god they put up a fight at least. "It's better to die on your feet than live on your knees" - Emiliano Zapata. The worst case scenario is that this coup d'etat turns into a major war with another (or more than one) nation states, then "Katey bar the door!!" It's over brother... Mad max meets The Road.

Tomorrow, I'm going to go picking those stinging nettles, if its not raining and maybe take a trip down to Lidl to do another form of foraging. Hopefully in the Fruit & Fresh Vegetable aisle I will meet a deranged Armenian (widowed) millionairess and immediately fall in love and run away to her island in the south Pacific to begin a life of drinking and fucking and snorkelling the coral reef (although not all at the same time you understand).
Never leave your dreams brother, never leave your dreams.
