Umhummm. If you'll recall it was mead that Hrathgar and his men were drinking when Grendel caught them all asleep(read passed out cold on the floor) and proceeded to eat several. Beowolf had to save them. Mead. First sip. Too sweet, then it's so easy to drink down....til the next day...or the day after, depending on how much you imbibed....there are things worse, just not many.
can't do mead. too sweet for me even the high end craft meaderies around the country .. schramm etc.. just too sickening sweet.

I am so damn tired. Woke up at 5 am the last two mornings, wide awake, no reason to get up that early, but could not stay in bed.

I think it was the nerves I had about my kid starting high school. He got pretty nervous about 8pm Sunday night. He was a little anxious prior to that, but it really hit him Sunday night and I could smell the fear.

I was a good mom and just dropped him off in the morning despite seeing the fear in his eyes. I did NOT walk him onto campus like I saw other parents doing. (And he did not ask me to, proud of that!)

but now I'm exhausted and wish I still drank and smoked. Both would be really good right now after all the stress!!!

I give up trying to make more money today. I give myself permission to be a bum for the rest of the night and enjoy no longer being super fucking nervous for my kiddo.

that's probably why I like it so much, I love sweet stuff and I love love love honey. So the honey mead stuff i got was both of my favorite things.

I did the qual hits on August 10, got paid for all of them so 'passed' and started the post qual hits on August 11 (did them August 11 and August 12). I've tried to communicate with her. Another worker did and said she was 'nasty' and refused arguments re un-rejecting them.

OH, MY I just looked and now I am at 19 REJECTIONS!
I am terrified now, I have 32 outstanding hits with this requester, all of my qualification hits were approved. I appreciate you responding to let me know. Has she rejected every reviewed hit thus far for you? I wonder if this is just getting free work. So sorry for you having to deal with this, please review the requester to allow others the opportunity for warning. When the hits went up I did 7 or 8 and waited to see if they approved AND if the qual was issued before touching anymore. But 19 rejections after having all qual hits approved and a qual issued on top of not communicating is just bad business. I grew a little worried after seeing the hit posted with 10k hits worth 8k on the top of the hit, so I stopped at 32 and decided to wait for approvals to appear. If free work is the MO, we don't really know for sure yet, then mass rejections before posting all of the work is just not smart. You would think they would hold off on touching them at all until the work was completed and then reject in mass. I am not liking the scared money aspect of this at all.

Yeah but it tastes so beautiful, so consequences be damned.

But dollar store wine is $3 a bottle and mead was $18. Can you guess which one I"m gonna stick to?
You can get a gallon jug, of various flavors at WalMart for 9.99-11.99. And then you can re-use the glass jug to make more wine.
