What DO you do with a drunken Sailor?



I think I may have scurvy. I have started to self diagnose, thanks to the Internet, and im beginning to put the symptoms together. I am always tired. I'm always out of breath. I bruise easily. I'm irritable, and don't get along with the other sailors. Well, I'm irritable anyway, but I don't live on a ship in the 1700's. I don't think I get enough vitamin C in my diet. I never eat fruit of any kind, and rarely eat green vegetables. Most of the vegetables I DO eat come from a can. And the only fruit I ever consume is squeezed into a vodka drink. I need someone to start putting vitamins into the quick-fast-in-a-hurry type junk I normally enjoy. Like Hamburger Helper, now "fortified with 11 essential vitamins". You cant put gravy on grapefruit. And green beans only really taste good in a beef stew. So, I guess I'm going to have to live with it. I will start learning a couple of sea-shanties, or maybe get some Flintstones vitamins. I could eat a whole bottle of those. Yarr Matey, yarr.
