the combination of cool temperatures (after a week of sweating my face off in Oregon) and cold/flu-like symptoms has me possessed by a manic kind of energy

honestly I think the ibuprofen has a bigger impact than the cough syrup ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It can be really frustrating reading about illnesses on Wikipedia because you can SEE where the battles have been.
Like, "Some[footnote][footnote] low-quality[footnote] studies [footnote][footnote][footnote] have shown[footnote] vitamin C to be better than placebo[footnote][footnote][footnote][footnote] in some cases[footnote]"

I'm lookin' forward to making chicken stock tomorrow. Feels like I'm constructing a missile in my garage that I'm gonna launch at an enemy in *precisely* 24 hours.

Did I mention I went to the grocery store today? Picked up food for the week and some cough syrup and when I had to present my ID (because they want to make sure it's only adults making meth) the cashier took my ID and automatically punched in my DOB while saying "I hope you feel better soon ):"
And then in the parking lot a couple offered to return my cart for me
so I guess I must've LOOKED sick is what I'm saying ^^;;

The final car chase is probably my favorite part of the whole movie just because it contains so many absurd stunts and Looney Tunes bits.
So you get a lot of great instances of my favorite thing about the movie, which is Super Weird Shit Happens All Around The Blues Brothers And They Don't React

See, there's a subtext to The Blues Brothers that Jake and Elwood are *literally* on a mission from God, it's not just an excuse. So the random shit and goofy stunts isn't just Saturday Night Live jokes or Looney Tunes logic, it's LITERALLY, TEXTUALLY miraculous.
Or, to put it another way, God caused a 1979 Dodge Monaco to spontaneously ramp a cop car.

Also, this reading of the movie casts the cops and the military in the role of servants of the forces of evil
which is nice
