I'm playing that game again where I load a revolver haphazardly with all the different things that might make me feel better and then pull the trigger as fast as I can until I do. Food, drugs, sex, music, sleep, exercise, anything! I just load it up with different combinations and go.
Sometimes it works. Not [...]

to my health, part IV: the revolver
To my health, part III: the hatred
(My first attempt at typing anything of great length on the T-Mobile G1. We'll see how it goes.)
I had to go to three different places to drop off my stool samples due to doctor office error. The people in these places all ask the same questions and require the same things. All things my doctor [...]
to my health
It's so strange how having a child (or anyone important to you, I imagine) in your care can change the way you look at your entire life.
Specifically, I'm talking about my health. Medical and physical issues have long since been a source of severe irritation and, sometimes, incapacitation. In the past, I've been content to [...]

I'm fat
I'm fat. Yeah, I'm just figuring this out now. I guess I'm slow too.
It's not serious. But it's borderline. No. Fuck it, it's serious.
Most importantly, I simply don't like the way I look. I don't like the way I look dressed and I really don't like the way I look naked. Well except for that [...]
Cleanse Progress
Body
I went 48 hours without solid food. Then I starting eating one meal a day testing both my food addiction and my potential food allergies. I had to stop the "toxin flush" portion of the cleanse because it made getting to work in the morning absolutely impossible since I needed to spend about 2 hours [...]
body cleanse progress
The body portion of this Cleanse is going quite well. I've also learned that a drastically reduced calorie lifestyle can really make a difference in how I feel.
Pros:
I have lots of energy. Lots!
My Libido has increased (I guess this is a Pro. Ugh. Send provisions, or at least photos of them! Stat!).
I feel lighter on [...]
mind over matter
Right now I'm starving. However, I know that I'm not hungry. I've gone much longer than this without food before without even starting to feel hungry. But I'm restless. And my body equates that with hunger and it shouldn't. That's only one of the many reasons for this cleanse.
The "body" portion is basically a very [...]
a cleansing ritual
Today I'm starting a cleansing ritual: body, mind, soul. The details of how and why are quite personal and complicated. But I'll tell bits and pieces as I feel like I can. The process itself isn't even that straight forward. Some of it is clear, others have to be invented as I go along. It's [...]
