the green juice is actually quite tasty, except that it has cucumber in it. still tolerable though. if i were not anti-cucumber, it would be really good.

so i've been eating really terribly lately and gaining weight due to reduced activity post-surgery... i need to start eating better and logging again. someone i know did this juice cleanse and really seemed to like it, so i thought, hey, maybe i should do that as a reset to get me back on a better food track.

so here i am with 3 days worth of juice. no solid food or added sugar till saturday, here we go! naturally i should blog this.

coffee is out, b/c i require sugar for that, but i have some fruity green tea that's fine w/o sweeteners, so i don't have to go into caffeine withdrawal.

each day has 6 juices to drink in order:
1. green juice
2. pineapple apple mint
3. green juice
4. spicy lemonade
5. carrot apple beet
6. cashew milk

i am completely unfit emotionally for anything today.

so far this week:
- stressed out trying to juggle PT and other post-surgery appts with work.
- frustrated by my continuing laptop woes and inability to actually do work, and it looks like i'm going to have to get my laptop reimaged YET AGAIN, making the 4th time i have to reinstall and set up all my stuff in the past few months.
- winter malaise starting in + lack of exercise not doing anything for my mood.
- completely PMSing and ready to cry at the drop of a hat anyway.
- and then news this morning of J.D.'s passing. (i didn't know him well, only met him a few times years ago, but he was beloved by a great many people i know.)

fuck cancer.

at least monday night was full of chef franc awesomeness.

listening to god's gallipoli now, and thinking about greg's continuing struggles.

please be well and love each other, all.

- oh yeah, and let's not forget all the Occupy shenanigans (not the fun kind) going on.
- and the fact that i still have pain from my surgery and PT.

i keep meaning to write something up about burning man. i don't know why it's so hard for me to sit down and write here...
