  2. My new addiction

    For the first time in my life I have an addiction that is good for me!!

    KOMBUCHA!! Yummmmo!!!

    That gnarly liquid is awesome! I've been having a bottle every morning. At $3.45 a bottle, it's not nearly as costly as my old daily Starbuck's ritual, $11 a day (coffee cake, breakfast sandwich, and a large flavored mocha!)

    I started yesterday by beginning The Master Cleanse . I did it once before, for only 3 days, so I am going to play that part by ear and listen to my body about when ...

  5. UnderDog!

    Over the past week (while in Maine) I've realized that nothing pleases me more than being underestimated.

    Wah???

    Stick with me here. It's a two sided coin.
    I can't stand the feeling of being pitied, or judged, or misunderstood.
