Day 4: Sorry for the delayed update!

So, it's been brought to my attention that I don't know all that there is to know about the world... OMG! Really?!?! Never KNEW that! Regardless, here's some brain food to chomp on while you take your next calcium supplement or fall for the same old trick of "you don't have to eat your veggies, just drink this!" http://www.senseaboutscience.org/data/files/Celebrities_and_Science_2011.pdf

Interesting stuff. It was a day full of adventures for my body. I woke up, feeling great, but completely unmotivated to write my novel, like I had planned. (Anybody know a good way to overcome creative writer's block) I can sit down to paint and be inspired in seconds, but damn that novel's really killing me. Not even the fact that I want it done by my next birthday is motivating me any longer. I ought to find something...

Either way, I have come to the conclusion that eating dairy even two hours before I work out, makes my stomach queasy. Tip of the day: avoid holiday chocolate and egg nog two to three hours before you work out. I am hoping this doesn't apply to everyone. Maybe it's a tolerance thing and building up to it.

Another bit of brain food: I started watching the show The Mentalist and my fascination for the mental health system has just tripled! I am excited to learn more about the philosophy behind psychology and therapy and what does the "talking-cure" actually do for you.

Mantra for Day 5: Refocus and revise your agenda. If the long term and short term goals are not amounting to what you want them to amount to, maybe they are not what you want, in the first place.
