The Master Cleanse; Day 3

Day 3 is done! Much easier than the first time. We had to go restock our supplies today. We went to Wild Oats to shop. The food there smelled so damn good, but I didn't want to eat any of it. I'm a little low on energy, but that's expected.

I'm trying to follow the guidelines as close as possible, which means no pills of any sort. I have insomnia and I can't take anything for it. This means endless ours of staring at a television (I rarely watch live television, it's mostly shows I have on my computer). It's starting to get to me, I am so tired today. I'm slowly becoming...Tyler Durden.

The Master Cleanse; Day 2

Today was not as bad as I was expecting. The first time doing the cleanse, the second day was really hard. I had some hunger pangs around dinner time, but nothing too intense.

Tomorrow I will start really detoxing. There are some fun symptoms like; cravings, tiredness, irritability, physical aches, pains, nausea, vomiting, burning eliminations.

Not much else to report.

The Master Cleanse

Today I started The Master Cleanse, again. For 10 days (at least, I may go longer) I cannot eat anything...at all. Let me break it down:

Night before: Laxative tea
Morning: Saline solution (2 tbs sea salt and 32 oz water)
Day: 100 oz Lemonade (8 oz water/2 tbs organic grade B maple syrup/2 tbs freshly squeezed organic lemon juice)
Night: Laxative tea

Yeah. Sounds like a blasty blast, eh?

I'll update this daily.

My Boss, David Brent.

After watching The Office, I've noticed many similarities between the Regional Manager of Wernham Hogg and my very own Director of Commissions. We will call him Ron for this blog's sake. There are some distinctive differences, but they are so small in number there is no reason to share.

The similarities are astonishing; from the pear shaped body, to the goatee. They are even in the same age bracket; thirty ni....yeah thirties. A coworker and I often reference David's infamous dance after hearing Ron say something unintelligent. I will give him credit for at least trying to fool us into thinking he's a hard-working, caring manager.

Ron is the same way with; guns, managing (McDonald's to be more specific), or anything you ask him about as David is with; Music, comedy and being an entertainer. Often times during meeting he will make reference to his "shit kicking boots." A pair of old, dirty cowboy boots. "These boots used to be white," is also heard often. The irony is he never actually accomplishes a damn thing.

I'm called into his office several times throughout the week to; help him with his iPod, download spider solitaire, or anything else to distract him from his actual work. Many promises made, none of them ever kept. Perhaps this is a contributing factor to my lack of motivation to do well here.

New look

Staring at monitors all day, everyday has ruined my eyes. 5 years ago at my last eye exam I had 20/18 vision (this is better than 20/20 for those of you who aren't familiar with how they score it). A few weeks ago I decided that it was time for another exam. Turns out over the last couple years my vision has gone to hell. The doctor told me I have 20/35...crushed my heart a bit when those words made their way to my brain. I ordered the prescription and pick out the frames. The 4-5 day time frame they gave me turned into 15 days. Not to worry, they were worth the wait.

I decided on the typical "Emo" or "Indie" style as they were the best fit for my facial structure. I like them, and I guess that's all that really matters. I almost went with some Ladies Frames. Now that I have them, I'm glad I didn't. I was thinking they were going to be "reading" glasses or just something I wore while working. I'm thinking they are going to be an all day everyday kind of glasses.
