yesterday i failed to drink enough water. really, now, when will i learn? so after work and before my doctors appointment, with a half an hour to waste, i dragged myself to Big Chicks and ordered a cranberry juice and a glass of water. the juice tasted like concentrated sugar and lime. the water tasted like it came out of a rusty toilet. gross. i couldn't swing it. so i went to the doctor still parched and with a steadily growing headache. finally got home at 10pm at which point i forced two cups of water and one bowl of veggie broth with egg noodles into my gut. barf.

today: lots of water! lots and lots of water! also, mint lentils for breakfast.
