Splitting Headache. Sinus Congestion. No, congestion sounds harmless, more like sinus gridlock. Woozy. Fuzzy. I have the chills. Dry heaving. Well, that was only once and it would have been puking but there was nothing in my stomach.
That was just Day 1 of my Juice Fast.
I would have posted last night as I was planning to do but couldn't see straight. Today I still had an enormous amount of sinus pain but I just got up from a nap and feel a lot better. It was not a "I'm tired nap" but a "Oh my goodness God Lord save me from this pain I'm gonna bury my head in my pillow nap".
I'm still cold all the time despite standing under a hot shower and having the heat turned up. Jeez, I don't remember starting a Heroin habit! I also don't remember having such a strong cleansing reaction at the outset of this cleanse before but I could be wrong. All this is telling me is that my body is getting rid of some serious toxins so it's all good. I'm all for suffering and teeth chattering for a couple of days for the betterment of my health.
Again, I'm quite the healthy person so I can't imagine what a normal person who eats processed foods and drinks and smokes would be like during this. I suppose they'd be in line for a role in the 'Devil Inside' sequel.
Hmm, feeling a lot better, perhaps the writing is easing the pain a bit, whew, man, it sucks when you can't even think straight. I was watching the Knicks tonight and as usual there was a bevy of absurd plays and moments that called for outbursts and cries of disgust but all I could muster from my squinting pained body was a few curls of my lip and a grumble in my throat.
I wanted to write about my experience seeing Meshell Ndegeocello this past weekend but she deserves a post all unto herself, she's that amazing, so I'm gonna hold off.
I did go to Six Flags over the weekend, yay so much fun! It was the last prep day before starting my juice fast so I was a little weak but still feeling good enough to handle the coasters. Tatsu was my favorite with The Riddlers Revenge being a close second. Only problem with Tatsu was that since you're facing downward the whole time my hair kept getting in my face which made it hard to see sometimes although that was nothing compared to a chick in front of me who lost not only some cash but her phone. What a putz.
I suppose you're looking for some snarky remark or deep insightful comment regarding my Amusement Park experience but I can't really say I have one. Not in a ha ha observatory reflective dig out the truth kinda vibe right now. I find it a blessing that I'm able to engage in an activity without a throbbing thud of pain being served upon me at a myriad of acute angles.
I will say that last night I was curled up on my couch and began laughing at the top of my lungs because it hit me that I just began my year on actual rollercoasters which is telling because I know that this year is gonna be one hell of an amazing rollercoaster ride; it's all right in front of me and I can hear the clack clack of the track raising me up to the top of that apex ever so slowly.
I've always known and heard from my invisible little friends that it was gonna come quickly and be quite a ride and now that it's here it's so funny that I actually went to a park for the first time in years just now. Reason I did it was to do research on a writing project I'm working on.
Anyway, I'm gonna go wander around the home and make some cranky Jew noises before collapsing into my pillow.
Begone ye Demons of Dastardly Yuck Yuck!
