January07
ah, fuck it
I don’t think I put this on my new years resolution list but I was going to try and do a 21 day vegan/no-bad-carb thing this month as sort of a cleanse. Low booze, no sugar, no bread, etc., because everything around the holidays was so over-the-top sugary/boozy/bready.
I think 21 days is too long because it is January after all. It felt really good to get everything back to normal there and eat in a nice and clean way for a few days. BUT – January and February are, in my opinion, the lamest months out there. Seems unfair to take away some of the things that make life fun during that time. For example, Travis and I are going to see Sherlock Holmes today (our first bit of alone time in probably 3 weeks) at the fancy eat-in movie theater. What, I’m supposed to order a fruit plate and drink water? No, thanks. I’d like to at least have a beer FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.
I agree with you, there’s no way I’d do those things in Jan/Feb because these months are so dreary that you might drive yourself to INSANITY!
I always tend to lean toward vegan/whole foods/fresh foods eating once the weather turns to spring-like weather since that’s what sounds good and is finally starting to be in season anyway. Maybe March? Enjoy your beer.
Dreary indeed!
