Whew.

Being happy is exhausting. Maybe I need that fourth cup.

Or maybe I should smoke some pot. I hear that shit makes you happy, too.

  1. As I was eating a rice cake (because I've cut out wheat) last weekend during a group ride, someone who I respect quite a bit looked me straight in the eye and told me that he'd read an article somewhere saying that eating rice cakes is bad.

    Though I still personally think that eating a rice cake over a piece of bread is marginally better (and that some diet practices are obviously better than others), I am starting to go back to my old thinking that outside of food allergies, a sensible diet can be made from eating sensibly, with minimal bias needed towards any food coming from as close to the source as possible.

    Does that mean I'm going to start eating wheat again? No - because it's working for me. But I've been reminded once again that the chance that any more than 2% of the advice out there on the Interwebs or in the bookstore is valid are probably slim.

    Oh and I love coffee. But only before noon, and then no caffeine after that. This allows me to sleep later on. It works for me.
