fast fiasco, other stuff.

today i had to call out sick due to some pretty awful stomach pains complete with diarrhea. i think it was largely due to my failed master cleanse fast that i could only handle for 2 days as opposed to the requisite 10. i figured, if beyonce could do it then so can i. but i imagine beyonce has a more flexible schedule than i do? well anyway, by

I've never done one of those cleanses despite my utter curiosity exactly for that reason: they're really not doable if you're holding a job, or have a schedule where you have to be somewhere at regular intervals of the day.

They're cleanses, right, so they're supposed to clean you inside out which means several trips to the bathroom a day. I'd save it for a laid back vacation, but alas as every vacation I've taken in the past five years is a traveling/stress filled one, it's pretty much a no-starter for me for the rest of eternity.

but vacations are for eating!

actually i thought i should hold off on the fast until i had left my job in march. but i have some interviews coming up, and perhaps i won't have that time off afterall. but anyway, i had done a 2-week detox juice fast a whiles back and was perfectly OK with it. i guess master cleanse's combination of lemon juice and cayenne pepper just didn't match my body :P the drink itself tastes pretty good, but apparently i just couldn't handle having 6+ glasses of it a day.
