today is the first day of mike, ali and i's fast. we are doing ten days, as opposed to the original plan of 15 or so days. mike and i decided to do a longer fast at a later date, and i have decided that the later date will be sometime in spring, probably mid to late spring, when most animals are fasting. thus far i do not feel hungry, though i know both mike and ali do. this concoction of lemonade, maple syrup and cayenne pepper really is a hunger suppressant, for me at least. it is also very spicy when it hits the back of my throat, which is strange. the hunger is supposed to completely subside after three days. after this fast mike and i are going to try to eat a mostly raw foods diet, with lots of legumes and what not. i encourage him to go vegetarian, but he mostly just laughs and says he's going to cut a lot of meat out of his diet, but will never become vegetarian. which i'm glad for, he used to eat lots of crap meat. i'm not sure at what point seafood snuck back into my diet, but i think i will cut that out too. i know whoever reads this really enjoys reading about what i do and do not eat!! but actually writing it all out in my sweet ass, super cool live journal is helping me and i think will continue to help me until this fast is over.

on another note, i'm going to go get tatted up soon. the main piece i want is by banksy, but i don't know if a tattoo artist will actually be able to transfer it to my skin and make it look good. we will see.

also, eden, if you read this, i'm going to ask my mom in a little bit if i can use one of her free flights on southwest. when do you come home from school? because i was gonna aim to come out beginning of april. and i wanna go to san padre island!
