Bring It

Sometimes I get bored with life in suburbia and I'm forced to do something to keep things interesting.

One day a few years ago, it occurred to me that I had no bad habits. I'm not a smoker. Not a drunk. No drugs...not even the marijuana. Nope, never. Not even once in college. Mostly because I'm a 33 year old commuter student. But still. That was the day I decided to take up drinking coffee. I know. Caffeine! What an animal, I was.

Yesterday I decided that I'm not challenging myself enough. I need to do something to really push myself to the brink, to see how much I can handle. Enough lollygagging already! After a productive brainstorming session, I've come up with something that will require all the mental and physical self-control I can muster: for the next 30 days, I will not eat one bite of pasta.

Out. Of. Control.

I'm neurotic today because...
...somewhere between P90X and Thursday, I lost what was left of my sanity.
