You are what you drink...

So I'm still working on what this blog will look like on a day to day basis (and yes, I hope to update it daily.)

Whilst I'm working on that, here's an article by Jane Brody (of the NYT, yo!) about drinking habits. A quote I like: "...you may never outgrow your need for milk." Essentials found in milk include: "magnesium, potassium, zinc, iron, vitamin A, riboflavin, folate and protein."

Good choices today: yogurt with lunch, about 3 oz.

Zinc! It helps the cold symptoms!!

So I stayed home yesterday and then went to work in the evening for two hours. And now I'm getting ze shower ready so I can go to work today. Naps and zinc. They are good things.

Laughter is the best medicine

Laughing today:

The Ellen Show, esp the part with Diane Keaton and Ellen D's new undewear line--white briefs with words like "thongs are wrong."

Mr. Roger's Neighborhood--for some reason him playing a game with vegetables struck me as very funny.

Harry is back--and I don't mean that Potter boy

Hello! Welcome to my new blog. If you're a Pink Sneakers N'at reader, you may know who Harry is. He's my cold. I am sick and tired of him visiting me...every month, it seems. So this blog is an experiment for me...an exploration in getting better...day by day!

Things I'll talk about (maybe):
  • How 70% of your immunity is in your digestive system (I got this off a Dannon commercial)
  • How your apartment or house could be contributing to your health (says the girl who hasn't moved for twelve years)*
  • How your emotional health affects your physical health
  • How...you can keep writing in bullets forever...
*okay, I lived in Virginia for three years, but almost all my crappe stayed in this here garret. (It truly was cheaper than a storage locker--my rent is outrageously low and I knew I'd be back in da Burgh eventually.)
