My friend Sarah is having fun WITHOUT sweets, for 30 days. Even though this could turn into that scene in Trainspotting with the creepy ceiling baby, I have decided to join her in her efforts. It's always good to do something like this when you're friends are involved, and I don't want to become her Sugar Friend who she feels like she has to avoid, the way alkies avoid their Party Friend, or songs written by Van Morrison. I am not your Brown-Eyed Girl, Sarah. Except that I am. I so, totally am.
Day one was easy. I started Blind School, as you know, and when I start a new day somewhere, I am usually so nervous that I feel too throw-uppy to eat. Done. I'm going to go pass out now.
You're welcome Sarah. I am the wind beneath your wings.

I think this is a grand idea and really wish I could commit ... not quite. I will commit to no soda before yoga as it has me trying to navigate to the restroom in the middle of yoga class -- too tricky with a guide dog. Glad day one went well.
I am glad to hear you made it through your first day. And without sugar? Hmmm. You are insane.
For days 3-5, tell Eric to sleep with one eye open.
You really are (the wind beneath my wings) & (my brown eyed girl).
Thank you for joining me in my quest to stop being addicted to sugar.
Good luck this week and if Blind School starts kicking your cus, find a vending machine and go crazy. I won't mind.
What a good friend you are! Good luck at your first day of school!
omg- remember in "Friends" when Joey stops eating meat because Phoebe starts eating it when she was pregnant. Well I have totally been eating sweets and drinking soda since you have stopped. I never drink soda anymore and hardly eat junk food so its like I have taken over what you used you eat. sort of balancing out the universe. ;)
I wrote that as I drink a cherry pepsi while eating a bag of cheez-its and eyeing my two candy bars that I just bought.
You know how you feel when you ask someone if they saw that episode of "____" last night and they reply that they don't watch tv? That's how I feel right now. I am not giving up tv. I am also not giving up soda. And despite me wanting to be happy for you all, I am like Satan, hoping you fail so we can be miserable together. That's right, I said SATAN. So maybe you should stay away from me and my refrigerator full of disgustingly delicious soda.
