veganhotheadIt was a busy weekend...for me.
On Saturday I took part in the march down Spadina for National Anti-Fur Day. I think this was the first demo I'd been to in over a year. Afterwards I lunched with Helen and Ken and Ken's expecting wife. It was pleasant considering all the hurt feelings on Helen's end.
Then on Sunday I met Rob's -ex brother-in-law along with Myles (the nephew) and Maddy (who I haven't seen in over three years). We hung out in Chinatown for Chinese New Year and eventually ended up in Kensington Market. Maddy is going through a shy and awkward phase (but in all fairness she's twelve and face it, she barely knows me anymore). Also pleasant and involved much walking through deep snow and slush.
Of course, I was in agony all Monday and I'm still not back to what I've come to know as normal.
For the good of my health, on the advice of a book I read on the advice of sleep doc, I'm phasing out caffeine, chocolate, white flour (which I more or less already have given up...in theory), aything deep fried...alcohol. Essentially, everything that was making my life tolerable.
My forehead is all broken out and I'm back to my mega-doses and vitamin C and now magnesium.
I really hope this shit starts to work soon. I really, really miss being interesting.

My nana is going to have to go to a home as the docs have agreed she's too sick to take care of herself. That should be an interesting battle.
