I drank a gallon of the ocean this morning...

It's 3:15 and my head does hurt a little. I've begun my fast. The Master Cleanse. The lemonade, cayenne pepper, maple syrup 5-day fasting experience. I have not eaten since last night and am sipping slowly a concoction that my office mate thought was piss. But look closely! There's cayenne pepper!

As usual, I overdid it with the spices. Went overboard with 7/10ths of a teaspoon in the old 70 oz. bottle, and and the red powder gathers at the bottom menacingly.

My mornings will start with a salt-water bath. Not the kind in the tub, but the internal kind. I drank 1 quart of luke warm salt water and "cleansed" my colon... no more details necessary. That will be my morning ritual for the next week. After the ocean, the lemonade with pepper and syrup tastes absurdly delicious.

I'm not starving and miserable -- but I'm tingly and the temples throb a little. I hope for euphoria and ecstasy by the third day. And salty, gleaming innards.
