Spoiler alert, she finds the ball
Breaking Muscle posted an article on the top ten foods to fight inflammation. I'll not be re-introducing beans (for a number of reasons), but most of these could stand to have better representation in my diet. I think I saw hemp seeds at Costco last time I was there. I've fought the smoothie/juicing trend for a long time because I really do think it's not always helpful to drink one's calories. But when I'm dealing with such massive amounts of inflammation, I can't help wondering if this might not be a bad avenue to explore, even if just temporarily. I did feel a bit better (and lost several inches of abdominal inflammation) when I was on the pureed-food SCD experiment. Hm.
On The Toast a couple days ago, there was a discussion about public bathroom etiquette, and a reader posted the comment that an employee she supervises used to hole up in the handicapped stall and write Star Trek fanfiction out loud. OH MY GOD why does this stuff never happen to me? No, no, I get the bathroom where the same person stinks it up every damn morning before 8:30am. I get the bathroom where the cleaning staff left vomit on the door of the second stall for four days before I finally called in a complaint. I get the bathroom where the accessible stall is constantly being used by (usually freshman or sophomore) women who use it to administer their morning prep including curling their hair, yes, despite the fact that they somehow made it to campus sans make-up and the whole room smells like shit because the same person stinks it up every damn morning before 8:30am. Some people get the equivalent of real-time Star Trek fan fiction podcasts and I get that. Typical.
I'm back at work today, but am wearing sunglasses at my desk because Jesus everything is so bright. Also, I have zero appetite which is not great because even though I have rock solid blood sugar stability, I need to eat eventually but man it's hard for me to force down food when I'm not feeling it.
To be honest, I'm considering leaving here early. I have two busy weekends in a row coming up (one of which includes my fall trip to Indianapolis and the other which includes a visit from
mckitterick's folks and my second visit to the Renaissance Festival), and then starting October 13, the other secretary is gone for two weeks which means no time off for me unless I am bleeding out my eyeballs or worse.
A friend of mine sent me this video, which is awesome and going in my eventual Tumblr collection, "Dogs."
Update: 11:58am Okay, yeah, making myself eat some lunch was a really bad idea.

Man, I don't even like doing my hair/makeup in the same area as my own partner's stink.. let alone stranger stank. Yuck.

FUCKING THIS. I just don't get it. I know the dorms have almost all converted to shared en suites. So it's not like they're all sharing nasty bathrooms anymore. Why are they doing their morning toilette IN WESCOE HALL?
