Day 72 February 21st



            Yesterday Today was a weird day.  I woke up with foggy brain after not sleeping very well at all although I’m not sure that was the cause of the foggy brain.  This has been ongoing for over a year so I decided to Google the words foggy and brain and I learned that in means that may brain is inflamed and this could be caused by a whole plethora of different maladies (from stress to tumors).  I’m pretty sure I have them all.  All I know is that I sat down to start one of my goals (writing something…anything) and I wrote two paragraphs that I have entitled “Ordinary Boringness That Was Vomited From Eric’s Foggy Brain”.  After those two short paragraphs I had a giant headache and couldn’t remember why I ever thought that I could be a writer.
            As far as the goal of walking goes, I still have 5 days to go so get off my back world.  I was pretty hungry yesterday today for no apparent reason, it’s not like I did anything.  So, I ate a bunch of seeds and kefir with “mary’s gone crackers” (they are gluten free, but I’m not supposed to eat that many of them on account of all of the carbs) I didn’t read anything today but did manage to play video games for an hour and then watch a couple hours of TV, so that’s progress, right?
This haze that has overtaken my brain is really getting to me, I think I have early onset Alzheimer’s (I think I’ve said that before, that’s probably a symptom), my short term memory has gone to complete crap, but my long term memory is still quite awesome.  My ability to speak properly and remember words is diminishing at an alarming rate. 
I crashed on the couch in the middle of watching TV (don’t tell my wife, I don’t think she noticed).  Why am I so tired?  I don’t know it yet but I couldn’t sleep very well tonight either.

P.S. Here’s what I ate on day 72:
Breakfast: Quinoa, Egg, Mozz Cheese, Broccoli, Tomato and EVOO Casserole (A.K.A. Quinoamelet)
Lunch: Millet Bread (I’m almost out of that crap and I will never go back, it’s awful) w/ kefir cheese spread, chicken and tomatoes.  Plain Yogurt w/ stevia and cinnamon (favorite part of my day). Raw almonds and pecans, mozz cheese stick, blueberries and raspberries
Dinner: baked stuffed chicken w/ feta cheese, peppers, butter and broccoli w/ garlic olive oil
Snack: the aforementioned kefir with pumpkin and sunflower seeds (raw) and crackers
Pills: way way way too many

P.P.S. I ate too much today

P.P.P.S. Deep within the fogginess there is something witty that should be written here but I can’t seem to see it right now.
