Reflections After Another Year of Life
This past Sunday was my 27th birthday. Damn, I’m getting old. Okay, okay I realize I’m not ~that~ old. However, I am three years away from 30, and I’m closer to 40 than I am to 13. Not only that, I’m starting to feel the age in my joints. God save my poor knees. All …

What It’s Like Living In Cali (so far)

Last Week’s Depression Funk (How I Got Out of It)
Last week was a weird week for me. I found myself in a funk, struggling to get out of bed, with little motivation to do anything, and not as friendly as I typically like to be. I felt depressed again. It hit me out of nowhere. I was in a bad mood more often than …

Two Weeks On A Vegan Diet
For the diet aspect of 75 Hard, I’ve gone from eating what used to be my usual diet, sans processed and fast food, to a vegetarian diet, to now being on a full-fledged vegan diet. My original beginning with 75 Hard was 65 days ago. Wow. I feel as if I have come a very …
