Mid-Week Boredom

My back has been killing me for the past four or five months to the point where I have to sleep in the position of a mid-somersault. Ok, I'm lying, but seriously, the day is not far. I'm not sure whether it's the way I sleep or the fact that I spend a good 60% of my day in front of a computer. It's not like I can help it. My thesis isn't going to write itself. And besides, I'm THIS close to finding Josh Duhamel on facebook. I've finally set aside time this Friday to get a massage and I'm looking forward to it with the same giddiness a child has when he hears the sound of the ice cream truck getting closer. Planet Beach has some sort of spa gimmick going on right now that I'll probably fall for, so I'm excited.

My friend, J, experimented in trying to "fix" my back, which involved an intense session of poking and prodding along my spine and finally doing what is called a 'Kirksville Crunch' in osteopathic school. I think it's just a fancy name for essentially cracking my back, but since it will be her profession, I thanked her profusely for Kirsville Crunching me as I felt infinitely better and now I can once again sit in front of my computer, undoing all of her good samaritan work, and start the entire cycle over.

Anyhoo, today is Wednesday which means it is the most insignificant day of the week. It's the day right in the middle where half of your week has probably sucked and now you can look forward to other half of the week sucking just as much, if not more. All is not lost. I plan to go shopping today at the organic food store. I've always been convinced that organic veggies and organic milk taste different than the regular store produce and milk, but I think I'm just biased. We all know that in a taste test, if I was blindfolded, I'd be lucky to even guess what vegetable was in my mouth let alone whether it was in its organic form.

Either way, I'm on a fast food/caffiene/soda sabbatical which means the only things that are going into my body right now are healthy. I'd say the no fast food/caffiene/soda thing is going pretty well as I haven't shot myself in the head yet nor tried to shoplift a 2 liter bottle of Wild Cherry Pepsi under my shirt, so I'm taking that to be a good sign.
