The placebo effect hath endeth. I'm not mad about that though because now I know that when I'm getting any energy boost it is because the detox is working. I know it's ended because despite my best efforts I dozed off on the way home today.
I'm going to try to remedy that by not over sweeting tomorrow. I had two packages of machine cupcakes which, while delicious, probably have way too much sugar than any person should consume and sugar might be my problem in general.
Poetry went well. We had a couple features which rocked our mic. After the features the open mic kind of devolved into chaos, but that's fine.
Here are the new ingredients I've added (or will be adding) to the Elixir of ease in the morning. I'm not sure what the difference between regular Echinacea and Super Echinacea is, but I reckon I'll find out when the Echinacea I have runs out. The Milk Thistle, as I mentioned before, is for liver health and the Cinnamon flavoring (with actual flecks of cinnamon) is for inflammation.
So far the status has been quo as far as pain management. Since the orthopedic surgeon doesn't want to do the surgery that would hopefully alleviate my wrist/hand issues I have to deal with it on my own... another goal of the detox.
Our roommate saw me mixing drops of each of the extracts into the bottle I use and called me an apothecary. I'm not against this. :) It's sort of true anyway.
I've been writing more lately. Nothing ground breaking, but fun. I'm working on a collection of Sleep related pieces. I'm not sure if I would call them poems or prose poems or what, but I'm sort of just word vomiting on the page for now. But it's good!
Thank you for reading,
Az
