"You know what? We're closed. Happy birthday to me."

Weird moment: this guy working at Subway today somehow recognized me *and* remembered me by name, because of an Aikido class I took a while back. The weird part? I only went to the very first day of said Aikido class, and then I later dropped it b/c I didn't have time or money for it! The idea that somebody would recall me from *ONE DAY* of class where we didn't even do anything is pretty boggling. O_o;;;

My latest insane idea to make myself even more busy than I already am: apply to do a show on campus radio. LMAO!! But seriously, I get an absurd amount of pleasure just from talking on the lousy CB radio when I'm working for DDS, so radio seems like it'd be a fun idea and a good next logical step. I've always wanted to see what doing a radio show would be like, and I can also use it as a vehicle to spread J-rock frenzy to the unwashed masses. Ooooohohohoho!!

I get paid for Minijob tomorrow. W00t!

I think I need to start calling the friends that I don't see enough of and making them do lunch with me on a semi-regular basis. I have so much time to kill between classes that I figure I should use it for something. ;p

Oh, random health question: does anyone have any ideas as to what might cause an upset stomach over several days? I've had some mild stomach problems for the past week or so, but I don't have any other symptoms of illness, and I don't think I've eaten anything that would cause it.

Jeez, I'm annoying. ::rotfl:: I'll probably stop posting like an idiot so often once I have some real homework to do. :D

P.S. Did anyone else see the MOTD tunneling underground on Buffy last night and think of Bugs Bunny? OMG THE LOONEY TUNES ARE COMING TO EAT SUNNYDALE! :O

About your stomach question...it could be a bunch of reasons. Too much caffeine, especially if you drink a lot of caffeine in the morning or an empty stomach, stress, greasy food...

I used to drink a cube of Pepsi every few days...but it screwed up my stomach badly. I'm down to maybe one soda a day, and it's helped tons...

Stress. For me, anyway. Whenever anything stresses me out, my stomach becomes incredibly tense and nauseous, and I also get acid indigestion. Everyone deals with stress in different ways, though. And the above comment is pertinent as well: soda has lots of chemicals, sugar, and caffeine, which are all hard on your stomach. If you're drinking a lot of it, you should probably cut at least half of it out of your diet. I drink tea for caffiene, and 1-2 diet sodas per day.

In all honesty, cutting out a lot of fat, salt, and cholesterol, as well as refined sugar, from one's diet helps with mood and fatigue levels, and also how your stomach feels. Cooked veggies and some low-acid fruits also help me. I find that if I run out of fruit before I get a chance to go to the store, I feel like ass until I can have some.

That's kind of funny that you mention food, b/c I think I've been eating *better* in recent weeks than usual! Watching Graham Kerr on TV has had James all hyped about making our food healthier and less fatty, and it's gotten a lot better already.

I guess the main thing is that I haven't changed my habits in any way I can think of (other than the healthier food, which should be a *good* thing), so it's kind of hard to pinpoint what's triggering it. :)
