I owe a lot to The Internet; my current paycheck being just one of the small things that is a direct result of being always connected. I’ve shared a lot with the web. Millions of glimpses into my life have made their way to the web directly and indirectly. I’ve been trying to find a [...]

On Sunday the 8th, I had dinner with my girlfriend and that was my plan for the last solid foods until today, the 16th. The 8 day fast became a 6 day fast which is disappointing but I was invited to an event where the food being served was simply unavoidable. I’ll write more about [...]
