What was I thinking???

I noticed on my schedule that my next day OFF work is Sept 19... and that's a Sunday. I guess the only reason that's free is because someone else must have signed up for it. Not that I didn't try I'm sure. ACK! Let me reiterate... I'm a freakin' idiot for doing that! And I'm tired! And people are stupid. ARGH! And my dog is loud, chewing caps off plastic bottles behind me.

Wow, what a biiiyotch session! I need to get to writing... but the thought process is over-processed by 9pm.

All I thought about today was how much it would cost to buy only organically grown stuff and eat right. I think it was the Vegetarian Today magazine someone left in the break room that started this whole train of thought. I think it was the recommended daily allowance comparison thingie I saw. It was comparing our (US) Western Diet with what's truly Heart Healthy. Let's see if I can recreate the comparison with a table here:

WESTERN DIETHeart Healthy
FATS & OILS:
35-40% of total caloric intake15% total caloric intake
SUGAR:
35 tsp/dayLess than 10 tsp/day
CHOLESTEROL:
400 mg/dayLess than 50 mg/day
SALT:
12-15 gr/dayLess than 5 gr/day
FIBER:
10 gr/day40 gr/day


So that's got me to thinkin.... and I think that's when I got tired....ZzzZZzzzz
