Sick as a dog, but not as your dog

Called into sick to work today.  I have a litmus test to see if I am well enough to go to work.  I put my laptop next to me and if the thought of spending time on it (like now) seems like a bad idea, I must be sick. 

So today, instead of getting things done, I will catch up on my Tivo and try not to make a mess of things.  Hope everyone else out there is doing okay.

PaulRSmith.com: New and Improved! Now With Blog Entries!

0622070854I knew I was in trouble when I saw the number of hits go down on this website.  Heck, my own mom gave up on this site.  Well I thought you liked the zen look of a website gone blank.   It brought out a mind like water trance  as you didn't have to work too hard on a website that used to harass you into questions every week. 

Now, I bring you: blog entries!  I should bring out a new marketing campaign!   

It's almost as good as these Nacho and Salsa Combos.  What?  Sounds utterly repulsive?  Try them. Try them.  You will see.  They really taste like corn chips and salsa with a refreshing after taste of mono sodium glutamate.  Wash down with a Mr. Pibb!  I know most people have not eaten such fine cuisine since college.  Treat yourself.  There are just some days you really need to treat yourself to some preservatives.

A Quick Update

  • Script Frenzy - not going well at all.  I'm still less than 1000 words and I need to be at 20,000 by the end of the month
  • Jade's Website - I made a couple of updates and posted a really cute video.  Check it out here.
  • My Java class - me and 7 other people who decide the best place to be between 6pm -10pm on a Friday night - is to learn Java at a community college. 
  • Running 5km in really hot weather- I'm doing really well.  I did 29.18 this week.  I still want to get back down more, but the heat slows us down greatly. 
  • I have to remember to not make too many bulleted posts.  I feel like I'm in marketing.

Soda Pwns Your DNA- No!

Soda harms DNA

Pep_2  

According to a recent study, an ingredient in soda called sodium benzoate  causes much of the damage.   This ingredient prevents mold from growing on soda or from turning Pepsi into RC Cola. 

I love soda.  All right, many of the 30 pounds pay tribute to the many gallons of the sweet syrup I've sucked down.  This is harder for me to swallow than a Super Big Gulp.  I'm....really sorry for that last sentence.

Other health issues this ingredient seems to play a part in:

  • parkinson disease
  • cancer
  • lack of blog updates
  • suspension of rational judgement like, "Hey, I'm going to write a 20,000 word screen play in June."
  • strong desire to change one's own website every three months
  • hyperactivity
  • disappearance from friends and loved ones
  • neuro-degenerative diseases like World of Warcraft

Oh, well, back to iced tea.
