Spring Cleaning

I'm a pretty liberal guy, but I gotta say I'm not into those fad diet things like the atkins, or stuff like that, but I did try the "Wild Rose" cleanse last week. It's supposed to be 12 days, but I got the idea quickly. You can check out the details online so I won't bore you with the stuff you can't eat. For me it was a real appreciation for what you can. I didn't lose any weight or have any visions or anything, but I did get a good feel for my body. You basically eat brown rice and vegetables until you get tired of eating that, and then just not eat. It's not really that severe, you can eat all the meat you want?? Anyhoo, I liked it. Rice and beans for breakfast with an egg... hello... Mexico... Fish each night was, well, what I'm used to so that wasn't that big. I think it'll be easy sticking to this one. Was a bit confusing not having a glass of wine with the meals, but no fermented goods really learned me about how tea was made. Must say I did enjoy the learning experience and after a week I had a piece of pizza and a glass of vino, but haven't had a coffee or a smoke in weeks now and I must say I like that change. Oh yeah, and I did lose the beard. Got tired of talking about it to tell you the truth. 'That's not a white man's beard'... I think was my favorite comment. Daffodils are coming up as are the pussy willows, so it looks like spring is springing early this year. I welcome it and hope that the sun brings a few waves too.
