Oye Oh Lee 2 Pay

I did it. I've climbed to the top of Everest and seen the wonders from 30,000 ft. I am now 1 for 1. Batting 1.000. It's so exciting...I woke up at 8am. What a struggle! My eyes wanted to close, my body ached to return to the warmth of the covers, my mind blurred and bent and for 30 minutes I could not focus on a train of thought. So that was goal one on day one. Yay! Or yahoozle! (As one of my good friends might say.)

Now on to goal two. I will wake up at 8am again. Then I will attempt to drink 64 ounces of water throughout the day. That's it. Just those two things. Can I do it? We'll see.

I was excited to see I still had 2 readers after such a long absence. Paige and Christina...thanks. That's right, you get the bold italics.

So I was thinking today that 1.4% was a lot. It's a whole lot, and not a fraction less! For some reason today I started thinking how fast a year seems to go by now. I heard a day or 5 ago that the average lifespan for an American is 71 years. That means every year that goes by is equal to about 1.4% of a person's life here on earth. Isn't that crazy? The reason I find that so crazy is because if I were to make my own milk for consumption I would probably be a 1.4 percenter. I like 2%, but it usually feels heavy in my stomach. 1% and skim are delicious, but are usually so light that I can drink 2 glasses or more before I feel satisfied. So probably 1.4% is just about what I need to be able to drink one glass and feel finished. So that tells me that I will likely live to age 71. So that means I have roughly 41 more years to live. Don' t you think it's more than a coincidence that 41 is 1.4 backwards without a period? I think I've proven my point.
