Oh very young, what will you leave us this time?

No, I still haven't finished Joshua. I keep getting incredibly tired whenever I sit down to read. Or my neck will hurt. Or I will get a text message. Or... You get the point.

So, I made french press and turned on some Cat Stevens to try and put some of this into perspective. Cat asked me, "And if you want this world to see better days, will you carry the words of love with you?" I thought, "Well, good question, Cat. I should probably keep reading those words of love - they ARE being written on my heart (for the Bible tells me so). Thanks for the perspective, my very-confused-yet-musically-talented-brother-of-the-human-race."

Yesterday, I followed the ways of my beautiful friend Emily and went "no-poo" (hippie internet term, not Emily's). This is AWESOME. This doesn't meant that I never wash my hair, what it means in my case is that I am now washing my hair with a paste of baking soda and water. Let me tell you something, the stuff works. My hair was thicker, fuller, clean and full of shine. Seriously, I am hooked. Now, I am a bit concerned that my hair will dry out, so I will either continue to use my regular conditioner or I will experiment with a diluted vinegar scented with essential oils. I am opting for the latter at this point because I would like to get away from the processed chemicals and such that make up so much of the products that we put on our bodies. Watch out, I am moving one step at a time but next thing you know I will be making my own soap and deodorant.

Okay, it's 1 PM: time to revisit Joshua.
