my digestive system

I've been pretty good with the food and water situation so far. Today is Saturday and I think I finally had my first effects.

Last night I went out with a bunch of Juniper folks to dinner... they were drinking and smoking and celebrating being converted from contractor to perm status. I was switching off between water, 7-up, and what they called "fruit punch" which I believe was a creamy drink, not as thick as a lassi, but a sort of a fruit blend.

After I received the drink and took a sip, I wondered if they get the milk for this drink in the fashion that I saw people on the sidewalk milking the cows..... I tried to block that out for the rest of the night.

anyway... between last night, and lunch during the day friday, I think I had the most heat that I've had on the trip so far... and I think I paid the price for that today a little bit. I was up early in the morning on the can for a little bit, and then just before the movie started, I think I cleared out more of my colon. I'm feeling pretty good now, but I think I'll see if I can have some rather bland food for the day, along with getting a little more fiber. Diet so far tends to be heavy on chicken, light on the fiber. I have some cliff bars, hopefully that will help.
