“Seven times I have despised my soul:
The first time; when I saw her being meek that she might attain height.
The second time; when I saw her limping before the crippled.
The third time; when she was given to choose between the hard and the easy, and she chose the easy.
The fourth time; when she committed a wrong, and comforted herself that others also commit wrong.
The fifth time; when she forbode for weakness, and attributed her patience to strength.
The sixth time; when she despised the ugliness of a face, and knew not that it was one of her own masks.
And the seventh time; when she sang a song of praise, and deemed it a virtue.”

Conscious chewing is way harder than it sounds, but can also be very rewarding.
Five Reasons to Chew Your Food...
Five Top Tips for Eating Mindfully
Five Reasons to Chew Your Food...
- Chewing stimulates the creation of enzymes in saliva that begin the digestive process, especially helping to break down carbohydrates.
- The act of chewing sends signals to the digestive tract that it's time to get to work
- Chewing your food stimulates the oesophogeal muscles, helping to prevent acid reflux
- Chewing breaks up every mouthful, making it easy to get the nutritional benefits
- Proper chewing stimulates pancreatic digestion, vital to the digestion of fats and proteins.
Five Top Tips for Eating Mindfully
- Sit down! Even if it's only for ten minutes, make proper time for your meal.
- Reclaim mealtimes. Eat properly at mealtimes and avoid snacking on the go.
- Turn it off! Switch off the TV, shut down the laptop, put your smartphone away and give eating your full attention.
- Turn your senses on. Enjoy the taste, smell, texture and look of each bite.
- Retrain your chewing!

Have no idea where to fucking put this... but I wanted to make sure all of my fellow Michiganders are safe out there today. This video is from a couple days ago but we have snow today, all day, and the conditions will be much worse. PLEASE be careful out there...... black ice is no joke and visibility is going to be bad all day.

Iv had a shitty arse day....
Last night I accidentally updated an app on my note 7 that was protecting me from Samsung's battery restrictions....
So Iv spent all day learning how to root my phone..... I'm a carpenter/mechanic kind of person, in depth computer shit is not what I do...
But learning is what I do... And I'm pretty good at it...
I have a problem where I can't really control my mind, so I have always used constant learning as distraction....
Anyway it took me most of the day, alot of frustration, and a headache later, and I've done it..... phone rooted, software update disabled, fuck you Samsung.....
It was problem after problem and I only just understood enough of it to get me through...
Had to first remove frp lock which took 2 hours alone...
But I'm so happy now to have my phone (which I love more than my kids....) all back and working better than ever, with no annoying notifications about battery safety, or risk of a forced update to limit my battery to 30%...
I deserve a big blob of gooey goodness in the evo nail......
I'm quite proud of myself...
Edit:- after thinking about it, the kids do probably just about get it.... But I really do love this phone....

Fire it again. I can still find the ground.
I need a walker a decent amount of the time. Just for stability mostly. Pain actually.
So where is my damn jetpack? Stupid futuristic mags when I was growing up...
Oh wait...

Names of bud strains thought:
any others that get turned off by goofy strain names? Feeling like if the herb was great quality, there's no need for such?
Most recent example was "LUCKY CHARMS" that I just vaped. LC was a bad kids cereal so why would I want a strain that's at all like Lucky Charms??
LC's parents are "The White" and "Appalachia" which are two fantastic strains so show some family pride and let that be known--give us "Honkey Mountains"-just kidding. But seriously, let it be known that you have great genetics.
Maybe White Appalachia, Blanc Appal, White Apple, or something to show the parents?
Another name I hate even more is Green Crack. Yes, let's reinforce the misconception that cannabis is like crack cocaine.....not.

Gave a friend nearly a half ounce of ABV. He went home & immediately commenced to making butter. How much did you use. "All of it. I didn't want the temptation to smoke it."
1. I recommended to him to be very careful when trying. Start small.
2. I cannot imaging rolling a joint with some water cured ABV that looks like coffee grounds.

And besides, if it gives you half the hallucinations that it did for the kids, you are going to have a really good time . . .

Ever notice how on TV and in the movies, every time someone douses a car, home, caravan with petrol... they always flick open a Zippo lighter and toss it in to get the fire started? Yesterday I saw a double arson attack (Scandinavian show - Modus) with two Zippos! I've checked prices and those motherfu*kers start at about $30!

Hmmm.
I wonder.
When the bobblehead overlord Zenu or whatever the fuck his name is comes...
Does he smoke up?
Otherwise somebody get me a freaking bunker-digger, er...um, I mean "fracking drill" like govvie-gov started doing...
I intend to lead a rebellion of controlled shitters to overwhelm their anal probe brigades...!
Sigh. Yeah. I really do wonder if we're fucked and nobody is saying anything.

To be fair, I'll go out on a limb and say a person who is torching a house on purpose is probably not going to care too much about the $30 loss on top of any other potential ramifications.Ever notice how on TV and in the movies, every time someone douses a car, home, caravan with petrol... they always flick open a Zippo lighter and toss it in to get the fire started?
