Sort of. I'm going to take it easy with the food coz I don't feel hungry, despite not having eaten (and retained) anything but a bowl of chicken both over the last two days. I take this as a sign to go slow.

About to enjoy another bowl o broth. Mmmm

Most of last night actually saw me concentrating more on staving off a terrible caffeine-withdrawl headache, from going a whole day without coffee. I can't imagine the last time that happened. Was snacking on Excederins, and even chewed on the Jolt gum that [livejournal.com profile] meerkitty happened to give me a while ago. Ironically, when I had enough to achieve equilibrium, I dropped into 8 hours of solid sleep.

a whole day wo coffee???

I am lucky that I don't get caffeine withdrawl headaches -- because I do occasionally manage (like on this trip I am on!) to go a few days without any -- all that happens is that I get slower.

Excederine has caffeine in it for this reason, of course.. to help with headaches.
jolt gum? urgh. how about some penguin mints instead? or just go straight for the no-doze tablets?
