(FYI: The Licorice I am referring to is the real licorice root. It is NOT the candy licorice. Licorice candy usually has no licorice, only anise.)

It seems like longer, but I’ve been caffeine free for 8 days now. I’ve been having good days and then days with headaches.

It was distracting while I was at work but my co-workers were more than understanding and saw me through. I must admit that I had… Read More »

Well, it’s May 23, 2011. The world didn’t end Saturday like Family Radio said it would [Family Radio judgement pdf]. Why would they predict something like that when there is no win for them?
