Another Manic Monday

Last night I watched this amazing documentary about corn production in the U.S. I highly recommend that everyone watch it. It is called King Corn.

It talked a lot about the governments involvement in mass food production and the push to make food cheap at the expense of its nutritional value. It addressed meat production and how beef is now corn fed which is extremely bad for the animals health and the environment. It talked about corn syrup and how awful it is. It talked about economics, and politics.

This morning when I got to work I signed up for a local organic delivery box. The box will be delivered to my work every other week. It will contain organic fruits a vegis from a local farm in the bay area. All the fruits and vegi's I buy are organic, but many of them are not local. This will make it easier for me to support more local products. :)

I want to be more conscious of what I put into my body. I am losing my voice, my throat is really, really sore. I drank so much beer this weekend that it gave me a yeast infection. I drank beer Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Not cool, need to drink less alcohol.
