Manic Wednesday

Exhausted from staying up late last night, I fell into a deep and catatonic sleep. Be it exhaustion or the Valium I took prior to falling asleep (which I took to ensure a restful night of sleep due to recent bouts of insomnia I’ve been experiencing) I overslept this morning. As I was rushing around like a mad woman, I quickly tossed in my lunch for work into my canvas bag and promptly jetted out the door. Naturally traffic was a nightmare as people in Kentucky drive as if there’s a blizzard coming down when in actuality it’s a few mere snowflakes. Desperate for caffeine I popped open a Diet Dr. Pepper as is my habit each morning on my commute to work (alas, I despise the smell and taste of coffee). Unfortunately in my attempt to inject caffeine into my body immediately I mistakenly opened up my low sodium V-8 veggie juice. Personally I find the veggie juice somewhat repulsive but in my desire to consume at least 2-4 veggies a day I can force myself to choke the vile liquid down as eating raw vegetables is completely out of the question. With that said, I would never opt for a V-8 first thing in the morning and was forced to spit it out as there is a huge difference between expecting to consume a diet Dr. Pepper at 7 AM versus a healthy (non caffeinated) beverage.
