I’ve got a head cold, which is no big deal, but it is rather annoying. I would like to get rid of it before school starts, and have been sucking down vitamins and a disgusting mixture I have grown to like that consists of raw apple cider vinegar + raw honey + cayenne pepper + water, which is supposed to be good for the throat and good for you as far as “good bacteria” is concerned. This leads me to one of my new New Year’s Resolutions: to stop taking vitamins. 

Traditionally, my New Year’s Resolutions have been basically the same every year: to finish Wings of a Dove, to stop biting my nails, and to remember to take my vitamins. For the first time I am reconsidering the latter. I eat well, and I never remember to take them anyway, so why bother? Obviously I plan to take some (as I always do) for stress or PMS, or a sleep-aid, but as far as every day? That’s going out the window. So, goodbye, Women’s One-a-day, goodbye, Folic Acid, goodbye, iron. Our relationship has been tenuous at best anyway. I’m glad to see you go.
