Admittedly, Mistakes Were Made
I’m sick. Yesterday morning I woke up with a sore throat, and by 9:00 I had that nasty, run-down, achy feeling all over my body. It’s a super busy week here getting ready for Life Plus University though, so I didn’t want to go home early. By the time 5:00 rolled around, all I wanted to do was lay on the couch and zone out. When I finally got home I prepared for an evening of doing nothing by turning on the Xbox and grabbing a six-pack of Vernors, a bottle of grape juice, two breakfast bars and bag of grapes. By the end of the night I had drank half the Vernors and all of the grape juice, plus several glasses of water. While I’ve always subscribed to the philosophy that flushing the body with liquids is great when you are sick, I now know to vary those liquids a little bit more. It seems that much grape juice in a short span of time has quite the negative effect on the digestive tract. About three quarters of the way through the bottle, I began to notice the effects. But not wanting to get off the couch or drink any more pop, I continued on. Though not nearly as horrifying a result as would have been obtained from drinking a gallon of apple cider, I definitely don’t plan to reenact last night’s grape juice debacle any time soon.

Bananas are the antidote to grapejuice:-)
