woah, you've been getting shit done!

Second job in your field or a college stop-gap?

I've always wanted to do a fast, but I get seriously bitter and snappy about everything after 6 hours without food and I can't conscienably do that to my friends. Happy (and hopefully peaceful) Ramadan, btw

It's kinda in my field, foot in the door, so to speak.

I would say with fasting the intent is half of what makes it easy. If I go to work and forget my lunch, I'm going to be cranky and pissed for the rest of the day. But if I wake up in the morning and have the intent to fast for the rest of the day, it's significantly less stressful.

that makes sense, I'm gonna give it a try once I get home. I've not been eating nearly as much as I used to which (which was A LOT, 2-3 mission burritos a day a lot) but I think I've been priming myself for something a bit more rigorous.

Did you do any caloric intake at all, or just water/assorted teas?

And the foot in the door is way to go, congrats! Connections go a long way, and something tells me you've got some rad ideas that would merit the support they can provide.
