this is it.
Fasting makes you dumb. Well, maybe it doesn't make you dumb, but it makes me dumb.

....depends which one side you are looking at... now days with those Master Cleanse ...everybody seem so in "fashion" doing it...wonder, is the master cleanse dumb?.... "Who Knows?"
Funny you should post this..Ironically, I was fasting for 3 days (a self-imposed 'special assignment' to pray to the Lord)..I did not feel dumb but I think it's because I am fasting for a vastly different reason..but I do feel a little numb, though..lol
Just so that you would know (which I think you already do..coming from me..yet again..lol), 'Dumb' is the farthest word to describe you, dear Clem.
tell me about it .. haha imagine fasting for thirty days straight.. gladly I have to wait a few more months before I get to do that again.. ahh... religious reasons... ;)
ahah i can't believe it, a lot of people on myspace are fasting in this period..i am gonna start my master cleanse in 2 days, hope it doens't make me dumb cause i wouldn't stand to me more dumb than i already am!
Looks like you have made up your mind and are ready to take the blunge. To me fasting is anything that you feel has an unheathly hold on you that interferes with your well-being. I agree with you on feeling dumb. Realizing you unknowingly allowed something to have you under the gun is eyeopening. With this writing challenge you set for yourself it's evident your very self-disciplined and self-aware. Clementine are very strong in all aspects.
Much love, and wishing you the best in all things, and peace
I'm not sure where else I can do this so I'm doing it here. I was wondering if it would be alright to quote you on my new website. It's not quite up and running yet, but once it is I'll give you the link so you can check it out. I guess to respond you can either email me at zitrocity.e.ortiz@gmail.com or just comment one of my blog posts. Thanks!
I was thinking the same thing if the "fast" is literal or metphorical I really think it's possibly both. Reading everyone comments gives my another perspective on your work Clementine. Thanks to everyone that leaves a comment.
A: The Dirty Ballerina is a collection of words, drawings and meanderings that fell out of my head and onto a page. (In the real life paper version there will be things that fell out of other people's heads sometimes.)
Who is the dirty ballerina?
A: Me.
Why do you get to be THE dirty ballerina? What makes you so special?
A: Because I said so and because that's me in the tutu.
Do you even do ballet?
A: The last time I did ballet was when that picture was taken 22 years ago.
*I'm going to stop here before it gets ugly and say that everyone has a little dirty ballerina inside of them. The next time you pour coffee down the front of your fancy outfit or trip and fall in the mud stop for a minute and look at yourself. Are you laughing? There she is...
Thirty in Thirty
As an assignment to myself and to push myself to learn about deadlines I am writing a blog everyday for thirty days. The only requirement I have is that I cannot blog about blogging. Most of it may be crap but I'm doing it anyway, so there.
Just Remember
My grandma always says, never let the truth get in the way of a good story. I always say, the truth is better than anything you can make up. I also tend to listen to my grandma as she's pretty smart. So, if you pop up, or think you pop up in anything I write you might be right, but then again, you might be wrong. All memory is fiction essentially, right?

I wonder if the "fast" is metaphorical or literal..
