I am swamped and freaked out with all the orders I have to fill... I always doubt how fast I can really fold and assemble and cut, but I know I can pull it out in the end. And really, it's rewarding when you get customers who are probably the best people on the continent (versus, say, if I sold grenades or something), you want to do it well for them.
Normally, I'd be cool with sleeping less and stuff. But I have to work at a trade show for 4 days next week and have to be on a normal sleep schedule in order to wake up for it. Also, I've been juicing everyday and have never felt healthier. Plus, I have a recital on Sunday. I have to HAVE TO do well.
I went to my voice lesson today and my teacher was just about gonna kiss my feet for singing the absolute best I've ever sung, especially after an abysmal rehearsal two weeks ago. It's been so much crazy singer shit I've been doing, like mad visualization, mental rehearsal crap, focusing, singing in front of a mirror, fixing my tongue, fixing my posture, reading books, warming up at home, diva-ing it up in the car, eating breathing this, but I swear the juicing is what did it. (But I hate to say it out loud b/c then it's not gonna work anymore.)
Which is why I'm feeling very guilty right now drinking coffee and eating a pumpkin muffin from Panera. I haven't had coffee in over a week, k? But I realize I shouldn't be drinking it now that I'm trying to sleep earlier and earlier (last night I slept at 2:15). Anyhoo, sorta decided on what's gonna be in my juice: carrot, celery, cucumber, kale, Romaine lettuce, and pear. It tastes awesome as long as you don't put too much kale in.

"...versus, say, if I sold grenades or something"--hahahahaha.
Yes! Cont. w/ the juice!
btw it's really bad not to have anything except coffee before dinner!... I used to be a bit like that except I didn't drink coffee but sugary things instead (e.g. Snapple). Still bad. But it's ALWAYS good to cut out milk, it does nothing but bad to your system.
Juice is always safest when you make it yourself! (so you know nothing has been snuck in.)
hehe i always like how you give your heart in folding, it makes the whole thing sweet - from the thot of getting the item to u make it n them receiving! yeah i was thinking abt ur tradeshow these couple of mornings, need wake up calls?
OH GOOOD LUCK WITH UR PERFORMANCE!! I so wana go see u sing r! haha maybe i will keep watching ur utube vids when u r doing the show!
AND hahaha Great juicing - you should call it KOjuice... for KO-ing everything u do now! hee good luck tt
btw, (it's prob a bit late now... u only have a few more days?) have you ever tried melatonin? Even I use it sometimes.
Oh also, another thing you could really try (when you've had a bit of time to think abt it) is probiotics! Kris Carr talks about them. They improve your gut environment (would that affect ur oesophagus, etc.?) so I dunno if that'd improve your singing!
how did your recital go? and did you decide whether to go home for Christmas?
