Say What a day???
So the resounding voice of the mono-tonistic hypothetical male says…”An apple a day keeps the doctor away” feeding the world his daily serving of platitude. I am angry with this reverberating myth that echoes across our culture. This semester I have eaten an apple daily, integrating it into part of my haphazard routine. Of all the great important personal things that I seem to overlook playing guitar, writing morning pages, and relearning how play a game consol(…and I don’t care which one )I never seem to miss the consumption of that damn red apple. What’s my reward for this unwavering dedication? The last three months I have had the flu, gout and an intestinal stomach bug that landed me a nice visit to the ER. No ladies and gentlemen not the lovely TV show where high paid actors play pretend doctor. The real ER where people act like they are low paid and don’t pretend to care (not until my girlfriend set the nurse strait at least.) The apple a day thing ain’t working so it’s time for some Taco Bell. Yo quiero Taco Bell. Maybe I’ll eat it once a day for three months and see if my health improves…then I can actually give people a useful platitude to live by.
