Wonder what happened to
@Alien? I was enjoying his inquisitiveness. Maybe went back to the home planet.
Hello, everyone. I have taken a bit of a break from kava and it's been due to a couple of reasons. For one, I was consuming way too much to 'break through' and found myself a little too krunked and with mild hangover effects some ~12 days ago or so (probably when I last posted). More importantly than that, however, I have started a new job. You see, I had been laid off with pay for 8-weeks and encouraged to find other opportunities within the company or, at the end of said 8 weeks, accept a severance package of around $20,000. I took another job within the company and keep my salary of approximately $55k/year. This job started a couple of days after my last post here.
The new job I have is incredibly stressful and as such you'd think I would be consuming kava again. Well... The smell and thought of the smell and/or taste has been enough to make me feel disgusted. I never started to gag with kava but the smell and taste have always bothered me. I can consume it with little to no tasting by holding my nose and chasing it but the process of making up a batch pretty much requires you to take in the fumes quite a bit. I don't think I'd ever literally get sick but the whole process and thought of the smell and taste has put me off for a bit.
Today I did go ahead and take 4g of PK's extract. I had some mildly relaxing feelings that led me into dozing off a couple of times on my couch while watching TV after giving my dog a bath. Today I am off work, of course. I sure hope bags of kava powder last for a very long time because I don't think I'll be consuming all of my stock for a very, very long time. I could always make ice cubes but I'd rather not have to.
Anyway-- I'm alive. And today is Alien Abduction Day!
