I -heart- fur, but not on my tongue

Hi folks --
Just checking in. This is now the 63rd hour on my water fast, and while such a feat might look easy, it definitely is not.
The outpouring of worry from friends, family and colleagues almost knocked me off the water wagon last night, but I hung in there -- as I will continue to do this weekend.
(Contrary to popular notions, human beings don't drop dead after a week without any food; they can live for almost three months on nothing but water and sunshine. Kind of like plants.)
So, anyway, I am going to see this thing out. I'd love to make it a week (which means that I could switch to juice at 8 p.m. for my following 2 to 3 week juice fast). And think of the bragging rights! "Oh, so you think you're hungry? I haven't eaten for a week! And I haven't chewed for a month! Stick that in your craw, buddy!"
However, I'm getting tired of not being able to hit the gym nearly as hard as I want to; I kinda am trudging now as opposed to sprinting, lifting and kickboxing. But that's okay. I am also irritable, but you probably wouldn't know it unless we were really close. I kind of muffle that stuff because I don't like feeling that way.
But if you see me kicking a chihuahua, you know why.
Anyway, one last thought: If you try this water fast, expect a furry tongue. No matter how much water you drink, your tongue stays coated in underbrush for some reason. I take toothpaste to my mouth several times a day so that doesn't happen, but it's still kinda gross.)
That's all for now!
