Off the Juice: Week 1

By Maude Perkins
When District Manager Nimrod scoots on over from Pizza Hut without ever drinking a cup of coffee and barks orders at the people who have espresso endlessly caked under their fingernails, the system tends to break down.

Barista! Glazed and Confused

By Maude Perkins
One of these days (probably in February when I'm over the resolution thing), I'm going to emphasize to him that he can buy those cool French press things, and decaf espresso, and do it his goddamn self.

No Hugs On The CTA

By Scott Buckner
Bring pleasant "back" to the commute? I was raised in Chicago, and I've had countless encounters with the CTA. Commutes have never been a pleasant undertaking.

On the Juice: Day 14

By Natasha Julius
Hunger was not much of a factor today; I was more preoccupied with the dizziness.

On the Juice: Day 13

By Natasha Julius
I abandoning my grocery shopping plans when it suddenly occurred to me that I no longer have any idea how to plan a meal.

On the Juice: Day 12

By Natasha Julius
A motor like a top-fuel racer and a glory hole the size of Texas. Yup, today my new juicer arrived.

On the Juice: Day 10

By Natasha Julius
Neither from Brussels nor (really) sprouts. Discuss. But don't juice.

On the Juice: Day 9

By Natasha Julius
For the first time during this fast, I got behind the wheel of a car. I can comfortably say I wasn't the most high-risk driver out there.

On the Juice: Day 7

By Natasha Julius

On the Juice: Day 6

By Natasha Julius
Dinner parties are all about trust and intimacy. To consume food, to put it in your mouth and to swallow it is a fundamentally intimate act. If you've sworn off that particular act, you've fallen outside the social unit - and you can't get back in.

On The Juice: Day 4

By Natasha Julius
My one big cheat, the one thing not technically sanctioned by the faster's code of ethics, is toothpaste. I'm not saying I've deep-throated a tube of it or anything, but if the gates of fasting heaven are closed to those who brush, I'll roasting in hell with my plaque-free smile.

On The Juice: Day 3

By Natasha Julius
I keep thinking someone's going to ask me a question and I'll just stare blankly at them and get a nose bleed, but so far I've actually managed to respond to every inquiry in fairly clean and concise fashion.

Barista! Bucket Brigade

By Maude Perkins
Who knew where that missing glove had been? I mean, besides floating around the cocoa urn.

You might think exploding grapes have infinite entertainment value. You'd be wrong.
