Skip this, it's boring

I know why I've been feeling so unmotivated and useless lately, which translates into me not getting anything (writing, cleaning, knitting, sewing... okay, I've been reading a lot, but that's reading) done lately. It's the stupid cookies I made! They are really good. So good that I've been eating like a dozen a day (yeah, there are a lot of cookies). They're small but that's still a lot of sugar. I doubt I could ever cut sugar out of my life but I know that too much sugar gives me a rush and then I crash. Caffeine does the same thing, but I can easily deny myself that because it also makes me feel really ill. Sugar only makes me feel ill if I eat way too much. Tellingly, I feel like that now (though there's also caffeine in chocolate, which probably contributes) so I'm going to try to limit my cookie consumption. And tempted as I am, I'm not going to make more to bring with me to school. I need to not feel like this when I'm at school.

The fact that I haven't been drinking enough doesn't help, either. I need to drink a lot of water, but I get really bored of the taste of plain water. I drink water with lemon juice (1 liter of water with 1/4 cup lemon juice, as prescribed for my kidneys, in my Nalgene). But I haven't drinking that because of the, y'know, open wounds in my mouth. I think I should be okay now, though. So I realy ought to start refilling my Nalgene and drink.
