My thoughts about truth involve a broader definition. I was thinking how often I saw something to elicit a certain response from someone-- approval, to get them to do something for me, etc. In a sense, the things I say to get something are not really true. I'll have to elaborate on this more later.
--------------------------------------

Fruit season is in full swing! I've been picking white and red mulberries, juneberries, and black and red raspberries are beginning to come into season here. I also went cherry picking at the orchards--just this weekend we (in the horticulture department) were allowed to pick for free. Most of them were molded, sadly, but I had never gone cherry picking before and I loved it.

I'm not sure how much sleep I get. During the school year, I often get only 7.5 hours--I can't feel good with less than eight. If I have a bad or busy night when I am very stressed, I might get only 5 hours and it never gets made up. The debt just keeps accumulating.

I'm reading a book about the effects of artificial lights and sleep deprivation. It's very interesting, though parts are poorly written. It gets into assumptions about what we evolved to do, and a Paleo diet--lots of poor assumptions about what we evolved to do IMO. More assumptions than science.
