And lose your mind. My family experienced this strangeness and most others I've talked to have as well. The Katrina Diet consisted of eating almost nothing for a week starting August 29, 2005. and then eating little for the next year while trying to find friends, relatives, co-workers and yourself. This is not a diet that most chose to go on and some may have even gained weight on it with comforting expansion of meals. For me though, this diet included a thining of the wallet as I drove around the country gather my stuff and moving from air mattress to air mattress to relative's house and onward. I saw a weight loss of ten pounds and half of my frontal lobe... and a third of my stuff, all of my furniture, one car, contact with a best friend for two weeks, contact from my parents for almost as long, and the house I grew up in. I just wonder if I'm supposed to look at this as a lost year too?

What's going on here? Why am I posting so much? Today, in honor of Katrina I am attempting a 24 hour 24 post blogathon.
