The Multi-Vitamin Surprise

Toady started off well. It's a Wednesday so my day started at 5:45 am. I'm on a new health kick, so my breakfast was well rounded and complemented with 2 Echinacea and a multi-vitamin. The Echinacea was for my morning phlegm that has made an appearance 3 mornings in a row. To school I went. I'm also going green as apart of my "better myself & the earth in 2009" plan. Riding the public transit system is an adventure in itself. It's a mixed bag of drivers; this morning I was treated to the police officer from the Village People....complete with porn-stache. His goal on our morning drive was to clean and jerk the bus the 15 miles to school. We arrived safely to my amazement. After a productive 2 hours in the photo lab I was once again subject to an enthralling art history lecture. Today we deconstructed Mycenaean art and architecture all the way down to the Tholos Tomb. I was engrossed.



On my way to catch the bus I got the multi-vitamin surprise. Before boarding the bus I took a pit stop at the ladies. After a healthy and lengthy pee, due in part to the massive amount of water I consumed, I got a whiff of what can only be described as a distinctly cereal smell. The smell quickly disappeared with a flush. Hands washed and curiosity peeked I boarded the bus.



Hours have passed since my pit stop. I watched a couple of inspiring episodes of TOP CHEF, which made me rethink my course of study and wish smell-a-vision was a real technology, instead of an abstract idea. After changing the channel to OVATION TV and watching a documentary on the life and art of Claude Monet, I soon realized that my art history courses are more appealing than my culinary curiosities. Three more cereal scented trips to the bathroom have also occured.



To GOOGLE I went, to solve the mystery. I think most of life's dilemmas can be solved with a quick trip to GOOGLE. Has anyone proposed this to the President to solve the economic crisis? Perhaps this could really turn things around, but I digress. A swift search of 'my urine smells like cereal' I linked to site that seems credible; it explained that taking a daily multi-vitamin can cause your urine to smell like cereal. Medical mystery solved. Thanks GOOGLE!!!
