Bacon! Is there anything it can't do?

I rode home yesterday and was really beat when I got in. Bad enough that I was certain I would skip fencing practice. My mood was down, I felt tired. I didn't want to go. I was also hungry and pawed around my fridge for something to make for dinner. Pickins' were scarce, but I did find that I had an open package of bacon that I decided to finish off before it went bad. Five strips of bacon later I was energized and ready for fencing. I dressed up, readied my gear and was out the door in time for practice. I didn't last incredibly long, but I was surprised at how many bouts I was able to have and how well I did consdiering my fatigue level.

Its all thanks to... bacon!
