Vitamin B6!!!
when attached to a phosphate group, it becomes pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) which is the prosthetic group of the enzyme aminotransferase that converts your alpha-ketoglutarate into glutamate thusly allowing it to dispose of toxic ammonia as urea in the body
basically, eat lots of vitamin B6 (spinach, bell peppers!) so that you can properly metabolize amino acids and other fun stuff

this weekend in review

1) went to Michigan to see this guy 2) decided drunkenly after going out to a gay club with friends that i would come out to said guy that i am queer via text message, mis-spelled.

3) guy doesnt check his phone til the morning after. guy is confused. wants explanation/discussion. at which point i am still battling a stomach bug, and we are on a boat with friends going out to a lake. i vomit 4 times. 4) no discussion ever happens.

5) tattoos happen though, and sex, and the purchase of some amazing coffee from Comet, and walks through the arboreum, and the first serious discussion we have ever had- not about us, but about figure skating, which is almost a conversation about us seeing as its how we met and our most common linkage. 

wahhhhhhhhhhhhh
