Stranger than fiction...

Now I've taken some physics classes in my life - notably Mr. Thompson's at Ontario High School which I felt was rather comprehensive at the time - only to be usurped for my Physic 113/114 at Idaho wherein Dr. Brown covered all of Mr. Thompson's entire year of learning in the first two weeks. Thank god Dr. Brown graded on a curve or my "stellar" performance would have generated an encore performance of the undesirable type.

In physics, I learned that mass and weight are two different things - that my weight is tied to the gravitational pull of the earth. So where if I were to stand on the Moon's surface, I would weight about 1/3rd as much (I would like to propose the Lunar Pounds-Off Diet where you can instantly loose 2/3rds your weight in a four day trip...). But my mass isn't tied to gravitational pull - it is what comprises my body.

This morning I weighed in again to see if my 246 post Superbowl blow out extravaganza was a reality or some sort of fluke. Or that maybe the earth's gravitational pull has shifted somewhat in my favor, but I weighed in at 241 again. So I had a 5 lbs drop in 24 hours.

I want to know, where does it go? I didn't feel bloated nor do I feel I got rid of it via sweating or other bodily fluids. I had a normal day where I watched what I ate and drank some water. Where does 5 lbs. go?

Anywho - life imitates art and sometimes that art is abstract. Or maybe I just need to brush up on my Physics 101 again.
