July 24

Post 898, Day 205 of 2013
- and 936 days since I started this blog -

Daily Comment

I guess the break in the weather - it is cool today! - has reduced my brain activity to a minimum.

I am struggling to find a topic to address. I try to write something that is at least a little interesting every day here, but, as is my wont (that is not a misspelling), I am loose with it.

I have always found regulation stifling and uncomfortable, at least in its absolute (you will do this at this time for this long in this way) form. When I was a young kid, I would try to comply, and always, without exception, end up in tears of frustration.

I would never survive any kind of military training.

Slowly but surely... Then again, at the end of the day, literally at 9:30 pm when I ate dinner, this turned into a cheat day. 

Food Log 
Breakfast
Skipped.

Lunch
Italian-style chicken sausage (with onions and peppers) and scrambled eggs. Not shown: Salad of Spring Mix greens, red cabbage, black beans and balsamic vinaigrette.

Snack
Snack 1: Soft-serve ice cream. Snack 2: A protein bar (later).

Dinner
At Eskapes Lounge: A big glass of good Pinot Noir. Lentil soup (with a little piece of garlic toast, eaten). Wasabi-blackened grilled tuna steak, rare, with sauteed vegetables (spinach, tomatoes, peppers, onions, mushrooms). And dessert: Cheesecake truffles in chocolate sauce. It was just there, so I ate it (dinner and drinks is how we're paid when we play here). This marks today as a cheat day.


Snack
A bag of chia chips - which contained organic brown rice, and were very salty and spicy.

Liquid Intake   
   Coffee:  22 oz.   Water: 128+ oz.

  1. i share this intolerance of regulation with you. Maybe its genetic or maybe its a common reaction to the irrational, abusive familial and societal environment we both shared and grew up in. It's interesting that an inability to deal with authority figures, regulation, and regimentation were cited as the reason I should be given a psychological 4F rating by the draft board.i think i was very lucky that my number never came up. i am sure that if that letter was the only thing between me and the front lines, i would be a Canadian today. This rejection of imposed behavior has probably contributed to the failure i've experienced in my endeavors to make my way through institutional academic and corporate careers.
