Daily Comment

I will probably remember today as the first day I tried pangasius.

Which is a Vietnamese fish. It has a taste like halibut, but a form and texture more like Orange Roughy. 

Just thought I'd mention that, because, well, that's all I got at the moment. Oh, wait, one more thing: A new Thai retirement location, Pei. Thailand has such strong appeal, even though, for reasons of ease, it has fallen to second-place on my list after Ecuador, which now looks like the easiest place, with the most benefits, to retire to. 

All speculation, until the boots-on-the-ground tour that starts my retirement, in less than 2-1/2 years.

Diet Comment

I was not expecting that. Yes, I had a late-night snack, and yes, it was off-plan. But wow1 That's a lot of sudden weight gain. The original plan was to eat all my meals out today, but my lunch partner Al was sick, so I ate at work.
