Daily Comment

After an early breakfast, I went to sleep, caught up on some 'paperwork' - on the computer - and headed out to my open mic sessions.

It's always fun, and always rewarding. Whether I get to play with strangers, friends, or sought-after playing time with musicians I seek out; whether the players are inexperienced or veterans;good or bad players, there is always something gained. I may bitch (I do bitch) when a lack of experience, skills, talent, or worst of all, a bad attitude spoils the ensemble work - but I can't deny, every time I get an opportunity to play music with other people, I'm better for it.

Diet Comment

I'm counting the after-gig breakfast I had as today's breakfast, even though I went to sleep about a half-hour later, and didn't get up until late afternoon. Did I ever mention that I had never eaten at one of these terrible restaurants until I moved to Syracuse? Denny's - any Denny's - is the 'Chinatown' of Syracuse musicians (back in the day, around three or four in the morning, Hong Fat's on Mott St was full of musicians and Chinese laborers and partiers - it was the go-to after-gig destination). In Syracuse, Denny's is pretty much the only game in town after a gig that ends at two in the morning. I have narrowed down the least-bad offerings to one of three omelets.

After that, there was sleep and I didn't wake up hungry, so easily instituted a twenty-one hour fast. Also, because of the eat-breakfast-then-go-to-bed way this day began, I just carried over yesterday's weight - there was no actual weighing done.

Food Log 

Breakfast

At Denny's: An Ultimate Omelet, whose ingredients include bacon and sausage and onions and peppers and mushrooms and, in this case, swiss cheese. With a side of hash browns and dry rye toast. Not having eaten since lunch, I was still hungry, and had some kind of burger, and I can't remember what, but it had cheese and bacon and barbecue sauce, I think. I didn't eat any fries or anything with it. Then I got home, unloaded my gear and passed out...
