#2326: Tuesday, August 20: The thing I forgot is pretty funny


Post 2326
- 8 years and 232 days since I started this blog -
  
Daily Comment
When I was thinking about what to write about today, I discarded several ideas that were both too heavy and too personal for public consumption. I'll talk with anyone about anything, but I won't talk to everyone about everything.

And then, I had this thought - I'd left something out when I talked about the things I do every day in yesterday's post: This.

I didn't mention that every weekday when I'm not traveling, and pretty frequently when I am, I post a blog entry.

I put the result of the day's weigh-in in an Excel spreadsheet I keep just to track my daily weight, and create the weight chart that is in every non-traveling post. Then I put the update in the blog, current weight, yesterday's weight, the difference, and the chart. I copy the page and paste it into a new post which becomes the next day's, do a little editing, and save tomorrow's blog post.

Then it's back to the previous day's post, where I write the commentaries and add anything I've left out of the food journal, and publish it.

That's usually the last thing I do before getting out of bed.

Which I'm always grateful to be abe to do.

Diet Comment
That's a big jump in weight for a day. I'm obviously retaining water. It's most likely due to the large amount of bread and mayonnaise and salt that ended yesterday's eating.
