Day Four of consistently updating my Livejournal, and my continued experiment in productivity, and focus.
I seem to have developed at least a routine. Wake up. Take meds, Update journal. Attempt to write. Remember to shower, and eat something.
Well the writing gets done. It's the finishing that doesn't happen yet. Lately it's just essays and brain doodles.
My wife is sick with a sinus this week. It's not great timing. While she's napping I decided to go to QT for a diet Coke and ended up at Starbucks for a change of scenery, Black coffee seems to intensify the effect of the medication in a very predictable and pleasant way. The fact that Starbucks in KC don't carry fruit is irksome,
In addition to the new meds, I'm now exactly on the diabetic side of the diabetic/not-diabetic line. It actually sounds worse than it is. Literally, I was within one point of being "not quite diabetic." The end result is that I'm eating a lot better. My appetite is also greatly reduced, and the doctor assures me that losing weight will go along way in resolving the issue. Curiously, I just discovered that QT Buffalo chicken logs are now disgusting. I mean I'm pretty sure they were disgusting before, but now I'm actually conscious of this fact.
I think I shall find a salad.
