Fasted again for the first time in a while. Not sure why I ever gave it up, except that it's <slightly> difficult.
Woke up last night when Ryan came into the room coughing, poor guy. We got him some medicine, and he stayed with us. Usually I feel a bit of annoyance when woken up, but at about hour 32 of fasting I felt totally zen about it.
I ultimately went to the couch so I could hear Elinor (we had a fan running to cover up the coughing in our room), and let my thoughts wander for a while. Then more restful sleep than I've had in a long time.
Just more proof that most of the food we have available is poison. As part of this 6 week trek (and maybe more), I plan to test out different foods at the end of each intermittent fasting day to see what effects they have on my mood.
It's pretty clear that peanuts screw up my mood pretty bad. Today I'll test almonds to see if they have the same effect.
That's about it for now.

bored bored bored bored bored!
What a contrast between this cubicle hole and the hike yesterday. I keep asking myself what I'm doing here. I don't like dropping my kids off to have them spend their time with strangers, while I go sit in a cube for no purpose.
"What am I doing here?" I keep asking the wall. It has no answer. Neither do I. Stacking paper? Is that it? There's nothing here that interests me. Even the gym has become too routine. The last three times I've been, I've just left after about 10 minutes.
Government work leads to a bored, bland, banal being (B4?)
I walked every cubicle hall I could access in my building. 1.49 miles according to the accelerometer in my watch.
It's nice outside. My boss is leaving in 4 minutes. I think I will too.

A good day.....
trails, adventure, sandy creek shores with no evidence of human contact, and even a run-in with quicksand!
Much preferable to go off the trail....the poor runner I saw, he was doomed to following the trail. Trade those running shoes in for some hiking boots and discover your inner explorer.
Only the first picture below was take from the trail. The others are all from meandering through the woods and finding my way home. I even got lost and had to figure out which way to go by determining which way the water was flowing in the creek. Turns out I didn't need to walk across the tree. But since I was in shorts, I could wade across the 2' deep creek to get back to the right side.

At some point you have to wonder.....
The talking heads on mass media are the bottom of the barrel, to be sure.
This story is great because it shows not only how stupid your news anchors are, but how stupid you can be and go to Harvard / Princeton. Best and brightest my ass. Rich doofus pricks more like it.
There is no hope in this world. Giant Meteor 2019!
