08:30 AM: I’m up.    

10:40 AM: iPodded to Ke$ha’s   Your Love is my Drug   repeater song.  I chuckle when recalling [Emmy's] disdain for this hit — maybe that’s why I like it so much, I don’t know.  :-)

02:15 PM: Puttered around in the front room downstairs (downstairs office), filing papers and discarding manuals and receipts for appliances which I no longer possess.  I found perhaps ten pounds of rubbish doing this.  I suppose I’ll have to go through my files at least once every five years instead of what I currently do, which is once every ten.  :-)  

02:30 PM: Cheerios with sliced bananas and almond “milk.” Positively orgasmic flavor! But don’t store your Cheerios in basements for long; lest you get cereal that tastes like your cellar smells. Seriously. Yuck!

03:25 PM: I have a new all-time favorite song for the week. It’s Ke$ha’s hit  Your Love Is My Drug. Hey, this way beats out Beethoven’s   Fifth Symphony, Frampton’s   Do You Feel Like We Do, Led Zeppelin’s   Stairway to Heaven, and Charley Pride’s   Kiss An Angel Good Morning. It even surpasses Hampton the Hampster’s   Hampsterdance Song; though I had to ponder that last one for a bit to know for sure.   :-)

05:40 PM: Filed papers (receipts, manuals, information pamphlets, and so on) in the downstairs office all afternoon.  Still not done yet, but there’s only one pile of stuff left, and I’m hoping to finish that either tonight or tomorrow. 

07:00 PM: I had a couple of olive oil sandwiches for supper. Take two slices of whole grain flatbread and smear about a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil all over the insides. Then, sprinkle on some fresh oregano or basil and a bit of garlic salt, and there you are. Tastes just like the dipped bread served in the finest Italian restaurants. Mmmmm mmmmm!   But it’s not very filling however. ;-)

10:00 PM: Talked with [Emmy] on the phone.  Nothing new to report.  We just help each other keep from getting too lonely.  It’s nice. 

11:00 PM: Watched the 2010-08-26 and 2010-08-27 episodes of   NBC’s Nightly News   news show on the DVR. 

11:50 PM: Watched tonight’s episode (the season premier) of CBS’s   60 Minutes    news show on the DVR.  They covered the mosque near ground zero.  An interesting tid bit: Muslims have already been worshipping at this site for over a year, and the developer has gotten near-unanimous approval from community leaders four times now.  It seems that republicans are campaigning against this mosque the loudest. 

01:00 AM: Watched   Larry King Live   on CNN.  Tonight, King, interviewed President Jimmy Carter for the last time. 

01:15 AM: Signing off for tonight.  Have a good one and I’ll be back here again later on.  Take care.

Today’s Diet: 2010-09-26

Sunday, September 26th, 2010

I keep this food diary to stay aware of just how many calories I’m eating daily, with the hope that it decreases the likelihood that I’ll overeat.    It seems to work, so here we go with another day…

Today, I consumed the following items:

  • Herbal tea and diet pop throughout the day. 0 calories.
  • 02:00 PM: 1 bowl of Cheerios with almond drink and bananas.  600 calories.
  • 03:30 PM: 1 avocado.  300 calories.
  • 06:00 PM: 2 olive oil sandwiches.  400 calories.
  • 08:00 PM: 2 bowls of Cheerios with almond drink and organic sugar.  1000 calories.
  • 01:00 AM: 3 slices of provolone cheese.  300 calories.

Total calories: 2600.
