Wonder Woman and Dr. Fate. Vancouver Island schools are still closed. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 38 Yesterday was the anniversary of my mother passing away. But is this relevant? It’s germane to my state of mind, which is terrible, and my state of diet, which is weak. I was walking to work from the chiropractor, who did a nice job shoving my SI joint back into place. I also have to place my shoulders…
I was looking for a Shazam/Wonder Woman image but this worked. Snow Day in Vancouver. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 37 I really should have poked myself in the eye. Good thing I didn’t say that thing about committing to restart the diet. I had a sugar meltdown in the afternoon. And, honestly, I feel like crap. I was please I pushed through two-thirds of a high intensity workout, but I felt like a horse…
Is it bad that I’m looking forward to the new Batwoman TV show? All school districts around the lower mainland are closed except Vancouver‘s. -4° and snow on the ground. Call the fuzz. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 36 I would like to put in an order for will power please. Level 10. And a side of fries. No, no, that’s not right. Just will power, with a side of grace and humility. OK, and…
Images with lots of Spider people make me feel better. Calgary -26° and “ice crystals”. Yikes. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 34 I declared yesterday a muffin day. I was so tired and messed up that I ate muffins and then went home to bed. Only to wake up to situational stress from the kid’s school. I didn’t even make it all the way through for a blog post. Yes, it’s going that well. Today…
Black Canary in honour of my wife’s birthday. Snow threatened for Victoria BC. The gardeners will be ticked off. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 32 It’s my wife’s birthday. I made cheesecake. It’s in the fridge. Honest. Seriously, I’m a mess. I am suffering from a languor (I had to look this one up) that’s leaving me so low-energy that it’s a slog getting through anything. I skipped the gym today because of fatigue and…
They’ve been foreshadowing Infinite Crisis for years on the TV. -6° in Twillingate. Not bad. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 31 In case you needed support for the assertion that it’s a bad idea to go shopping when hungry, I can assure you that it’s a bad idea to go shopping when you are hungry. It was The Attack of the (On Sale) Expensive Tortilla Chips. I mixed it with a lot of meat so…
Spider-man Noir is really cool. Victoria BC at -4°. Panic in the streets. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 30 I have discovered that this long persistent cold has put a barrier around my high intensity workout. I haven’t fully completed one since either early in this phase or late in Phase 8. At the gym yesterday, I wanted to see if I could push past it. It was going better but the SI (sacroiliac) joint…
A crossover that won’t happen in movies. Vancouver sees winter. -3° Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 29 We start a Monday with a communications challenge. I’m exposing myself with this blog and the journey always includes notes from people that observe that the diet process is stressful and I should find an easier way to do it. In my experience “easy” ways to diet are accompanied by the sales of useless products by snake oil…
Retro Spider-man always helps my mood. Light snow in West Vancouver. Unacceptable for February. Sorry rest of Canada. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 28 No blog post yesterday. I was too messed up by situational stress and feeling crappy. Eating is off. I am grabbing carbs for basic fuel – so it feels. Is that real? I went to the gym but could not get near a deadlift station. Most annoying. I did a second…
I stumbled across this image on the web. I’m not sure if it’s real. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 26 Anger and diet. Not a good mix. Frustration and diet. Not a good mix. What is a good mix? Peanuts and chocolate. I wonder about institutions. The Vancouver School Board could not be annoying me and my fellow parents any more than if they hired a Mariachi band to play outside our windows while we…
