This Guardians of the Galaxy image is closer to what I remember as a kid. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 56 The sanity chip is not well screwed in. What British sci-fi comedy am I referencing? A funny thing happened on the way to Yoga class. My ankle, between the heel and the actual bone on the side was registering as painful. Out of the blue. In class it was giving me moderate trouble but…
Drax (the green one) is part of Guardians of the Galaxy. I think they should vacation in PEI. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 55 Time to put this derailing train of a diet/fitness program back on the rails. Yikes. It has been 120 km/h all week and when things aren’t right, the eating goes sideways. The advice of taking more sleep is valid but difficult to achieve. The laundry sadly does not march itself down…
Zatanna the sorceress calms me down. Ucluelet by the water is a place to calm down. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 54 Big snack attack last night. I think if I can navigate through the next few days without any major slipups, I’ll be good. I have a meat and veggie supply shortage so I need to shop tonight. Sleep would really help as would fewer last minutes projects with children and strange happenings on…
Early image of Gamora from Guardians of the Galaxy. Brandon came to mind today at 14° today. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 53 My lifestyle does not support my weight loss attempts. I am too stressed and too busy. Or, is it that I have too much stressful stuff going on that makes me busy or is it too much stuff making me stressed? Anyway, I think I have to not give up because, honestly,…
I saw a new trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy. Looks like fun. Saskatoon is a meagre 16° today. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 52 Pink sequined outfits and a bad diet day. Huh? Yesterday went according to plan in the morning. I took my son to a dance competition where Dads were scarce, where there were more boy dancers than last year, but existed a stunning number of little tiny girl pixies. Shortly upon…
I found this cover to an old Justice League comic that looked totally unfamiliar. Snow still in Vancouver. Seriously. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 51 I undertook one of my least favourite activities: the early morning workout. Circumstances forced me to reschedule to the morning. Part of the workout required that using a think rope, I drag a punching bag with a rope across the floor. With the personal trainer sitting on it. I didn’t…
I wonder what this guy did to have Spider-man on his hood? Let’s pretend it’s not 1° in Vancouver and go to the beach in Parksville instead. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 50 Wow. This Phase of the Mutant Diet has about a month left. Last night I discussed with my wife the need for us to dial back our reactions to frustrations. These include (but aren’t limited to) other drivers, school system issues, work…
An old Iron Man cover that I suspect I used to have but died at the Cottage. Which looks somewhat like this cottage near Picton. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 49 Yesterday was a full-on dietary train wreck, but without the desserts. The Vancouver Bach Choir concert was on, was amazing, and I drank and ate to celebrate. Today, I must reel myself in and try to deal with the stressors that are not helping.…
Hulk and Wolverine from the cover of Wolverine’s first appearance seemed to work for today. I really do want to go to Cape Breton Island someday for summer vacation. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 48 This is the kind of day where diets go sideways. I could not face a power bar or making bacon and eggs this morning so I delayed with chores and then went to Starbucks and had a bacon, cheese and…
This is fairly representative on my mind today. Positively balmy in Toronto today for a February day. Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 47 Last I checked exercise was supposed to help one’s mental state. At this point I’m feeling totally bummed out. I’ll have to see with my sore limbs what I can do that the gym today. All this pain and just too much stuff going on clearly led to fries. It was a…
