Somehow Matter Eater Lad is appropriate for this Phase. New Cabinet in Ottawa. I wonder. Mutant Diet Phase 11 Finale This is the finale to a diet/fitness phase that wasn’t. I fly to Toronto tomorrow and by the time I’m back, the festive season is upon us — what I call Damage Control in diet/fitness language. The cold I reported on came back with a vengeance and I don’t get enough sleep. The rest of…
I started Luke Cage season 2 last night. Horrible news from Brampton. Mutant Diet Phase 11 Day 60 Yes, there was cake yesterday. And lots of Indian food. And it was later in the evening. And I wanted more cake. So, I don’t think filling in the chart will help. To honour the attempt to stay on track, I have most of my regular supplies for my regular day. Nothing to see here. Move along.…
Ant Man and the Wasp. Let’s go to Brighton, Ontario. Mutant Diet Phase 11 Day 59 In yoga class today it was kind of like a mini review of the shoulder work from the trainer. There was whining. I tried to keep it in. The lady beside me did not want to hear “Jezis muther fucker bastard god hole jamming fuck,” which was what was going through my head. Ommmmm. And of course it’s my…
This Supergirl cover creeped me out when I was a kid. Vancouver’s Kitsilano neighbourhood is facing some significant changes. Mutant Diet Phase 11 Day 58 Despite the obvious problems, I forced myself to write down my food choices and suck it up to keep going on this thing. Despite the plan to go home and make birthday cake. I see the personal trainer in about 20 minutes to see if we can move the needle…
Wonder Woman makes a sword in case Superman goes bad. Vancouver is dealing with a slow burn transit strike. Mutant Diet Phase 11 Day 57 It’s Day 57. Do I know where my diet is? Last week was rough. Feeling sick and it being Halloween. Good grief, what a combination. Today – just after lunch – seems to better. I still have lingering scratchy throat but I did the gym on Saturday, yoga on Sunday…
Daredevil and Punisher. Apparently in Toronto someone managed to pull a gun while handcuffed in a cruiser. Mutant Diet Phase 11 Day 51 The diet/fitness program has called in sick. Sore throat and low energy. And an urge to binge watch Netflix Marvel shows. Soon, bed. Then a bunch of kids come over for Halloween pizza and a movie. Send healing thoughts.
A cool Avengers cover. CBC was running a piece on the non reporting of school violence. It starts in Windsor. Mutant Diet Phase 11 Day 46 Do you old people remember the famous poster from way back where there was a kitten hanging from a line with the phase “Hanging in there.” I think that’s me. Except it would need a much sturdier rope. The odd exercises to amp up the smaller muscles (i.e. rhomboids…
Green Lanterns. Maybe on TV one day. Newfoundland will likely have influential cabinet ministers, unlike Alberta. You get what you vote for folks. Mutant Diet Phase 11 Day 45 Well, this is going poorly. I’m just not focused on this. I did a workout with the trainer that involved trying to boost up the smaller muscles in the back and legs. Ouch. But the eating is not good. I weakened last night after getting home.…
I wonder if Storm could fix climate change. Whining from Saskatchewan and Alberta today. Mutant Diet Phase 11 Day 44 Shoot. I’ve not been documenting or blogging. I have a trainer appointment in a few minutes. I have spent a lot of the day being incredibly relieved that we don’t have a conservative government in Canada. I just don’t think we can afford going backwards on climate change. We have enough trouble going forward. I…
Wonder Woman is releasing her 750th issue. Greta Thunberg is in Edmonton. I await Alberta government comedy. Mutant Diet Phase 11 Day 40 It took all I had to fill in my diet log from yesterday. Shame. Fatigue. I struggle to keep moving. The distraction factor is maddening. This morning as I’m on the bus on a rain soaked day, I am informed by text message that someone gained access to the building, rifled through…
