My left eye randomly twitches. There is a lot of other work that is…
These guys just look cool. Wow, it’s only -2 in St. John’s. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 18 This is a record-breaking sideways week. You can’t diet when multiple messes at your kid’s school derails your schedule. One thing I don’t think that diet programs allow for is the sheer prep time to make food to the dietary standard you’re looking for and do it cost-effectively. If you think, “oh another guy with an excuse,”…
This is how I remember Thor. If you are looking for snow try Haliburton. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 17 Today is going to be a crazy day so I can say that I did better yesterday. But it’s far from being totally on track. The cold is still masking how I’m feeling. It’s also led to unpredictable workouts. I was feeling off with the personal trainer, but a chest press machine let me go…
The battle continues. Victoria BC has a scandal. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 16 I ask you. What next? Oh shit I should never write that. I went out last night and had pizza, beer, mushroom caps, dessert. Why? I was on CBC Radio arguing for the obvious with the Vancouver School Board. www.cbc.ca/player/play/1429642307909 I am stressed about a sick brother, a dead uncle and a freaked-out sister. Oh yeah, and the school board is…
This pretty much sums up how the parents are feeling at my kid’s school. -16 in Toronto Sounds like January to me. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 15 I’m not sure how this week is going to go, but I’m pleased I managed to prepare my supplies for the week. It was a dumb weekend dealing with this mess at my kid’s school.

This pretty much sums up my mood. -14 in Niagara Falls. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 14 I am so not in the right frame of mind for a diet. The Vancouver School Board is threatening to move my son’s French Immersion program to another school that’s a 35-minute bus ride away which passes through Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. What does this have to do with diet? Stress = stress eating. Asking me to condone such…
What I like about Spider-man was his cheekiness. Gasp. -13 in New Brunswick. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 13 Well, this sucks. I still feel like hell. This bug fools you into thinking you’re OK and then the next morning says, “Ha ha, fooled you; you’re still sick.” I forced myself to the gym where it’s too busy and there’s a selection of odd characters. What’s with white old fart guys (who are only a…
She-Hulk would make a good movie. Apparently Moose Jaw is no longer the home to the tallest Moose statue, apparently. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 12 Argh. I’m a mental midget. I still feel like a sloth in living in my airways and I’m trying to stay on track with the diet but, I’m feeling so weird that I don’t know what’s what. Coffee. That’s an idea. I’ve been working on the premise that a…
Mysterio is in the upcoming Spider-man movie. A hot spring bath at Harrison Hot Springs might work. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 11 Oh come on! I just had my breakfast; I ate homemade cookies last night with reckless abandon; I slept horribly; and now I’m hungry again – 10 minutes after breakfast. WTF? To say this is frustrating to do with a cold and constant interruptions in my schedule is an understatement. My issue…
Nick Fury is in the upcoming Spider-man movie. I am excited. I would like to recover from my cold here Tofino. Mutant Diet Phase 9 Day 10 Day 10 of Phase 9. Oi. I’m so not on track, it’s not funny.
