The Archies - Sugar, Sugar

I have not tracked carbs. Oh, I have been wary of them and in general, my approach has been zero carbs, but I have never applied a data field for them.

I decided to end that today.

I scoured the entire 37th Expedition discovering that for the past 31 days I ate a total of...57 carbs.

That is actually a bit higher than what I have done because I went through the historical data of the table since 29E and saw most of them average around 1 per day. But, it was elevated for 30E and current because of that nature's vitamin, beef liver.

I was hoping the addition of the overall carbs would not stray too far from the fat kcal % message and it does not. For 36E, you are talking about grams of 221 + 68 + 0.8. Or a calories of 1989 + 272 + 3.2.

3 calories a day from carbs!

And thus, you can see why I never felt the need to address it. Still, there is potential for a wallop: earlier this Expedition I ate 7.6 oz of liver. That added 11 grams of carbs for a single day, putting me at 1.8 grams a day. Or, just over 7 calories! I think we're gonna make it.

"Watchin' Some Good Friends Screamin' '...Let's Kick It!'"

For all the bravado of yesterday, I had nothing today. But there is a lot on my mind...though it is as it ever was, something that comes in handy as I broke down the rules to War of the Rings with my son in creating a manageable howto for the user. It called back to my days of being a technical writer.

But my nervous system is janky. HRV is Bryan Adams' fourth studio album. There are times when there is a garage band in the cage that is working on the intro to VH's Hot for Teacher.

This past weekend, I picked up a patch of poison ivy after taking the family out to toss an Aerobie over at Blue Lagoon Park. It was the first time we had thrown a rectangle-like version of an Aerobie. Our collective aim told that particular story, or there was a rift in the space-time continuum that spawned a vortex within a thicket.

Despite being aware of the poison ivy and calling off the event, I thought I would complete the memory and bring back some of that choice urushiol. It took a couple of days for my souvenir to develop. But, unlike the past where I would take a fired-up hair dryer straight away to it for some desperate relief, I am largely indifferent to it. Yeah, I can tell it is itchy, but I am apathetic to its resolution.
