What I am listening to today: Lite Hits Classics. So far it's been blockquote below and James Blunt's You're Beautiful (2005):

You can look at the menu
But you just can't eat

Howard Jones, No One Is to Blame (1986)

I had left the waters of the loathsome sardine, didn't I? Just when I thought I was breaking loose and heading out toward open waters, I am being reeled back in. I've got another six days ahead of me leading up to Sunday, The 40th Expedition's weigh-in on the 18th. We'll just chalk it up to budgetary exuberance.

I'll wind up turning in a 21-day streak of that vile thing. But it's only two cans a day that I'll power through in my mornings.

My blood test intrigued me this morning within the context of what I shared in my last post:

• glucose: 76
• ketones: 4.4 (highest yet)
• Dr. Boz: 17.3

This was all in the context of having 3 oz of liver yesterday, which is similar to what I had the other day. I suspect the yardwork elevated the production of ketones. Excess ketones for unneeded energy are not turned into fat and embark on the great oceanic voyage. Sugar however...well, we know all about that:

Whoopi-ty-aye-oh
Rockin' to and fro
Back in the saddle again

Gene Autry, Back in the Saddle Again (1939)

Ok so the above song wasn't in the radio stream—currently Boys II Men's cover of It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday (1991) followed by another cover, I Can Love You Like That (1995). But today's post just feels like a Sleepless in Seattle (1993) theme. Perhaps this site leans more toward You've Got Mail (1998)?:

The odd thing about this form of communication is that you're more likely to talk about nothing than something. But I just want to say that all this nothing has meant more to me than so many somethings.

Finally, this stream drops me off with Out of Touch (1984) from Daryl Hall & John Oates.
