So, I went out today to run some errands in the gray light of day. The bank was quick, but after that I tried to find a new denture bath and struck out.

Every store I went to did not have any in stock or on the shelf.

I worked myself up into quite the tizzy and then went binging.

*sigh*

I ate:
4 Peanut Butter Cookies
2 Star Crunches
3 Bananas (Unripe)
1 Plate of Pulled Pork BBQ with rice/hash, coleslaw and 2 small hushpuppies.

I'm not sure where I'm at calorie-wise. Before the plate, I was at about 1000 cals.

Probably at about 1800? Maybe?

Not sure.

I'm not looking forward to tomorrow's weigh-in.

UPDATE:
D'oh! I forgot to mention what I'm grateful for today.

Today, I am grateful for the salespeople at the various stores I stopped at who took the time to try and help me. Even if I didn't find what I was looking for, their efforts were very much appreciated.

The sun decided to come out today, just before sunset.

Fucking tease.

Tomorrow, though, is supposed to be really nice. Hopefully, a bit less breezy.

After work, I ran around and did some stuff before coming home. Including meeting a friend at Charbux, where I had a latte and a couple of blueberry muffins.

Yeah.

Kinda went over the caloric max today.

I figure I'm at about 2000 cals.

Probably not enough to do damage, so I'm not too worried.

Today, I am grateful for my hat. It's a black,knit cap (almost like a skullcap) that was given to me several years ago by a lady friend, when I lived in Cincinasti. I LOVE this hat. It keeps my head nice and warm and people tell me it looks really good on me. So I guess I'm doubly grateful to it! :D

Today the weather has been cold, gray and soggy. I woke up late and didn't want to leave the house at all, but I had errands to run.

Today, I ate:

2 cans of Sliced White Potatoes
1 can of Jack Mackerel
1 Golden Delicious Apple
1 Package of Nutter Butters.

Altogether, that's about 1390 calories.

I had a red pear waiting in the wings, but did not get a chance to eat it and am not feeling very hungry at the moment, so I can save it for tomorrow.

My roommate and his guitarist friend, J, have been working on new songs tonight. They've got this cool, retro bikini beach rock thing going on, and they're experimenting with a couple of covers that sound really good. Especially, 'In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida' and 'I Put a Spell on You.' I'm very impressed.

They're upstairs now, relaxing, and I'm down here listening to Clan of Xymox, Aretha Franklin and Bauhaus. Yeah. I know. Weird.

Today, I am grateful for cups of warm tea. Because there's nothing that makes me feel warm and cozy moreso than a lovely cup of warm tea with lemon and sugar.

Today has been busy,if not exactly productive.

Took my friend, P, out on some errands and was supposed to go hang out with other friends this evening, but one of them wasn't feeling well, so I'm home.

Tonight I am eating:
2 packages of microwaveable long-grain brown rice
1 can of chunk chicken breast
1 banana
1 Snickers bar.

Altogether that is 1510 calories.

I've decided I'm going to start a gratefulness diary and record one thing each day that I'm grateful for. I think it will help improve my mindfulness and my appreciation for the people and things around me.

Today, I am grateful for the roof over my head. Especially in these cold times.
