Glacial Start

I wanted to be able to add something about a torrid finish to the title but as you’ll see in this short one, it won’t be the case. I came alive somewhere between eight and nine. I dozed in and out for most of the hour so I can’t tell you specifically that I got up. I did use the bathroom a couple times but otherwise I didn’t really get up per se. I watched YouTube in my bed, not even sure what. I was a daze. I think it was the terrible night that wrecked my morning. I didn’t even bother setting any goals today. Around half noon I showered, it sort of knocked me down a peg and I had to lie down. I’m not sure what was the matter but decided that I need to get some water into me and have some food. I wandered down to the kitchen and spent a long time gazing into the fridge. I decided at once that I’d use the last two bacon and cheddar sausages as the focal point of the dish but I wasn’t certain on what I’d do with them. I have been buying more fancy cheese these past months after getting berated by Sassy Girl for my love of Kraft Singles. I had a package of smoked gouda slices and one of monterey jack. I picked the smoked gouda and rather than using a wrap, which felt excessive for an intact sausage (since I didn’t feel like cutting these up), I opted for a type of bun. In this case, it was a pizze bun. I threw some spinach in there because I need to use it up and also eat more greens and voila. It was great, very flavourful. I should apologize for the cross section photo, but I won’t. I feel it is important to show how it sort of melted together.

I didn’t feel ghastly full afterwards but I was still lacking any kind of drive for the day. I’m not sure what happened to me. Instead I slinked down to my basement lair and turned on the tube. By this time it was mid-afternoon and after watching several clips of it on YouTube I decided to watch Gladiator. It was as good as I remember. I always get a surge of adrenaline when he reveals his name to the emperor. I got a little emotional at the end also when the figuines of his wife and child are buried. The movie ended around dinner time so I warmed up a Stouffer’s Bistro panini, mozzarella and meatball. I also pocketed three granola bars and along with two full pints of water that was my meager dinner. Later I’d graze on two cookies and two more pints of water. I watched Superstore until the Leafs came on. That game was like it was on fast forward. So fast paced! In the end it was disappointing but well fought and worth a point. I made my way upstairs and didn’t have any issue passing out shortly after ten.
