It begins again

I logged into Amp today, clocked in, found that Appointment Manager was broken and there was nothing in the mailbox but a to-do list from the district manager. I ordered my business cards and will check the list again tomorrow. Friday I have a small business class at 8 AM, ugh. Next week I'll actually start looking at Work Center to see if I have any work. I see from Elizabeth's e-mail that there's going to be more bodies at Damonte Ranch this year, so who knows, I might not have to go up there after all. 

Weight was slightly up but BG was normal and so was BP. Had a flax muffin with oatmeal for breakfast along with an English muffin and the usual coffee. Since I woke up around 0600 and ate at 0800, I was hungry again by 1300 and had a couple of peanut butter sandwiches. This raised my blood sugar quite a bit by dinner time, when I had turkey and what was left of the mashed potatoes, green beans, and gravy. Drank a lot of tea and other fluids today, so we'll see how everything looks in the morning. 

Lacking gumption, I didn't go out for groceries today, though in truth I didn't have to, and the 5% senior discount wasn't enough to pry me away from Civilization: Beyond Earth, which despite its shortcomings is better than Alpha Centauri since you have more freedom to pick your ideology and path to victory instead of being shackled to whatever deranged future your character is assigned. Tech trees have also mutated into a tech web, which makes things a little harder to find, but fortunately there's a good search function. Minor annoyances: you can't edit the faction leader's name or the city names. Welp. 

Tomorrow I think I'll go out, pick up my stuff from the post office, do a little shopping, and do some more cleaning up. 

ugh, more snow

How everything looked in the morning was heavier and more sugary, by which I mean the waking BG was over 160. BP at least was normal. I cooked a couple of eggs and the last part of the sausage roll for breakfast, toasted the last of the multigrain bread because it was starting to look a little iffy, and wrapped up the eggs & sausage in a tortilla. Had some soup for lunch and half a kielbasa with a bag of California mix for dinner, and managed to keep the BG nominal all day.

Still no response from my office manager regarding the questions I asked. Most of the stuff on Anne's to-do list has to do with posting my picture in various places, and I'm not doing that until Samantha shears me next week.

So it was that I spent most of the day playing Civilization: Beyond Earth, this time as the leader of the North Sea Alliance, and I am living up to that by having most of my cities in the water. I did bag up some garbage but didn't go out in the snow to dump it because it was snowing all day, and it looks like we'll get more tomorrow during the day, maybe letting up in the late afternoon. Regardless, I need to go out and get more eggs tomorrow, and I need to drop off the rent check too. 

So far we've gotten more snow in this last week than I remember seeing in the past couple of winters. That global warming is some serious horseshit.
