Progress on most fronts
Did the voting thing at the Convention Center, which is not quite up the street from the post office as I thought but is rather a couple blocks down and up hill from the Mizpah and Belvada hotels. While the Convention Center itself is a very nice building, I don't fancy walking uphill two blocks from either of those hotels in July, not that I would be deranged enough to hold a convention here in the first place. Anyway, after that I went down to the office and got my package from the VA (which proved to contain metformin and carvedilol), deposited Amanda's check into the N3F account, and killed a bunch of frog portals as I went along.
Stopped at Raley's for more tea, some bread and English muffins, peanut butter, a lot of yogurt, and milk to wash the peanut butter down with. I don't know whether they got shorted on their deliveries or the mobs of seasoned citizens before me pillaged the store brand stuff, but all varieties of Raley's bread were sold out, so I had to shell out $3.50 for a loaf of "artisanal smooth multigrain" bread which didn't impress me one damn bit.
Anyway, I got rung up, lugged it all home, scanned it in and managed to get it all put away before my video appointment with Dr. B, who was as expected very happy about the improved numbers; she trimmed me back to 40 units of Novolin R before dinner, which means if I hit my numbers I'll be down to 20/25/35. That should help with the weight loss. She had a little trouble convincing the system to cough up more test strips, since the VA insists they sent me a bunch on 5/23, but I can't for the life of me find the damn things.
Lost two out of three to the Red Sox at Fenway. The first two games were close, but I got blown out in the third one.
After that, I was too tired to do laundry or blogging. Still, I got most of the to-do list done, and there's always tomorrow.
