With all this attention I've been paying lately to controlling my blood sugar, it's somewhat amusing that I forgot to take my medicine yesterday. More amusing because my numbers were still ideal until this morning's test, which was just barely above the goal. :)

I must make a project out of some recipes, particularly breakfast. Eggs get monotonous very quickly, I've found. This from somebody who's eaten 3 slices of bread, peanut butter, and a banana for breakfast almost every day for the past year and a half.

Maybe I'll just try a different random addition every morning. Cheese, well, duh... almost a requirement. Salsa's obvious, and Sriracha is nice. What about... peanut butter? Cream cheese? Mustard? Ranch dressing? Jello?

On second thought, I'll be looking at recipes after all. ;)


Yesterday, running late on the way to work, I got stuck behind an old couple in some white boat of car with a handicapped parking sticker, going 30 in a 40 zone where many people go 50. I was grumbling to myself, where are the cool grandpas? Young handicapped people don't drive slow. Most elderly people without the parking sticker don't seem to drive slow. Almost all elderly people with the sticker do though. Or maybe it's just 'cause I'm from Florida where they practically give you the sticker on your 65th birthday, and the vision test is passed by anyone with eye sockets.

Anyway. So I'm thinking these somewhat unfair thoughts as I pull onto I-70, when up zooms an old Mustang convertible with the top down, old guy driving with his arm casually leaning on the door, his wife (presumably) in some kind of scarflike head covering (the kind that make people look mysterious and glamorous somehow, unless they're Mother Teresa anyway) grinning with absolute joy. Cool :)


Going today to look at apartments. Cypress Whatsit has got a 1-bedroom townhouse to see now, though it's not cleaned up yet from the former renter. I picked up a different apartment guide and it's got a couple of cheaper places to check out, one with 2-bedroom apartments for $460 (how do they do it? Sounds kinda scary).


The ants in the kitchen are getting overwhelming again. I wound up microwaving one of them with my breakfast, and after 3 minutes of nuking it was still perfectly happy. Sigh.


I spent much time last night hashing out various combinations of multiclassing and WOTC prestige classes for my spiked chain fighter. I came to a lot of conclusions about Fighter prestige classes, which is that they mostly suck for Spiked Chain users. Including the one designed for Spiked Chain users.

Templar is cool though -- the true neutral fire god Kossuth from Forgotten Realms favors the spiked chain, and Marabi just happens to be true neutral and likes fire. Well now.

If I emphasize Fighter more than Templar until I have its best goodies, I can come up with something nice. I wind up with all the tactical feats I want by 10th, Greater Weapon Specialization at 13th and Whirlwind Attack by 16th. The first level of Templar that delays the other stuff still gets me an increased Will save, and a 1st level spell if I have 12 or more WIS.
