Someone in my immediate vicinity has made, and is consuming, toast. And while I know I won't eat it, the smell is very enticing. I don't miss bread, much, but I kind of miss toast. So be it - a small sacrifice for vastly improved health.
Not that it feels like it today - I'm still fighting night sweats, and while I can get a reasonably good first sleep, my second sleep is just bloody awful. Flip from side to side, sweat, throw the covers off, freeze, pull them up, flip to the other side, repeat. I'm half-asleep doing this, which is, I guess, an improvement from a month ago, but when the alarm goes off, I feel like compost - it doesn't even rise to the level of shit. New herbs from the acupuncturist started yesterday; she thought they would take about a week to really work. Don't know whether I hope they do or not, since they taste substantially nastier than the first lot. And they certainly didn't improve things last night.
I used my computer last night with f.lux active. It's a little disconcerting, because the screen background gets redder when I scroll, and then lightens up again. I have no idea if the change made me more likely to fall asleep when I did (shortly after 10, I believe) or not. Having the blue clockface blocked was less of an issue last night than the night before, so I believe I'll make that permanent.
143.0 this morning - apparently I was carrying some water I didn't know about. I had 3 slices of bacon, 2 3/4-oz cheese snacks, miscellaneous aged gouda (probably about 4 oz total), some walnuts, a square of 85% cacao chocolate, and 4 mini-meatloaves yesterday. It doesn't seem like much - and very dairy-centric. With Lee home (tonight or early tomorrow, he thinks), we should get back to a more structured diet. I'm fasting for convenience at the moment - didn't have time for breakfast. I have cheese snacks with me and will eat them when I get hungry, though, so I don't know that I'd call it an IF, exactly.
Ugh. Just ugh.
