Took a trip to Sam’s this afternoon. I hate going to Sam’s. It’s such a struggle not to come home with super-sized packages of things that I don’t have any place to store and get deathly tired of before they run out (or they spoil). <\/p>\n
I managed reasonably well against the challenge. Got bags of candy for the office, which was the goal, peanut butter for the squirrels, and only 3 food items for me. I’ve decided to try the all protein diet, no carbs again. I simply have to do something before the season of eating descends and things get even worse. So I got prosciutto (which turned out to be very, um, questionable when I tried it tonight), smoked pork chops (mmm), and some sausage.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately this evening the Carbonara that I tried to make with the proscuitto (diet starts tomorrow) is really sitting poorly. It’s burning. I added some Emeril Parmesan Italian thing from the frig and the garlic and spices set the acid reflux aflame. I’ve gulped down extra Prilosec and a double dose of Pepcid AC. I ate some chicken soup, bread, and milk. They settled things down for a few minutes, but it catches fire again not long after. <\/p>\n
Heaven help me if this is like that sickness after the Gaming Forum at Purdue last month. I can’t afford to be down tomorrow. I have to finish editing the book and write all the text for the Ideas, Announcements, and Blog for INBOX. Besides the Honey Nut Cheerios and chicken soup diet I end up on when acid reflux is bad is wholly incompatible with the all protein, no carbs diet. Hoping for an overnight miracle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
