Gaming the system
Mmmm…oatmeal! Behold, my dinner. (No, I’m lying. I stole that picture off the internet. I was too lazy even to take my own oatmeal picture).
I have a blood test tomorrow, and it’s the stupid 14-hour fasting one, so that’s my last food until noon. I’m going to turn in early and hope to sleep through.
See, I really, really don’t want to be put on statins. On the other hand, I HATE arguing with doctors. So far, the oatmeal trick has worked pretty well.
There’s no cholesterol in beer, right?

Mmmm…my favorite!
That there is Maya the jaguar, star of a recent BBC documentary. Don’t know if they played it over your way. She was a leetle orphling keeten in the show. Not so little now.
And the thing she’s licking? A blood popsicle! Mmmmm!
It rarely gets above mid 80s here. When it gets there, it rarely stays for long. We rarely go a week without rain. But we’ve had weeks and weeks of drought and a couple of weeks of hot. It even stayed hot at night the last few, an unheard of thing.
Everything is yellow and dry. The chickens are panting like dogs. There is no end in sight.
I mean, it ain’t Baton Rouge in August hot (why the hell did we always go visit Grandma in August?), but it’s hot. I’d forgotten how much I hate hot.
