Today is Tuesday October 11,2005. I am wearing a Hawaiian type dark blue shirt with white leaves on it. I am wearing light jeans and those slip on shoes. I am currently sitting in my cube typing away. I had V8 juice for breakfast and just ate one sunflower seed. I find it odd how I am able to eat sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds, shell and all. It is odd because I hate nuts. Now that I think about it nuts are basically seeds. I think the reason I hate nuts is because as a child I never figured out that you were supposed to eat the nut inside the shell. If you have ever consumed a peanut shell you know it is like eating bark. I also think that I don't like beans because at daycare we were forced to eat those things. Franks and beans was on the menu every day. I figured out how to pick the franks outta the beans. That was probably why I was so skinny as a child. Speaking of losing weight. I am still on my No Cheese, No Desserts diet. It is working so far. My BP is 142/82. I miss cheese though. Getting plain hamburgers for lunch is a little bland. I am wondering what a meat lovers pizza will taste like without the cheese. I guess I'll find out. I will probably go off this diet on the trip. I hear fried cheese is a delicacy in Prague. Speaking of fried cheese, if anyone is in Lubbock get me a plate of the famous fried cheese from Spanky's and send them my way. Well, back to work, not much to say today.

Thought of the Day
"I was free and clear. I was living the dream. I was stripped to the waist eating a block of cheese the size of a car battery."
"Before we go any further, I'd just like to point out how disturbing it is that you equate eating a block of cheese with some sort of bachelor paradise."
