Mon Jul 21 10:00:01 UTC 2025 ======================================== Slept from ten-thirty to six-thirty. Woke several times in the night. Sunny. Highs in the upper 70s. Northeast winds up to 10 mph. Started reading Dan Simmon's Hyperion. A Hell of an opening sentence: > THE HEGEMONY CONSUL sat on the balcony of his ebony spaceship and played Rachmaninoff’s Prelude in C-sharp Minor on an ancient but well-maintained Steinway while great, green, saurian things surged and bellowed in the swamps below. Almost something from the Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest, but maybe I love it? Washed linens. Forty-minute walk in the morning. Sunny and breezy. Checked out the fitness center and did a set on the bench press. Servings: grains 3/6, fruit 1/4, vegetables 4/4, dairy 3/2, meat 2/3, nuts 0/0.5 Brunch: corn chips Lunch: hot dog, tomato, carrots Afternoon snack: banana, potato chips Dinner: meatloaf, potato, broccoli
