Sober Year 1 (Day 368)
Keto Day 7

I worked 10am to 7pm a little earlier than I normally do so I had to eat breakfast in a bit of a hurry. I had woke up slowly and was just kind of puttering around I noticed that it was getting on a little past 9am while I was cooking breakfast and that would have been a little more than an hour before I started getting really ready for work as I had already showered. And then I realized that, “Oh yeah, I work early today!” I'm glad that I figured that out at 9:23 and not 10:05 when they would have been calling me asking where I was. I did have time to eat breakfast properly, but I didn't have time to drink all of the coffee that I would have. A couple of the doctors that I follow online are saying that drinking too much coffee is a really bad idea for the “Proper Human Diet” Supposedly coffee has several "anti-nutrients" in them that seem to leech nutrients from your blood and body. I don't think I'll be dropping coffee anytime soon. 

I did manage to work on the weigh in spreadsheets a bit before work preparing for the upcoming year.

Work was split into a 5:3 split and the first half I was Supervisor the entirety of the first half. But I was kind of brain dead during the first half. It went pretty smoothly, but I was really just zombie shuffling around the first half of the day.

I did take notice of a bit of a strange individual. A guy came through all growly because somebody DARED to say, “Happy Holidays” he was really rather upset that he heard somebody say those blasphemous words. “Christmas is for CHRIST! Saying Happy Holidays is taking Christ out of Christmas!” someone really crapped in is cornflakes by DARE saying “Happy Holidays” I'm not even sure if somebody had said it to him in particular, he just heard somebody say say it. The odd thing was that he was bald and on the back of his head was tattooed with a very artistic Celtic art Mjolnir Tattoo and the front of his sweatshirt said “Proud Pagan” I'll never tell anybody what beliefs they're allowed to have, but it is strange that somebody is cranky that, “they're taking Christ out of Christmas” While they have symbols of other Gods tattooed onto their bodies and they wear clothing dedicated to other beliefs. This is America, you're free to believe anything you want, it's just odd. Writing this story down seems very familiar. Deja Vu perhaps?

I took advantage of the Buy 2 Get 1 Free on Monster Energy (Not sponsored) I did the math and it was a better deal at $3.49 a can I paid $7.10 after taxes for the three cans, and the single Red Bull that I would have two times a day was $3.05 coming up to $6.10 for two cans of Red Bull.

On the way out the door coming home for lunch I forgot to pick up more cheese as you really can't have Chili without cheese. So I stopped by the smaller store on my way home. It took a bit of self control to not pick up some corn chips to go into the chili as that was sounding like a really good combination.

The second half of the day I was running Self Checkout for three solid hours. I kept reminding myself to not amp myself up against running self checkout, the vast, vast majority of people are just going through without any issues. There were people screeching at me that they DARED had to stand in line. There was one guy standing next to the cigarette case yelling at me that he wanted a pack of cigarettes. I told him that there was a line and he'd just have to wait his turn. It was 5pm on the Saturday before Christmas, you're going to have to wait your turn. He kept waving at me and waving his arms towards the cigarette cases. I just waving back and waving my hands at the swarm going through Self Checkout. I apologize for the existence of other people. 

Walking around Self Checkout there was a really strange lightning bolt like feeling that shot up from my left foot through up to my lower back and the pain started fading out. I'm not sure if I had a pinched nerve or what that worked itself out, but at least it doesn't hurt anymore.  

I kind of shutdown when I got home from work. I did manage to grill some burgers. But it was a bit of a challenge to stay away to write this out. 

I don't know all of the details, but I've seen some headlines saying that President Trump had signed another executive order that apparently legalized marijuana. I don't have any interest in trying that drug, but I can't say the same for the neighbors as it smells like a skunk exploded in a sewer in my house.
