It's back under the start of the year again and only 4.3 lbs (2 kg) away from the “progress goal” of where I started the tracking back in 2014, only 1.3 lbs (0.6 kg) away from the lowest weight so far this year, and only about 8 lbs (3.6 kg) away from being under 40 BMI (morbidly obese ) I took a moment before work to record the other political short video that I was thinking of making, but again for some reason when I tried to transfer the files to the computer it only played the audio of the video, but not the video. When I play the video on my phone it plays the video, but doesn't want to play on my computer. And I had a hard time getting...

I'm not going to call it a resolution; because that's a good way to not get it done, but I would like to get my 3D printers back up and going again. It's unlikely that I'd get any Cosplay done as, well I don't think I'll be able to lose enough gut to fit into an Iron Man or Master Chief suit. But it would be nice to get some projects going again.

Started off the day thinking that it was nice to start the day without the existential dread that I've been dealing with lately. I've been feeling a lot more optimistic lately. Not sure if that's the feeling of the New Year, or the lack of the downer that is alcohol. And dealing with the people panic buying was a lot easier than it has been in the past.

A lot of people were freaking out because they're expecting a winter storm to come in this weekend. And also there was a change in the state's sales tax system so a lot of people were coming in to get “tax free” groceries. Thankfully there wasn't a lot of people that tried to argue about the sales tax. What had happened was that they had gotten rid of the sales tax at the state level, but there's still sales tax at the county and city level. And that's only on the Food Stamp level food. So there's still the full sales tax on non-food items. And there's still a 1.75% tax on food here in my hometown. It is strange that every single reaction to the lowering of the tax rate seems to be complaining. People are seriously completely pissed off that they are paying a lower tax rate on food. I just don't understand.

The Divan I had for lunch kind of tasted like cat food. It is a dairy heavy recipe and if I remember correctly dairy doesn't work very well when freezing and thawing before eating. The last couple of days when I come home for lunch I tell myself that I'm going to set up a Taco Salad. But I sit down and it's time to get back to work before I do it. All it really takes is to brown the ground beef before mixing everything up to let it chill in the fridge, but I have to get back to work before I have time to brown the hamburger. I'm repeating myself, but I'm tired. But not the same kind of tired as before I restarted this latest round of blogs.

Since I didn't have the taco salad set up I just baked some bratwursts. But I am going to need to cook that salad pretty soon. The bagged salad that goes into it isn't going to last forever.

Short post again because I got distracted after work and didn't get started until later.
