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...

Feet didn't hurt this morning, but I felt like I woke up with a hangover style headache. Not sure what that's about. 

A bit annoyed by the measurements this morning. Reminding myself that daily fluctuations happen. I think I might have had a bit too much meatloaf last night. Then again justifying daily fluctuations is a shortcut to insanity. And one of the reasons they say to avoid doing daily weigh ins.

The Amazon order finally charged my account. It still says that it's going to be delivered tomorrow. And the site says that it was shipped, but the only update on the “See all updates” is “Package left the shipper facility” it doesn't say where it's coming from, but it does say that it's still scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. But the last order said that it was going to be delivered on that Tuesday...until that Tuesday, and then it said that it was going to be delayed. Later in the evening it updated it had left the Amazon location in Oklahoma City. So yeah, it should be here tomorrow.

I skipped the cream in the coffee today, and I didn't have the burps that I had been having the last couple of days.

I did mess with the bigger 3D printer for the while today. I still couldn't get that stripped screw out. I'm pretty sure that I messed it up further. There is supposedly a trick to try that includes super gluing the Allen Key into the screw's notch. But whenever I glued the wrench into the slot, no matter how long I let it set, it just came out of the notch as soon as I tried to turn it. And I was clumsy during one attempt and squirted super glue all over the head of the screw. I can't help but think that it might be done. I don't want to throw it away because well 1. It was the first printer that I had ever bought, and 2. I can't believe that this several hundred dollar printer is completely ruined because of a screw that can't even be a millimeter in diameter. I'll keep poking at it. But I'm not very confident that I'll ever get it out.

After dealing with the printers I baked some chicken for lunch. The top joint on my right pointer finger feels bruised from trying to force that damned wrench into place. I'm really kind of bummed out that I couldn't get that screw out. But I did manage to take inventory and get a meal plan together, for lunch anyway. I didn't have enough meat for dinners for the week.

I had picked up a pack of hot dogs a couple of days ago to have with lunch, but the lunch that day was filling enough without the additional hot dogs. And I was really hungry this afternoon so I went ahead and had that pack this afternoon.

I bought more steaks for dinner. People say that Keto/Ketovore/Carnivore is surprisingly cheap. But I don't know if I'm doing this right. Pork Butts are on sale this week, so tomorrow I'll pick up one when I do my grocery shopping. The store cuts them into steaks. And those tend to make quite a few.

Should sleep rather well tonight. I didn't have as many energy drinks that I would normally have.
