Sober Year 1 (Day 428)
Keto Day 4 (42/365 Days 2026 Keto)

Good streak on the scale over the last couple of days. 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 the cable that I use to plug the phone to the computer to work. It just didn't want to register as connected. I tired to look up if there was a way to transfer the files wirelessly (Strange that isn't a word), but I just didn't have the time to do so. I really hope that the USB ports on my computer aren't going bad.

I did manage to bring the serving of Goulash to work with me so Roommate wouldn't complain about the smell as I ate it. I did come home for a bit just so I could get out of the store. And to take the lunchbox home.

Was a carryout for a good chunk of the day. It was good weather for that. But it was quite boring as I was really just standing around waiting for the day to end. I was scheduled to be in the desk for a bit later in the evening. And then the closing carryout went home “sick” I would feel more bad for him if he wasn't going home “sick” every couple of weeks. He had been working the self checkout a lot, but they had stopped scheduling him for Self Checkout as he had been unreliable. I thought about offering to stay, but I didn't want to work an 11 hour day, and I'm pretty sure that would have given me a couple hours of over time which they wouldn't have accepted

When I got home Roommate was sobbing about how much he hates it here. I don't know what set him off, but he was wailing about the internet being bad. I didn't see any issues with the internet. But he might have had a couple of bad games and of course there had to be a reason for it other than just having some rough luck on some online games. It was a real big flip from when I came home for lunch. He seemed to be in a really good mood this afternoon, but this evening I was starting to get worried about him. I didn't know how to start that conversation with him. I think we're going to have a pretty serious conversation pretty soon. As he was in such a sorry mood I only cooked dinner for myself. And it was a pork loin that he had said that he didn't want to eat any more.
