A Tad Discouraging

Apparently it takes 3 weeks to loose 5 pounds but just 4 days to gain them back. And no I did not gain them during the spaguetti carbonnara incident, I gained them during labor day weekend. Aided by a potent combo of bread and cheese from assorted farmer’s markets along the way, and a few pounds of local clams, prepared in all sorts of experimental broths (all including garlic, white wine or ales). All of this washed down with some excellent French Rhones and Spanish Bierzos. It  also seems my nightly ping pong tournament did not burn as much energy as half primary combined with a 5 mile walk. I do not claim unfairness on this one.  I just wish I could find some balance for an extended period.  I now enough about this crap to understand that nothing is in permanent balance. Come  to think of it permanent is a pretty useless word. So I’m cleaning up after this  frat party I threw myself, and on we go. Don’t expect a photo until way into September.
