To bed around 22:00, up at 4:30. Sleep was short, yesterday was long. Not too, too much. Sleep was delicious. A rather good day and night.
It was 60° when I went to bed, and woke. Outside. I opened up as I went to bed. It only got to 73° in the main house. Upstairs was running a bit hot, if I think that was me. Sometimes I still warm my environment, like a stove. It should have been two degrees cooler, at least.
I wondered if diabetes was up, but at 136 fasting, with a 126, 140, and 128 average for the week, biweek, and month, respectively, not so much. That bump to 140? That was eating a full McDonald's meal. No fries or bun anymore. I wasn't thinking when I ordered, just rolled with the results. So, yeah. I sometimes have been able to do that from time to time. No more. I guess I was just hot.
A bite to eat, boiled eggs, four. I keep overdoing them! I keep cutting the time. It doesn't matter. The first recent batch I brought to a boil. I gave them eleven minutes, lid on, heat off, after they hit the boil. They seemed only a bit overdone. Two dozen, but in a very big, 24 quart kettle, filled to just above the eggs. This time, similar fill, but three dozen. They came to a boil, the heat was again turned off, but this time the lid was removed and they were only given eight minutes. In both cases, the eggs were drained of hot water then immediately set under running cold water for about three minutes. Oddly, these last eggs were more overdone than the first! Bleh. Science, as I have said, isn't science. It is engineering, which is trial and error, every... damned... time. And, yes, cooking is science. Actually most "scientific" discovery is accidental or incidental... doubling down on the engineering trope.
Well, time to brush, shower, and shave. Two showers in a row? Oh yea. Quite nice.
