Didn't post the last... until just now.

I thought I had.  My internet is extremely spotty.  Clicking the publish tab doesn't mean it publishes.  If it doesn't connect through it will simply not send it.  Doesn't matter, only, maybe, one reader here legitimately?  Two?  Three?  They don't show up, but... I get hints in other ways.

No extra coffee.  The extra water I found isn't... enough.  I doubt it, after rechecking, will get me through to when the filters arrive, then are installed, then water is made.  They are set to arrive Wednesday, but they could arrive quite late.  Often early afternoon, but not always.  So... either I skimp on coffee, a day or two.  Or more likely, assuming I can, I buy a bit of water.  Though... perhaps there is a way to reset the filters.  Just because time or amount of water through, is gauged, doesn't mean the filters are used up.  As a fact, the water is still coming through as quite fresh.  With no more particulate than when I first installed them.  I'll... do some looking, shortly.

I am having a second vinegar tonic.  And enjoying, to be honest.  Kefir isn't ready to reset, so I can't have more.  Used up most of what was available.  It's been so cool that kefir just isn't fermenting fast enough.  It is taking two to three days to finish.  Oh well.

Burgers tomorrow, and maybe another round of those ribs.  Or chops.  Eggs too, perhaps.  Not a lot.  But, I suppose, eating two meals every other day, light at that, would be fine.  One meal a day on the alternate days?  If I can keep that pace.  Though, perhaps, I need to figure out how to add more bulk.  Not... going.  Ugh.

My brother didn't call back.  So be it.  I simply won't worry about it.

Blood sugar came down a bit, but not a lot.  I was more concerned that it wouldn't have dropped at all.  It was 153 a bit ago.  But, the weekly average is down to 189, two week is 205, monthly is down to 209.  Those, all of them, aren't bad.  The trend is good.  And, it looks like even when I messed around it didn't completely bend the trend out of shape.  Can't eat potatoes.  Oh, but they are so fine this time of year.

Just a bit more gaming.  Hoping to get to bed before... 22:00?  23:00?  Something like that.  And, to set the alarm for eight and ten.  Yes.  I did get through the game, on the second from hardest difficulty, in about five hours.  It doesn't allow an "S+", given the tools I used, but did give an "S", which allowed for a particular bonus item which will make the hardest difficulty easy(er).

I have started the most difficult level, with all those tools, plus what was earned in that last playthrough.  Hoping to pick up a weapon, which along with what I just earned, can be used in a playthrough of the hardest level, but not in a game plus situation.  Hoping to get S+ with that.  Not sure I can, will find out.  Ugh.  Why?  Because... it's there?

Yes, I will hit the game a bit more.  Stuck on a particularly difficult area.  Just need to survive it.  It's... a bit of a tricky part, but I've played it through before.  This part of the game, the tools won from other playthroughs?  Simply have no bearing.  They can't be used to any advantage.  There are several parts of the game like that.  It's... just... to make sure you can/will get your nose rubbed in shit before moving on.  Or... making you go away.  So be it.

So... strange.  Yes... I... look, when presented... with the... right cues?  Something.  Oh, then, of course, led the wrong way?  Maybe.  The hunger pangs are intense.  The longing certainly there.  How can you be, born?  Both right, and wrong?  I don't know, and at times, I... just can't always care.

But, don't worry, I can be quite the gentleman, no matter?

The cost is that you must be quite the lady.  Check, mate?

The Devil, they say!?!  If so, not the one you know.  Amen.
