Hunger is lessening.

.

Diminishing, shrinking, abating.  Slowly, steadily.  I had the last portion of steak.  And, yes... twenty five minutes in the oven, at 415 (higher elevation needs a bit more... warmth), works just about right.  It makes it about a rare, medium rare.  Closer yet to rare, but warm through.  Very nice.

I'll have a salad, shortly.  And, maybe, another salad later tonight.  Either meats, or cheeses, with each, but not both?  Maybe both.  I don't know.  I really like the gorgonzola.  That really is nice.  The thing is, it's not terribly pricy (when used an ounce at a time).  But, it goes fast, so you have to use it fairly quickly.  It's very expensive, if wasted.

Hmm...  Oh, while I have tried the anchovies, in water, I haven't tried the actual sardines in water, or really not even water.  Just in their own juices.  Cooked/pasteurized in the cans, creating the fluids.  So, yes, I may try that with this first salad.  I'll skip the gorgonzola, but may add parmesan.  So that it doesn't throw the taste off.  I'd like to see if this works.  Though, given the size and nature of the anchovies, I think this will be just fine... in this way.  As mentioned, it will be much like tuna, only without as much risk of mercury, other heavy metals, and else.

Gaming is going well.  I hit a bit of a snag.  Though, after passing through half a dozen areas which I have had trouble in the past, but this time with ease.  And, after a very short search, I found a method of getting through the snag I did hit.  Further?  The method will work on all of this type of fights going forward.  Previously, I had just struggled through.  Now I can definitively win these types of fights.

Oh, and I ran into something that took me to nearly the end of my last playthrough to beat.  Almost didn't make it.  Don't have a good method.  But this is a once a game type of fight.  Very good.

Just following a guide.  But it is made by a combat, not distance, 'toon.  So, what he struggles with, I don't necessarily have difficulty with.  But, too, some things he can trounce, I have a heck of a time with.  Basically, anything close quarters, with a fast physical attacker, is brutal to me.  Numbers will cause him troubles, while I can often, with even some distance, take out even groups... singularly, or possibly with area of effect combat systems.  

Still, having the best leveled runthrough, and some methods, foreknowledge, and such, really helps.  Will just have to see how things go. Like I mentioned, I doubt if I am 20% through the game.  And I've been working on it for days, a week, two now?  It's... been a while.

Oh, I did remember a birthday, and left a message.  Late, but on the right day.  Just a call.  But... it was something.  I don't need to be remembered.  But if I am, that is good too.  I don't mind.  As long as I call, or do, that is something.  I do my best, but don't always get it.  Nor do they.  And, that is okay.  But, this time, I remembered, left a message, and... that is enough.

Well, on to a salad, and gaming.  Oh, and... after a bit, I'll try to get to writing up the meeting minutes.  Get them right.  On the good side, I thought I had lost the meeting outline last time.  But found it.  I think that means I have both of the bullet points, about which I can more accurately outline the minutes.  That... makes life a bit easier.  Though the new and old one will be similar, there might be a few changes.  Just... better to have all the systems up to date, and properly scored and dated.

I'm not a superman, or even a good man, but I am a man and will do my best.  With family, groups, faith, friends, and all.  I'm not good at even living.  But I'll do my best, as I said.  I'll say a few prayers, on top of maintaining the prayerful connection I maintain with God at all times.  It doesn't need care, per se, I just need to... bolster, or focus more directly, to keep it clean and strong.  Well, and check the in-box!  :)  Yes, there is that.  I do ask God, from time to time, what I should do, or what He prefers, wants, etc.  And... sometimes I get a quick response.  Though, often, more often by far, something comes in... when... it comes in.  I need to remember to check.  Believe.  He does answer, if sometimes in time, even great time.  But only if you are willing to listen, be patient.  Amen.
