Recently, I was saying that gone are the days when I could go back to sleep after being woken up, and then I'd be okay once I finally got up, even if it meant I had to sleep a little longer. Gone are also the days of catching up in just one night. I slept better last night, and yes, I definitely do have more energy today than I did yesterday, but I'm still kind of fatigued.

I think I have to cut back on the Brazil nuts. Instead of having them every day, I think a couple a week would be better. One of the side effects of selenium listed is a metallic taste in your mouth, and I've noticed that recently. They can also cause fatigue.

My neck has been better, so I am laying low on the extra exercise beyond VZ (45 miles to go). Then I'll eventually ramp up the aerobics again and see if the feeling comes back. I just want to try to narrow down exactly what it is. If it is somehow connected to an increase in physical activity, then I'll resort to more walking where I'm not raising my arms constantly. And besides, the controllers kind of act like little weights.

Stupid Walmart made this new rule that they have to give you plastic bags when they deliver your food. That's not what I have a problem with. It's the one-item-per-bag thing that gets old because it’s wasteful and fills up our trash quickly. The delivery guy did say, though, that if you get too many, give them to him the next time he delivers, and he'll take them to recycle them.

Even though I don't need toothpaste now, when I saw the Lucky Charms toothpaste for kids, I couldn't resist, LOL. It's pretty cool, and it does taste like Lucky Charms.

Had a couple of weird dreams. Tom was at some kind of rally where it was the usual case of red against blue. Tom said there were a few reds that tried to bully him into changing his mind, and I said it was a good thing I wasn't there. Knowing my temper, he agreed. But then a split second later, I was there. There was a huge wall of doors between red and blue. A red guy started to push open a door, and I shoved it back, catching his head in the door. Only his face was poking through. So with my left hand and my hip thrown into the door—so I could use some of my body weight—I kept the guy trapped in the door while I took my right hand and punched him over and over again.

Anyway, I'm excited for my new phone tomorrow. Might not be able to make calls or send texts if we have to call someone to get it activated, since tomorrow is Sunday, but I should still be able to transfer all my apps over there and use it for playing around with and getting to know it.
