A Day Off

By -
Rok and I normally work on Saturdays at 10 am which is early for us, but today we got the day off. We got the day off because our work legally has to pay us eight extra hours for the 24th of July. And if you are in a bearably state to live in, the 24th is Pioneer Day in Utah and it is a state holiday. So our work emailed out to us that we have to take 8 hours of our schedule so they don't have to pay us extra money. So Rok and I have today off which was cool even though we don't get extra pay but hey it's better to take the time off on a day we don't want to work rather than have hours randomly assigned off for us.

We mainly played video games all day. But around 1ish our friend Elias came over and we hung out for a while, we talked a lot and then went to the park across our house while Rok pushed me in a wheel chair. After that we came back to our house for a little longer than took Elias home. Then Rok and i played more video games. We were going to go swimming but the pool key was in our roommates car in Orem. So now we are playing Wii Fit in an effort to reduce our belly chub, we will see how it goes.

Today I weighed: 217 lbs

Yesterday I ate:
>A small bowl of Rice Krispies
>two Eggo Cinnamon toast waffles
>A watermelon breeze smoothie
>a bag of Frito's
>About half a serving of mac and cheese

Yesterday I drank: 93 oz of water

I am tired so that's all for today my dudes.

Stay cool

Cooking shows

By -
I really like watching cooking shows. I'm not sure why, I don't plan on ever making the food they do, but there is something about watching skilled chefs make beautifully delicious looking food. Rok also enjoys these show so that works out really well for us. More recently we have started to watch more cooking channels on YouTube. We now watch Binging with Babish and Bon Appetit. I used to watch Hellthy JunkFood, but recently their content hasn't appealed to me as much as it used to. We also watch the Great British Bake Off on Netflix, but unfortunately Netflix doesn't offer many other cooking show options that I can find. I have been curious to look into Chef's table but we haven't gotten there yet. Today I weighed: 213 lbs Yesterday I ate: > A 22 oz Aloha Pineapple smoothie from Jamba Juice > ~1 1/2 cup of buttery noodles > A yogurt cup > Two peanut butter and honey sandwiches > A slice of white bread Yesterday I drank: 84 oz of water...

Tiny Cat Kidneys

By -
Our cat Monty has been getting over a kidney infection. As such, I had the privilege to learn how difficult it can be to make a cat swallow medication. We also had to learn to administer a subcutaneous fluid drip every few days to make sure he stays properly hydrated. Fortunately, he's been recovering well, drinking his water and eating his expensive, new medicated food. We took him into the vet today to make sure he's totally back to normal, but now we have to wait for a urine test to come back. At least we got his vaccinations and stuff renewed, so that's good. This morning, I weighed 195.8 Today I ate ~Three small chocolate covered muffin tops ~A pull apart twizzler ~Half a bowl of cheesy pasta from Noodles ~A cat mug of ice cream ~An Amy's pesto tortellini bowl ~Two slices of cheese pizza On an unrelated note, I've been cleaning up our kitchen and I'm hoping to keep it that way this time. I suspect a tidy kitchen will make cooking less of a cho...

On Nintendo

By -
This entry doesn't really fit with the others I've made so far, but today being their E3 presentation day, it seemed as good a time as any to offer a couple of stories and some thoughts on Nintendo. I believe I was six years old when Mario Kart 64 was released. Like any kid at the time, I wanted it quite a bit, and on Christmas, I was elated to find a copy of Mario Kart placed under the tree by my grandma. Unfortunately, as my grandma was a rather stereotypical grandma, she had mistakenly purchased a copy of Super Mario Kart for the SNES, a console I did not own. This isn't to say I blame my grandma; she was just trying to give me a gift I would like for Christmas. Seeing my disappointment, she decided to call Nintendo customer service and explain the situation. They were extremely helpful and understanding and they agreed to take my copy of Super Mario Kart and mail me a copy of Mario Kart 64 in exchange, along with a letter apologizing for the mix-up (which is a bit odd...
