Then I went to Gelson's, which was insanely crowded, and got the chicken for the faux chicken stroganoff. I think I'm all set now for the intimate gathering tomorrow at four.

Have to decide what today's food will be but I think it will be a couple of hours before this stuff completely wears off.

Back from the dentist - newly crowned - it's good to have a crown. And for the first time in five YEARS I'll be able to chew on both sides of the mouth.


First time in five years!  That's wonderful!

For now, I'll get the new book file open and ready to go for the morning, along with the notes.

I think for food I'll do something on the soft side for my first meal with the new crown - maybe some pasta or something like that.

I found some pita bread that is lower in carbs than the low-carb bread -- and much less expensive. So I'm looking forward to ham chunks and cheese slices and pita crackers tonight.

He only gave me half a dose so it shouldn't be too too long.

That's good but I am surprised you needed even that much.

Enjoy your new low-carb pita bread.

Rodzinski, I quoted your post in the reader comments in the Times.  Is it OK for me to try to follow up with a post attributing the quote to you by name?  (Or should I just let it be without your name?)


In the reader comments under today's Metropolitan Diary column
--------
Below is a statement I read on a chat board on the net. (It made me laugh at first, but then I thought: Who's to say where comedy ends and truth begins?)

"Tonight I’ll say 'Happy New Year' when I really mean, 'In 20 days we fall off into a cliff of despair. Please let the human suffering be minimal.' "

Anonymous is fine. Don’t want anyone tracking me down.
