The road to health is still bumpy

Posted on March 12, 2019March 20, 2019 By admin

I’m in Barcelona for work. Work-wise, it’s been going very well, with many details sorted out and progress visibly happening. We’re in a really nice meeting room at the University of Barcelona and the mood is generally positive.


Food wise, I found that lunch is generally the easiest meal of the day. Monday I had some grilled iberico pork and potatoes and today I had swordfish and potatoes. Both went down very well. Dinner tends to be more problematic. On Sunday, I was only able to eat about a third of my ramen before feeling over-full. Last night, I had yakitori and rice, and that was ok-ish but one small (but really appealing) tuna maki put me solidly into blockage territory and I had to get back to the hotel toot-suite to be sick. Felt better afterwards, but still not ideal.

I still think the trip was a success, food-wise, because it does show me that I can function (mostly) OK when I’m not home, but I still need to be careful.

Quote of the day

Sam Vimes could parallel process. Most husbands can. They learn to follow their own line of thought while at the same time listening to what their wives say. And the listening is important, because at any time they could be challenged and must be ready to quote the last sentence in full. A vital additional skill is being able to scan the dialogue for telltale phrases such as "and they can deliver it tomorrow" or "so I've invited them for dinner?" or "they can do it in blue, really quite cheaply."
--(Terry Pratchett, The Fifth Elephant)
