Update of sorts

The things I'm doing nowadays...not much, but hey.

Smuggler's Cove – Tiki drinks ho! Using the book (which I apparently got back in 2016 thanks to my ex), I've created a Zombie (see above), which is yummy and strong. Tonight comes a Smuggler's Cove-reimagined Mai Tai, unlike the one I used to make. This one is much more natural, at the very least. No artificial colors and probably no artificial flavors either. And not nearly as strong. I'm hoping it's more delicious. Smelling the curaçao and rum I've purchased for it, I expect it will be. More drinks will be coming this summer. I'm expecting this will be a tiki summer to remember...one that will eclipse the original back in 2004.

Tiki/exotica music – Take a listen to this. Lovely.

Real estate – I look at places on Redfin and Realtor all the time. I've mentioned San Luis Obispo and Palm Springs. Glanced at Las Vegas recently, which is not a desirable location, but looks like there are great properties there to be had. I just like seeing what's available.

Work - Work? What's that? It'll return at some point, right? When I get antsy?

Weight – It's up a bit. Enough that Apple notified me about it. I'm also keeping my handy dandy chart on it, so I know it's up. Almost 10 pounds since the beginning of the year, to be exact. I guess since my liver numbers were so good, I've felt comfortable pushing things a bit. Haven't been doing intermittent fasting for a while (but also haven't been eating a dozen donuts a day either), so that would probably explain a fair bit. Alcohol also has something to do with it. Duh. At any rate, I may be back on the gain train...if a bit more carefully this time.

Julee Cruise – I tried to listen to her that one day. Didn't quite work. She wasn't calming enough. That should tell you something.
