Been listening to a huge, two-volume, bio of M. K. Gandhi. His first published writings, when he was a law student in London, were on vegetarian food and vegetarianism as a philosophy.

Now that baseball season is over, I guess I pivot to NHL.
Nothing else is on.

I get that. It's the mixture of cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chili powder. Add ginger, garlic, onions, and vinegar, and your house smells like an Indian restaurant. I move the jackets in the living room into the bedroom.

Wut. You didn't do that on Wednesday so you could work today? What could you have been thinking? 
More seriously, extending my wishes to you for best possible results.

The sidewalks of my 'hood were packed with kids last night. At times I had to walk in the street to get around them.

My street's traffic is too dangerous for kids so we don't get any at all. Sometimes we go to the parade in town but the weather forecast last night was too ominous so we stayed home. I do miss the parade.

It's actually a medical mystery. She has relatively new onset of anemia. Her MCV is 73 which is low which usually means iron deficiency. But her iron studies are NORMAL. It still made sense to check her GI tract since that's a likely source, but does not compute. It will either normalize or declare itself. Even my hematology friend does not have a good answer at this time. If it had ALWAYS been like this that usually is something like thalassemia but her previous blood counts from a few years ago were normal.

Aero road bikes
And rims and such.
The rider is very un aero. Does Big Marketing expect us to believe that the bike's componentry can fix that? Do they think we were born yesterday? Clearly they do.
But do you?

We hope it just normalizes and remains a harmless mystery. Will declare itself over the next month or two.

I don't, but many, many people do believe it. Many people are saying that Aero Trumps weight. And I hope you see what I did there.
