30 June 2007

Breakfast: We ate breakfast at a little shop that sold these “breakfast samwhichs”. This amounted to sliced bisquit with scrambled egg and bacon. It was rather like a McDonald’s egg thingee but much better. I also had coffee.

Lunch: At a very, very nice Italian resteruant for spaghetti and Diet Pepsi.

Dinner: We went to a nice hamburger place where I had three (3) pork chops, some potatoes, a beer before dinner and soft drinks with dinner.

29 June 2007

Breakfast: At the hotel: Two eggs over medium, hash browns, “ham steaks” (actually, two slices of ham), two slices of whole wheat toast with grape jelly and coffee.

Lunch: Skipped as I was outside waiting for the bus to take me to the McCormack center – the convention centre – where we heard some fine speakers. We had to wait because there was some disorganized efforts at getting us to the Centre.

Snack (about 2 pm): A large brownie, a couple of pretzels and one or two cashews and a cup of really strong coffee.

Dinner: We went to a horribly expensive Prime Rib place for Prime Rib, mashed potatoes with gravy, a wonderful tossed salad and water. I had to ride the scooter up a lift and then up an aluminum ramp that laid out for me over the stairs. Needless to say, I was completely sober due to the fear of falling or breaking something!

28 June 2007

Breakfast: The Hotel’s version of hash browns: this was large chunks of beef, some chunks of potatoe, cheese and two poached eggs over the top. There were also two slices of whole wheat toast and coffee. I couldn’t finish it all…

Lunch: At “Buca di Deppo”: Spegetti with meat balls (very different and very good!) for about US$ 8 and Kathie had a “salad” that was
· A large sliced tomatoe
· Slices of fresh cheese
· Some veggies

Their desert was a US$9.99 piece of chocolate cake. This was the best piece of chocolate cake either of us have ever had! It was better than the original Roses in West Portland Oregon and even better than the cakes made by my Maternal Grandmother (Grammie) in Bay City Michigan (309 West Fisher).

Dinner: At “Seven Heaven on Rush”: This is a Lousiana place: I had “southern chicken” on garlic mashed potatoes with white gravy, real French Bread, a bow of delicious potatoe soup (thank God this isn’t a “test the blood” day!) and a rather decent micro-brew beer. Definitely, not a commercial beer!

27 June 2007

Snack (about 6 am) on the train: cup of coffee and a large cinnamon bunn!

Breakfast: Jimmy Dean sausage, egg and spuds bowl, thick French Toast (with syrup) and a can of D.P.

Lunch: Large “Angus” Burger (tasted more like sausage to me!), chips (small amount) and a can of D.P.

Dinner: At the hotel (Marriott Chicago downtown): Steak (very nice), baked potatoe (with “Sea Salt” rubbed on the outside), a bowl of French Onion soup and a MDG (they didn’t carry “Michelob Lager”). The price was unfucking believable; it was just over ^US$99 for both of us!

19 June 2007 or "Surgery Day"

Breakfast: Nothing as I had to have an empty stomach prior to surgery...

Lunch: Food wise, nothing. I was on an IV and I suppose that could constitute "lunch"...

Dinner: A bowl of chicken soup from Quixos, two saltine crackers and several pieces of Dark Chocolate and several glasses of water. After having not eaten anything in roughly 24 hours, I was surprisingly not hungry until I ate the soup. Then, I asked Kathie for a slice of sour dough bread with peanut butter. Also, I had a can of D.P. with the soup. All tasted good and reminded me of the adage:

"Hunger is the best appetizer!"

Well, I wasn't all that hungry...

Pre-Bed Snack: I think I'll be going to bed too early (i.e. about 9:35 pm).

16 June 2007

Breakfast: Out to a "new place" ("The Longhorn") for

1. a highly seasoned steak (slightly
   undercooked),
2. two eggs (slightly overcooked),
3. hash browns (quite
   adequate),
4. whole wheat toast (who can screw up toast???),
5. coffee (quite
   good) and
6. water.

The service needed improvement...

Lunch: A big chunk of freshly boiled roast beef and some slices of boiled potatoes and a can of D.P.

Snack: A piece of "C"'s choclate (a dark choclate truffle).

Dinner: Weight Watchers^® Smart Ones^® Meatloaf with gravy and garlic mashed potatoes and a can of D.P. I had a second can of D.P. because I forgot to bring my pills into the office kitchen and knew I could not possibly carry a glass of water
back to my desk whilst using crutches. Also, I didn't want to make the trek to "my" desk for pills, back to kitchen for water to wash said pills down and then back to "my" desk. It sounds silly but even a short distance on cruthes, when I'm not supposed to touch my left leg to the ground, is physically stressful...

Oh and I must not forget:

After reading the X-ray, the emergency room Doc said my ankle was broken and that I'd come very close to dislocating it. He said there was a little broken bone.

The next day, Dr. Hoffsteader had a radiologist read the x-ray and said specialist said I'd fractured three (3) bones. I see the orthapedist this coming Moanday...
