Not much to write about today. I was sick all day with nausea (and other even less pleasant things), so I stayed in bed all day. I managed to eat some Ritz crackers, half a croissant and a bowl of cereal throughout the day, but that was all. I have a theory that the meat last night did me in. Not that it was ill-cooked, but I’m now on an almost vegetarian diet (purely by circumstance), and I think the steak and several ribs that I ate were a bit much for my digestive system. One of the things about Italian food is that there’s very little meat involved, and even less of that is rough or red meat. In any given day I’ll have a slice of bologna or a couple slices of salami at lunch, and maybe some chicken (about one breast worth) at dinner. We’ve only gotten chicken twice so far, and once we had fish fillets. Any other meat is some ground meat in the sauce, so it’s not surprising that this happened, really. Anyway, I’m going back to sleep.
A thick, juicy steak with all the trimmings will have your name on it when you come home! Oh yeah, and green chili too! (We have to re-Americanize your insides.)
