Carb Loading

It's 2022.03.01 on the lunar calendar today.

What have you been eating lately? I've been loading up on carbohydrates. For what, I'm not sure ... am I training for something? I'm not looking forward to putting on real clothes on Wednesday. But I am very much looking forward to performing for and meeting students and staff at Cal State Long Beach.

They were so sweet in inviting me to perform for their early Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month Celebration. An added bonus is that Long Beach has been praised as the "

Soft, Doughy Center Of LA's Bread Renaissance

." I have not been able to find a great bagel in LA though and miss my NYC egg bagel.

I shoved an egg bagel down my throat ...

to keep me from screaming, keep me occupied. I stabbed a moist piece of chocolate cake for no one reports a cake murder, no one cares. 

It's an oldie but a goodie—a chromatic song I wrote a lifetime ago titled "Heartburn." I doodled food and my sister animated them. Do you know what it's like to black out from a loaf of bread? If not, watch the above video. 

Slinging scones

Do you recall reading "Animalia"? This selfie I call Sanguine Singers in Silk Scarves Soaking in the Sun. I got a scone (scrumptious) after Christie and I had burritos (tasty & fancy)—drenched in mole and cashew cream and looking like giant bon bons—followed by banana-bread vegan ice cream (do not buy). I'm planning on more scones this summer plus fish and chips, which brings me to ...

Large fries should be large.

At Carl's Jr. to get the collector's Guild Wars 2 cup, we switched out the regular fries for the crisscut and were shocked to learn that the large combo costs ... guess how much ... sixteen whole dollars!! ? For a soft drink, five chicken strips, and a thing of crisscut fries that looked like a medium at best. So then I ordered more fries at McDonald's, tacking on a fish sandwich for myself. Anyway, I got the cup and am giving you links to Guild Wars 2 remixes (here and there) and a metal cover of my end credits song, "A World Without You."
