Alive, tired, a bit sore, yet absolutely still smiling

After dinner tonight I was really worried that I could not remember what I had for breakfast.   I walked (OK, stumbled, wandered, and waddled) all the way home.  Beginning to think I'm losing my mind.

Then I remembered I di not eat breakfast.  I had a quick errand to run with The Jonathon. We needed to get my physical results "certified."  RM 40 and it was done. 

They had a scale though.  I have dropped at least 5 kilos (203ish when I left, below198 now)*  of real weight since arrival.  It's hard to assess. I am drinking and sweating litres every day...how much is my body carrying?  The right amount is all that matters.  But, I have also put some muscle on my (already stunningly gorgeous) legs.

What matters more is I feel generally healthy.

Generally.  Uneven sidewalks, high curbs, slippery surfaces and thinly soled unpadded shoes have my legs and feet feeling a lil' beat up.   I have walked a lot this month.  I mean A LOT.



No matter what the metric of distance is:


So, it's to be expected.  Aleve did not help last night.  And, I slept very poorly.  Tonight I'll take a tramadol.  The Rx is from 2018 and has some pills mixed up from rib damage in 2010.  I carry it when I travel for occasions just like this.  For a guy who has been known to smoke an excessive amount of weed, I am extremely conscious and careful about Rx meds.  Especially pain killers.  Not sure why, but I'm grateful I am.

Some recent food fun for you:

Thosi (aka Dhosi) with egg

Rawa Thosi
I liked the egg one better.


A new view.
I think I spent at least 21 nights in the Shearton.
I was tired of it...




Damn, Malaysian chickens are tasty.
RM 5 for the best chicken Rice I have ever had.
Sure it looks simple...

Roti Birds Nest


Kuching...leashed

Kolo Mee
I ate this dish 3 meals in a row.
3 different vendors. 
(1 of them on somebody else's channel: https://www.vagabondjim.com/2024/09/a-running-thread-others-videos-about.html)

Ahhhh, this is the stuff!
Spicey, Sweet, Sour...
That's a typical portion size for my Kolo Mee

(for scale)


Yeah, I ran out of my heartburn Rx.  I wish I hadn't.  The Fametadine does not work quite as well.

Oh well, I'll be home soon.  Sigh.
