Just noticed this, I assume you were joking. I remember reading about a guy who started a fruitarian retreat, they only ate fruit after it fell from the plant to avoid doing "violence" to the plants. One day a reporter caught him at the local burger king eating a whopper and fries, after publishing the pictures his venture kind of fell apart.

How goes the unemployment battle?

Yeah I there was one lady who claimed she didn't need to eat or drink because she got energy from the sun, but was caught sneaking off to a hotel to eat some chicken and/or Twinkies. I'm still waiting to hear back from the unemployment office.

I wish I could have walked more, I'm kind of getting worried that we're going to be stuck inside for the next year. I hope things get back to normal soon.
 
Hey Matt, do you keep track of your walking pace and/or distance? I recently got a free app for my phone that does it and I find it interesting. A bit of a motivation to go farther and faster.

I kind of think that thing won't get worse, so far as restrictions go. If you can walk now you probably will be able to continue to. Just my guess.

Not really, just time. I might download the app, though it may be hard to tell because sometimes Misty will stop to sniff/do her business or she'll catch a scent and pull me all over. At least we can go out walking, I can't wait until everything opens back up again.
 
I am new to the app and finding it interesting. Even with the stops you can still get your total distance. Mine also plots pace as a function of time, you can see the stops and pauses and still see your pace when walking. In 4 hours you have to walk a long ways.

Yeah, with me it's not as much distance as laps. We'll circle my apartment complex a few times then walk to the neighborhood next door for a while.

Well, good that your Easter was okay - but Matt... the visits to Wawa's and Macdonald's are steering you off into weight gain territory.
I've said it, Rob's said it, you know it. Seriously, can't you find a place to buy fresh fruit and veg, and stock up, and just not go there for ready-made food?
I've lived in a food desert, and will be again soon, and I know how really hard it can be, but... the possible future (weight gain, health impact, etc) is pretty grim. Let's try to avoid it?
