Shallow sleep again. Constant mental flotsam and jetsam, from sexual fantasies to invidious snatches of songs heard throughout the day. For dinner I warmed up the very sharp remains of the curry I made on Friday with a little quinoa. I have read before that food that has been left out for a while becomes perfuse with yeast. Now this was left in the car over the weekend and then out yesterday on a sunny day. This is presumeably what comes of just warming something like that up. The curry was made with a coconut milk and tomato base, and I should try to avoid tomato on my exclusion diet, but I have never noticed a reaction before. (Whether I would have noticed such a reaction when not looking for one is a moot point, given as for a long time only a year or so ago I didn’t even write down cheese in my food diaries since I unconsciously regarded it as a neutral filler to keep hunger at bay!)

 I did take a couple of capryllic acid tablets last night. Something I will probably be wary of revealing on my food diary, if I get to fill it in at all, since this would seem to write me off as someone trying to perform his own nutritional therapy rather than awaiting expert help.

 The only other possible factor is hunger. I do remember going to bed with the subjective feeling of hunger. The curry was a thin veggie affair after all.

Anyway, the insomnia, at least is something I have avoided for the majority of the time I have been living here. M____ has observed over and over that I sleep like a log.

Most of the curry was left in the pressure cooker from Friday. I was cursing and swearing to open it and find it mouldy. Such a waste of time and food.
