Today Is ...

September 3, 2023 is National Welsh Rarebit Day. I like it, but I haven't eaten it in a long while. You can sometimes find it packaged by Stouffer's in the frozen-food section of supermarkets. While Welsh Rarebit is basically toasted bread topped with cheese, it has a reputation of causing bizarre and disturbing nightmares after being consumed. Some say this is the truth. Some say that it is just a myth. A basic explanation is that eating cheese promotes the REM sleep state, which is when dreaming occurs.

September 3, 2023: I have had beards on and off throughout my adult life. I currently have a beard because I haven't been able to stand for about two months without severe pain in my lower back due to an infection (an abscess) in a disk and also an infection in the surrounding bone. I had spinal surgery yesterday to remove (clean out) the infection in a disk in my lower back. A physical therapist will soon assist me with walking. I hope that I will be able to shave at home soon.
