Day 79:
A typical meal for me is carrots, some pretty pathetic bread, and a fish. In the morning I probably just gnaw on some stale bread. I keep some carrots on me to snack on throughout the day, and at night, it’s the whole carrot-bread-fish combination.
Sometimes it’s a carrot and fish sandwich.
No one would’ve convinced me that was a meal back before I landed here.
The biggest problem with this diet is that it is very heavy on fish, and fish are not easy to catch. So the last couple of evenings before the sun goes down (when it’s not so hot and the fish bite better) I’ve been fishing, but it hasn’t be overly successful.
I think soon I’m going to have to kill some of my duckens and cook them.
It’s one thing to kill something like a zombie that’s trying to kill me. It’s another to try to kill something that I’ve cared for. It’s hard. I don’t want to do it. But I tried eating no direct protein here (it’s not like soy power shakes are a thing) and I got really weak really fast. I need fat and protein and if I run out of fish I’m not going to have a choice.
Let’s keep hoping the fish come in.
