Feb 13, 2022:

Warmer than yesterday. This time saw three anhingas. Saw the Chink and 
the young Chink and one of the giants. No other regulars.

When I begin to over-exert myself or am generally tired, first I feel a 
pain on my left foot in the area around the base of my middle toe. It 
always begins from there. Since I change shoes it cannot be the effect 
of the shoes. I'm beginning to think there is perhaps a slight 
difference between my left and right foot themselves, resulting from 
years of playing soccer when I was growing up. My right foot is stronger 
than my left and might be slightly taller too.

At work in the warehouse variety of movements were so great that I 
didn't get to notice this about my left foot.

I may try to place an insert as extra layer inside my left shoe to raise 
the left side of me a millimeter or so to test this. I may also carry my 
CC on the other side to see if that's the culprit. I wonder whether 
that's the reason the regulars walk like that; i.e. to force the left 
and right feet function equally. Military march also might be for that 
same reason.

If nothing helps, then I may have to deliberately choose tracks that 
involve walking on very different grounds. Grass, gravel, dirt, cement 
slabs, etc to add variety for the movement.

Same bugs were out on the ground, also some lady bugs. In Iran lady bugs 
are often seen on bunches of grapes especially a certain round tiny kind 
that's very sweet. This isn't the season for grapes so I don't know what 
they are feeding on and doing at this time of the year. Of course I 
should note that lady birds don't feed on the grapes at all, but on much 
smaller slow moving insects that feed on grapes. So they indeed have a 
pest control effect on grapes crops in Iran and they are respected for 
that.

Here, in this cold night hot day season of Texas there must be some of 
these very tiny insects eating on something. I just checked the English 
equivalent of the Persian word for them ("shateh"), I'm talking about 
aphids. These lady bugs hunt and feed on aphids, not what aphids 
themselves eat. So there must be some form of sweet sap somewhere on the 
trees at this time of the year around here that attracts aphids to them, 
and in turn gets the lady bugs coming here for them.

In Iran people were extra careful not to accidentally eat lady bug with 
the grape. There was a belief that one could even die from it. I need to 
check to see if they have some sort of strong poison in them.
