I'll be driving up to Pennsic tomorrow morning for a couple days. I sure hope I didn't forget anything; driving back home from work and then back North again would add at least 45 minutes to my travel time. We'll see if I actually feel up for driving 1.5 - 2 hours after I get off shift in the morning. I've got a 5-Hour Energy grenade on my desk if all else fails. Fire in the hole!
I ran in the rain this morning because weather.com swore up and down that it would be thundering this PM. Damnable liars. It actually stopped raining in the late afternoon. I managed to get 1.5 miles today before I had to stop running. OK, I stopped a couple times, but never for more than a second or two. I ran three miles total and only had to walk some of the laps in the third mile. Let's hope vacation doesn't totally hose my progress, such as it is.
I need to update my resume because I haven't done it in a few years and my sis-in-law says I have to. I don't even want to look at the thing. I'm sure it'll depress me. I really just need to latch onto a specialty field and a couple sub-specialties and then cling to them like a tick until I'm a damned expert. As it is, I'm a jack-of-all-trades-and-master-of-none.
It's a good thing I'm leaving town for a few days. It seems that one of the neighborhood stray cats has adopted us. G made the mistake of feeding it and I made the mistake of showing it some affection, so now it wants to belong to us. Oy. It doesn't help that I feel concerned for it because I saw what appeared to be a bite wound from another cat on it's chest this evening.
I don't need another pet.

I don't need another vet bill generator.
I don't I don't I don't I just don't.
