I still have a lot of stuff to process from this past two weeks. Dear Love of Comrades (DLOC) was simply amazing, and precisely what I was needing. It revealed a lot of things to me which I needed to see and experience to help clarify where I am in my life and where I might want to go. But its going to be difficult to reconcile those with my daily ( Read more... )

Another beautiful morning for a run. A light mist, low 50s, quite nice. Stretched to 5 miles this morning, and was doing well save for a hot spot caused by the new orthoses. Forgot to put body glide on my arches this morning, and it showed at the end. Not, I suspect, a mistake I'll often make again ( Read more... )

Haven't made time to write because I'm either getting home & being a total veg because I'm wiped out from the work day or I'm going out to see friends or maybe even a date or two. Work continues to roll along at a crazy pace. I've given myself a big assignment that I've not been able to start yet because of other fires that keep popping up. It's ( Read more... )

I find it amusing that I've avoided holiday music all year (since I don't really shop in malls or big retails stores), but couldn't escape it tonight while eating at a local Chinese restaurant ( Read more... )

Hmmm, been a bit since I updated.

Saw the podiatrist yesterday about the plantar fasciitis coming back. I had run last week and spent the rest of the day limping around in pretty severe heel pain. It’s gone down since then, but is still there in a low capacity. He cleared me to cycle and swim until my heart’s content, but no running for the next ( Read more... )

Running a little slow this morning. Last night was one of those “my brain will not shut off” kind of nights, with melatonin and exhaustion finally kicking in around 3-something. It wasn’t all a bad thing - the brain was going over some conversations I’ve had over the course of the weekend, and thinking a lot on what it is I want to be doing with ( Read more... )

I'm fighting off a head cold at the moment. Stayed over at MG's place on Saturday and he had a fan going to keep the air circulating, and I temporarily forgot that fan blowing across Moose's face = dry nose = head cold susceptibility. You'd think with the AC drama over the summer I'd remember that, but no. My own fault, but still annoying. Lotsa ( Read more... )

I want to write, but I'm drawing a blank ( Read more... )

Much goings on since the last post, and yet it feels like I don't have a ton to report, either ( Read more... )

Better run this morning than Monday. Heart rate stayed more in line with the norm (though that's too high, thank you sudafed, by which I mean thank you cats for causing such allergies that I need to take sudafed all the time now), and it felt better than Monday's inaugural run ( Read more... )
