So. I'm a half-assed jogger. That means I have a routine in mind that I try to stick to, but things like excessive heat/sleeping in/hangovers sometimes interfere. It also means I don't own proper jogging clothes, which in this area of town you'd swear was a real crime.
Anyway, I like to go down to Jericho beach because it's a bit cooler and it's pretty to look at. There's some little nature trail sorta things down there too so you can see bunnies and birds and shit. Today however, my usual route was blocked off by many porta-potties and tents. "WTF?" says I to myself, further convincing passer-by that I'm a crazed lunatic.
Ohhhhhhhhh, right. The Folk Fest is on this weekend. Three days of patchouli fog rolling in from Jericho.
It's very overcast today over the city - we had a windstorm yesterday, apparently - but of course out towards the ocean it's clear. So it was good running weather since it wasn't hot. Also, due to the lack of sun, there were less people out and about. There wasn't even anyone on the playground at one of the neighbouring parks so I got to go on the swings and watch an eagle for a while. You can't just crash the playground when there's kids there already. For one thing you're using up stuff designed to entertain them, and for another you could look some creepy pedo.
So, yay for getting up before noon.
