Three things make a post!
1. Today's traffic jam podcast: David Tennant (10th Doctor) interviewing Jodie Whittaker (13th Doctor) - so much fun! I could listen to them all day. The accents! Just give me delight, although I listened to it again on the way home because I couldn't quite catch everything the first time through. Here's the YouTube link - no video, just the audio, and if you do podcasts just look up the latest episode of "David Tennant Does a Podcast With..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLu06tlLIyk
So far I've made it through most of Matt Smith (11th Doctor) and as I suspected, it just took me a few more episodes to like him very much! All the convoluting plots and River Song, very fun, too.
2. In other news, discovered last week at a vet visit that our educational groundhog, that I've been calling "she" for three years, is actually a boy! Field guides don't go into that much detail on sexing groundhogs XD
3. Had to start over on my "Couch to 5K" exercise project - took a few weeks off due to a bad cold, and then polar vortex temps, and even though I scaled it back to shorter run segments when I started back up again, my knees started hurting almost right off the bat. And I kept going thinking "maybe they'll loosen up" - they did not loosen up! Knees were very unhappy afterwards, so gave it all a rest and thought I'd try glucosamine supplements. Seems to be helping! It might be psychological, but I do feel very springy, and knees are mostly fine now - one has a bit of soreness once in awhile, but I've started over back at the very beginning with the running app, with the little 1 minute runs, and it doesn't seem to be making it worse. I do like my little running park - I get to hear water gurgling in the icy creek, and there's a kingfisher that rattles every time I go by, and there's fun sand patterns and raccoon tracks on the trail.
