I finally had a run this morning that didn't feel too miserable.  I was out running by 5:30am.  The sun was just barely coming up when I finished.  I braved to run along the streets.  I saw two other runners.  One lady was wearing a Ragnar shirt.  I told her I liked her shirt.  Other than that, it was kind of boring.  So let me tell you some more boring things about my run on Saturday.  As I was running down hill one of the cyclists gave me a hoo-ah!  Thank you for thinking I was a marine.  Also, I saw some sort of animal scat all over the place.  I did not know from what kind of animal it was.  I wish I was better versed in the science of animal scat.  You'd think I would be.  I thought about taking a picture and posting it on the blog to see if anyone else knew what type of animal it came from, but then I thought, "even I'm not THAT gross.  Quiet Pirate, maybe.  But not me."

I didn't want to get up this morning, but I forced myself.  My side work is getting out of control busy.  But I managed to sweet talk some clients into pushing their deadlines back a few days. 

So, you know those window stickers of Calvin peeing on stuff?  Usually it's Obama, or Ford, or Oprah.  But today I saw one of Lowe's.  You know, the home improvement store?  Who hates Lowe's that much?  Probably a Home Depot associate looking to become a manager.

I took Ginger again.  She was so excited she could hardly contain herself.  Meow.  When I got to Harmony Park I let go of the leash and let her run wherever she wanted.  For the most part she stayed with me.  She gets nervous running across streets.  My legs weren't feeling all that peppy yesterday, but today they feel great.  It's gonna be a great day.  Happy birthday Bonnie and Lily.
