I must have been feeling chipper this morning (not the Steve Buscemi kind of chipper.)  I noticed in my first mile that I was running a bit faster than I have been the last few times I've gone out to run.  So I picked it up in the second mile.  I heard this woman chewing out her husband from the other side of the road.  I'm glad I don't put up with that kind of nonsense from my old lady.

It's cool.  I don't think my wife reads my blog anymore.

Lighten up girl. You're alive, you're up early, and it's a beautiful day.

Burt - "old lady!" I've met your wife, you should have written "better half."

Here Julie. Have some lemon juice to pour into that cut you just gave me. It didn't sting enough.
