Cold Summer and Diving Dogs

Last night it was a bit chilly and it has been raining for a few days, so instead of doing 880s in Baxter Woods as we had on the schedule we went to Bradley Street to run. Bradley street is similar to Baxter Woods in an opposite sort of way (if that makes sense.) In...

Morning Glory Drugs

Yesterday I left a note about the women’s 5k in Brunswick that a number of my teammates ran. After the race, they had the awards ceremony. They had some really big trophies for the overall winners and for the master’s winners and the like, and most of the...

Catching Up and On the Move

I am still trying to catch up on everything, especially my sleep. I seem to have been getting enough every day since my 27 hour work day, but I am still fair on tired and got the aching back thing going. We will see if running tonight will help me sleep and then feel...

Exhaustion Take 2

I thought that I was tired before…I am going on 20 hours here at work, with a fairly fast 5 mile run about 3 hours in. Not only that, but I did not bring enough food with me to work for a normal day let alone my still being here this morning. Oh well, hence...

Ghoulash

Everybody has a favorite food. Some people like Pizza. Some people like Chocolate. Some people like peanut butter cookies. Some people like french bread. My favorite food is probably ghoulash. My mother used to make it for me as a kid, and it was one of the first...

Cookies

Yet another obligation that will delay my working on this website… About a year ago I designed a website for a local woman who sells cookies. She’s been rather fed up with the hosting that she had (which I unfortunately had also been using at the time) and...

Exhaustion Sets In

Friday night I was tired. Bone tired. I went out on a dinner and theater date, and had trouble keeping my eyes open. (I do not recommend the Blue Spoon; it was not as cheap as my friend told me it was, nor was it as good. In fact, the food was rather lackluster....

A hole in the leg

Everybody has some sort of scar at some point in their life. Sometimes the scars fade with time, and sometimes the scars are there for the rest of your life. I have a vrey faint scar on my forehead where I hit my head as a child, and one between my left bicep and...
