I got distracted by a whining dog that apparently needed me to throw a tennis ball about 30 times. And I forgot to say to Sandy, yes, lunch then something outside. I think Umstead sounds like an awesome idea. When the thought of running 100 miles first crossed my mind several years ago, Umstead was at the top of my list. So I would love to check it out.

OK...  Head out of my ass update.

My GF still doesn't know if she can go or not.  But, talking to a very wise woman...  I realize most of my annoyance is actually sadness.  Not at the possibility of her not coming, but the slow loss of our close friendship.  She and I have been growing apart for over a year now and it has made me quite sad.  I have just really been looking forward to re-kindling a bit of what we had over the weekend.  I decided now or never...  I messaged my GF expressing my sadness over our relationship.  We had a nice text-chat about it.  Very positive and nice.  We are going to actually CALL each other once she knows her plans and try to be a little more interactive with each other.

SO, I still feel like a horrid selfish bitch over it, but I'm hopeful we can improving what we have.  Probably will never be what it was, but as the wise woman said, our life and priorities change over time.  I just need to be accepting of that.

So windy out. Really felt like fall. I could do without it getting dark before 6:30. 6 miles. I kept them easy because I had tweaked my back yesterday when I sneezed while leaning over drying my hair.

Lizzie, so excited for you!

Seloc, that house is co cute and looks really well maintained.

KatS, glad you were able to text with your friend.
