No excuse!
As my luck would have it, the first week that would actually count for running in 2008 is horribly stormy and rainy. Well, today it was off and on, so one really couldn’t tell. Instead of going to the gym as I had hoped to, I went to the mall. HAH! I didn’t only make frivolous purchases of NAP pillows and clothing [only one shirt!]. Finally got the humidifier that I need. No more nosebleeds!
The plan is to run tomorrow. I know it will rain, so I will just have to suck it up and go to the gym. Then, off to an all-I-can-eat brunch with champagne + orange juice [so going to make mimosas!] and oysters too! It will, unfortunately, be in San Jose and isn’t the cheapest brunch, but I will have a ride and will make the most of the good company and good food.
I’ve started reading Murakami‘s Dance Dance Dance. It doesn’t suck me in as some other books have, but there is still something about his writing [or the translation of his writing]. I’m putting sticky tabs on pages like I have done with other books. The lines are somewhat ordinary, but something about them compels me to want to remember or take note. I’ll have to reread those pages later and take notes. The book is borrowed, so I can’t just keep my sticky tabs in there.
