About Me

i'm currently transitioning from night-owl to morning person. it's going so-so. for reasons that i'm still befuddled about, i can now run for a reasonably extended period of time and not get tired- this just happenstanced upon me recently, and i'm more thrilled than i can put into words (hard work pays off). i use public transportation which always leaves me with a smile on my face and a skip in my step. why you ask? because people are hilarious. this isn't meant to be mean - simply factual. i'm fighting the pre-winter blahs with suprising success. this is due to above mentioned running goal attainment and the tanning booth (i am far too tan for October but i just can't stop). the rubber surrounding my i-pod headphones are breaking and it's irritating my ears, which is a shame because due to my public transporation tendencies, i listen to it for an average of 2.5 hours per day.

I deviated from my normal bus route (the 17-W) this morning in attempts to stay out the rain and wind.  I hopped on the 6-V headed for downtown and realized a moment too late that I had boarded t...
