... You shall find me a grave man.

ORN: 'Twas a lovely, sunny 50° when I ran my easy 10K today in 1:01'22". The run started out wobbly as I was still uncomfortable from Saturday's long run. But as I warmed up, the aches and pains settled out. The second half of the workout was markedly less sucky that the first. I'm happy tomorrow is a rest day. I'm tired.

I don't share too much about my personal life here, and that's by design. You read this because you are interested in my running, not about the thoughts I have while standing in line at the library. But in the interest of adding a little variety into this text stream, I give you these few tidbits from my daily life.

1. I've been waking up lately with a They Might Be Giants song stuck in my head. Never the same song, either. The day it was "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)" was a good day. "Minimum Wage," not so much.
   
2. Digging a shallow grave at 21:30 by flashlight in the back yard is easier when it has been raining for a couple days. Sam the Hamster: RIP. I hope the puppy doesn't dig you up.
3. Cable modem boxes make excellent coffins for small, dead, domesticated rodents.
