Yesterday was all about Healthy Lifestyle Choices and Positive Mental Attitudes, which for me are comet-like rarities.

It probably helped that it was the first bona fide warm day of spring, and that Arlene and Emily cajoled me into going on a run with them. I’m generally not a person who runs in groups, preferring the solitary iPod fueled workout, but my running companions were incredibly good motivators, and it did help the time pass. Our route was fairly scenic and we made far too many poop jokes by any standard, but especially for three people in their thirties.

I only had to stop and walk about thirty-seven times. I’m going to be sore as hell in a few hours. Also, my foot feels like it’s broken. But it was a great way to begin my outdoor running season.

(I may want to modify my route so it doesn’t take me past The Best Bar In America.)

Also last night I gave my apartment a thorough cleaning, so it smells all fresh and lemony and spring-timey. Now I want to entertain guests. Oh wait, I am.
