Five Things I Need to Find

1. My fourth memory card for my Canon. I think it fell out of the hood zipper pocket when I forgot to zip it back up. Could be in my car, could be in my room. It's probably in the car.

2. The cable that connects my Canon to my computer. I needed this badly the other night and it was no place to be found. And that totally irritated me. Anyway, I have no clue where this would be. The only place I've ever even used it is at my home computer and it's not there. I'm guessing for some reason I've shoved it in some bag thinking it was something else. . . good luck to me finding it.

3. EDIT: FOUND IT! A letter to me. I believe this letter is in the back pocket of my car. It's in an envelope (or with an envelope) that says "Good Days" on it. I distinctly recall reading this letter in sections while I drove. Then I believe I had to clean off my passenger seat to let someone ride there. That's how it ended up in a different place than the other two letters in that series.

4. A ticket to the October 5th Against Me! concert at Common Grounds. I've put my feelers out as best I can about this show. All I can do now is hope for the best and then show up to Common Grounds on Sunday night anyway. I already wrote one blog about this, I'm not going to take too much time to write more.

5. The money to get a tune-up for my car. It needs one. I've noticed a difference in the way it sounds, idles, accelerates, and clutches. I know it needs the tune-up, but it's a matter of doing it and not being flat broke.

Someone busier than you is running right now.

I have a confession to make to my spark buddy, Melissa: I did not go for a run last night. I'm terrible, I know. Here's what else I know: 1. I have never made such great progress in getting into shape as I did when I was jogging regularly. 2. My knee starts to stay in a constant state of noticeable discomfort after I've jogged for over a week. 3. I miss the liberating feeling of running. 4. I miss the empowerment of cross-training (biking, swimming, running) So I've been perusing the intarwebz for motivational media this morning. And while I hate Nike for their shoddy work ethic, jacked up prices, and apparently tiny clothes, I love them for their motivational material. I just have yet to find any media more inspiring to me than the following advertisements. And ... "I am addicted. I've collected footsteps before dawn. Seen places I never knew existed. Run to the moon and back. Been a rabbit for the neighborhood dogs. Obeyed the voice in my head. Let music carr...

Go Relax! (And I have a question for my readers.)

Okay ... maybe I've been under a bit of stress lately. I'll admit, I have a tendency to carry a packed schedule. And for the most part, I can do this quite well. But there are times -- and I think they come in waves -- that I need to gtfo and decompress. This is why you suddenly find out I went to the beach, or was MIA for an entire weekend. It happens. It's been happening for my entire adult life. Those who know me, either embrace it, or get over the fact that I'm not changing. But I have to confess, even for me, the schedule lately has been an overwhelming one. At the end of May I was looking at my calendar and realized from that day through the middle of July, there isn't a single vacant weekend. I wish I were kidding. As much as I love being busy and having parties, volunteering, getting together with friends for coffee, and all of that fun stuff, if I don't get to take a long, retardedly hot shower every few nights and turn my phone off from time to time, ...
