It's Finaly Friday

Activity: Running
Time: 34 min
Distance:3.9 miles

I just started out running to run. I wanted to get some hills in so started out the 1.5 out that gives me a 3 mile hill run and then instead of turning around, I turned right. Since running, and then biking I have learned most of the streets in a 5 mile radius of our house. It's a nice feeling! I did not get lost although would have 2 months ago on this same journey.

I had no idea how fast I was going because I did not know mile markers past 1.5, but am satisified with my sub 9 minute miles for almost 4 miles. My goal in the next 2 weeks is to get up to 4.5 sub 9 minute miles, so that I can finish the Bix in under an hour. Pipe dream? Most likely but it's good to have a goal. I started out intending to swim tonight but got all the way to the pool (2 miles away, I know hardly can complain) and forgot my pass. I was only swimming because it was supposed to rain but when I got home to get my pass, the big dark cloud seemed to have passed along with the 95 degree temps so I decided to run instead. Although considerabl cooler at 81 degrees, the humidity is killer. I was dretchen in sweat and didn't even realize it.

I'm single this weekend as Evan is in the middle of no where listening to his favorite bands and catching up with Mike and Emily (Bales and Jesse are there too but he's not really catching up with them because we seem them once a week). On the job front, I had a phone interveiw on Wednesday that went very very well. I have a second interveiw for a position higher than that I interviewed for, here in St. Louis hopefully on the 20th. The company is based out of Indianapolis. Also, the positions RPS wanted me to interview for at Moneta have since been filled...bummer! Laura agreed to let me stay till mid July becuase "something else will open up there soon, I'm sure". It buys me more time, but I hope to be out of there before then. Being bored at a place you spend 8 hours of your day, 40 hours a week is miserable. I was enjoying it at first but after a day, I'm over it.

I'm off to hit the showers, clean and go to bed. I got literaly 3 hours of sleep last night. The 2 dogs were not happy. I think Tulley has speration anxiety and will not sleep for more than 10 minutes at a time. Not to mention (no exageration here) he was up at 11:30 (we went to bed at 11), 2:30, 4, 5, 6 and up for good at 6:45. I couldn't listen to him bark anymore so I took him outside at 2 and at 5 and 6. I didn't want him waking up the neighbors. I feel so bad for him, I wish he were happy here, but I have no idea what to do! Hopefully tonight goes better.
