| | I didn't run yesterday and I regret it. I saw some of my locals post on Facebook that they got sprinkled on and saw rainbows. Oh well.
I've been listening to Audiobooks lately on YouTube. So far I've listened to 1984, Crime and Punishment, Animal Farm, Lord of the Flies, The Great Gatsby, That Evening Sun, and now Catcher in the Rye. I've read 1984, Animal Farm, and Catcher in the Rye before. All in high school, so it's been a while. I remember parts of Catcher in the Rye. I remembered that there were F words in it. But I didn't remember that there were so many other swear words. I mean, there were thousands of them! Still, I listened to it.
Since I was getting close to the end, I had an hour to go, but I listen on 1.75x speed, I decided to listen while I was running. I don't trust that my headphones will stay in my ears while I'm running so I just held my phone close to my ear and turned the volume all the way up. I saw the Schumacher's walking toward me. I paused it in case they wanted to talk. We just said said hello to each other. I had to pause it two other times when approaching Brown and University because the traffic was too loud for me to hear. Anyway, the real reason I'm saying all this is because on the way back to my house I was running by this sweet old lady I see a lot. She waved at me and I back at her. Just then, the narrator said b@$&@*d. Loud and clear. I'm sure she heard it. I won't be able to look her in the eyes anymore.
