| | I texted Mike yesterday to see if he was still up for running today. Earlier in the week he said he wanted to pick me up at 6:00am. He finally texted back late and said that he had been moving furniture around all day, so he would text me at 9:00am. Around 9:30am he texted to say he was too sore. So I texted Glen, knowing that he likes to run in the afternoon anyway. He never texted back. So after eating 4 pieces of pizza, I finally decided to run on my own at 7:30pm.
Since it was dark, I decided to stay on the main streets. That way, if I suffered a massive heart attack from all the pizza consumption, someone might find me. But as I was running, I felt like such a fatty, that I almost changed my mind because I didn't want people seeing my fat belly hanging out of my shirt. But I went on the main roads anyway, and felt totally blah. I went west down Adobe, turned south on Greenfield, east on University, north on Higley, and west again on Adobe. When I turned north on Higley, I could see a police helicopter circling around with its spotlight. It looked like it was in my neighborhood, or at least on Adobe. The closer I got to Adobe, the more I could tell that it was definetely circling around Adobe. I wondered if it would be safe to turn on the street. I made the turn and saw a couple of police vehicles parked on the side. Then, as I passed the first road beyond Higley, I could see an officer with his gun drawn, waiting for the suspect to come around the corner. I just kept running and hoped that the police helicopter wouldn't think I was the suspect running away.
