| | Yesterday and today are supposed to be 108º. It was warm. Oh, now I do remember something about yesterday. I was wearing a black shirt, and I was extra warm. Hmmm, I'm not going to go back and edit that one in. Anyway, our dryer broke, and I don't have a lot of clean running clothes right now. I wore a pair of shorts that I don't usually wear. They were kind of loose and I couldn't untie the draw string to tighten them up. But they stayed up. Mostly. There was a lot more people out this morning. At one point I saw two walkers in front of me. One was about 100 feet in front of the other. Right before catching the first one, two cyclists passed us up. The right when I caught the first walker, two other walkers were coming towards us. I had to run right in the middle of all of them. I said in a loud voice, "It's like Grand Central Station here!" They all looked at me bewildered. I looped around and saw this tall all lady that I see a lot. Usually she's jogging, but today she was walking with a friend. Also I was following the cowboy jogger from Tuesday. He was once again running and wearing regular clothes. I looped around at University and saw Jeff laying down up against the wall. I barely make eye contact with him anymore. Then I saw a lady (looked like a high school aged girl, except for her forearm covered in tattoos.) She looked like she was about to start running, but then she saw me, so she casually walked back to the park entrance, sat down and pretended to tie her shoe. That's when my shorts started to sag and felt like they were going to fall off. So I took my phone out of my pocket and carried it the rest of the way. I saw the Grand Station Central couple again, and the man said, "You're doing good today."
