I struggled a bit getting going this afternoon and eventually decided to take a walk. A couple miles from my house is Greenlake. A man made lake with a paved trail about 3 miles long. Definitely not one of my favorite places to walk, but it's close. On warm, sunny days the trail can be packed. It can feel as if you're driving on a freeway. Weaving in and out, trying to avoid dogs, strollers, and sometimes even bikes. Thankfully today was overcast and actually fairly chilly. I tried to walk somewhat briskly to get my heartrate up but I can't always tell if my pace is consistent. I had my MP3 player to listen to but still got a little bored. I do like seeing all the dogs though. They always get a smile from me and occasionally I'll acknowledge the owner. ;-) I also got to see some turtles laying out on a log, cute. Not much more going on today. I don't think I've mentioned this in previous entries, but my favorite hobby is knitting. So a good part of the rest of the day was spent working on a shawl. I just recently discovered podcasts too...so cool! They're great for listening to while I knit.
Speaking of knitting...
Jack: Sure... I gotcha. New York, third-wave feminist, college-educated, single and pretending to be happy about it, over-scheduled, undersexed, you buy any magazine that says "healthy body image" on the cover, and every two years you take up knitting for ... a week.
Pete: That is dead on!
Liz: What, are you going to guess my weight now?
Jack: You don't want me to do that.
