World Record!

So have I mentioned that I'll be working in the same department as a former world record holder?

I will be!

Indoor mile, female 45-49 age group. Pretty cool.

So I wasn't tagged, but I found this interesting. I really liked Tusca's. Here's my unsolicited "six word novel":

Walking feels wrong, so I run.

I could explain it, but it's fairly transparent. The thing I liked about these is the fact that there are usually lots of ways to interpret just six words, and these interpretations will likely vary from person to person based on experience.

Hemmingway's is pretty damn dark...copied from Tuscaloosa:

For Sale: Baby shoes. Never worn

Running is happening. I often have been skipping the watch, and I haven't been logging, but I'm keeping it up about 4-5 days a week. 30-40 miles, probably.

Offer -- Counter-offer

Round one of home offer is complete, buyers losing. With a pretty reasonable opening bid, only a bit below what we know they paid for the place, these bastards counter-offered with a sum only negligibly below their asking price, which is over 10% more than what they paid only a few months ago. Good luck to them trying to find a complete sucker.

Unfortunately, we really like the place. We might not bother moving to another home. So we put our cards on the table, told them what we're willing to pay, take or leave. Hopefully they'll come to their senses.

I should run today, since I haven't the last two days. A little air will do me some good. More sleep would do me better, though. Getting the boy to sleep has been difficult these days.
