We (somewhat) reluctantly got out of bed this morning and ran two miles. I felt fine during and immediately after. However, as I sit here at my desk, my back is screaming at me!! Maybe with some narcotics racing through my system it will start to calm down some. Nonetheless, my trainer/gf believes is cross-training, so tomorrow morning will not include a run! ;-)

Gf and I had a great date night last night. We went to a fire-roasted pizza place in town that also houses a microbrewery. We had a lot of fun talking and being silly. We were going to try to go out to a movie, but at the time really just wanted to go home. And good thing too -- she fell asleep on me. Well, not LITERALLY "on" me, but unexpectedly nonetheless.

I have decided what tonight's menu is going to be: shrimp pesto over linguini, baby spring green salad with cherries, and roasted garlic bread. I have selected a nice reisling for dinner, and several bottles of red for other times. After dinner we will cue up "Princess Bride" and relax at my re-A/C'ed apartment!!

Tomorrow morning I get to collect my boys and take them for haircuts. The elder boy does great -- he sits still and follows the instructions. As a reward he typically requests bubble gum. The younger, though, must be held ... screaming and flailing ... while the stylist ATTEMPTS to cut his hair. She gave up last time and I had to cut his bangs myself! Then me and the boys will spend the rest of the day and night together. I drop them off Sunday noon. It should be a good time. I wonder if I should suggest gf to stop by some time while they are with me?
