Running in 3/4 Time
I ran a mile again today. For some reason I am becoming a runner, and writing about it here just might jinx me. So I won't go on and on about my new permanently healthy lifestyle. Anyway, I noticed as I ran that the rhythm of my feet is naturally in 3/4 time. In my head, it is always: boom, bang, bang, boom, bang, bang. I can consciously think about it differently (2/4 or 4/4), but it always slides back. My only explanation is that my distant German heritage is deeply rooted in my genes. I couldn't get away from that Polka waltz if I tried. This is further evidenced by my limited repertoire on the accordion that I've had for many a year. Plenty of time to learn more than a polka beat.
And now for something completely different:
Marigold and I purchased areoplane tickets to fly to Justin and Alicia's Wedding! This make feel the exciting and happy, yes. Much joy floweth forth from the inner regions of me.

I highly recommend starting a runlog.
You can pick up where I left off.
I still got the accordion, Justin. Unfortunately, it doesn't get out of its case too often. When it does, it tends to offend everyone, including me, with its unmelodious honk.
We are really looking forward to seeing you in Oct.!
I think its funny that both justin and alicia said they were "scared" that you both wouldn't be able to come. I imagine them both with fear in their eyes, trembling, in a dark room.
Ooh. Now that it's in writing, I think we could sue when you don't deliver the goods!
Of course, the moment we served you with an actual lawsuit, the friendship would be over and thus the offer would cease to stand.
Damn you and your criminal mastermind, Professor Boyn. Damn. You.
