i was only going to take noodle, the beagle, but numie was frantically, FRANTICALLY pawing over and over and over on the gate to the dining room, wanting so desperately to go with us, so i took both of them for my run.<\/p>\n
tomorrow, i think i\u2019m going alone.<\/p>\n
for the first 15 minutes, noodle would not stop straining on the leash. he just kept pulling me, and i was pulling back, and maybe that\u2019s why i feel exhausted, which is not how i ever feel after a 35 minute run.<\/p>\n
numie, of course, just walked briskly along. he COULD run like the wind if he feels like it, but he had no motivation.<\/p>\n
for a while noodle settled down, but whenever we passed people and\/or dogs, or a squirrel, he\u2019d pull and strain again and i felt like my arm was getting ripped right out of its socket. there were lots of people and dogs and squirrels at the park.<\/p>\n
whew.<\/p>\n
i did see a few of the pumpkins lined up near the carillon; last night and tonight there are 2,0005 pumpkins on display! that sounds very neat, and i\u2019m going to go see them tonight. maybe i\u2019ll bring my camera, but if it\u2019s dark, i don\u2019t know how the photo would turn out.<\/p>\n
i called my friend kate to see if she\u2019d like to go see “jekyll & hyde” with me tomorrow, and she said she\u2019d love to, but she has too many plans. she saw it last night, and COULD NOT BELIEVE how good it was. she said she expected it to be good, but she had NO IDEA.<\/p>\n
maybe next time she\u2019ll listen to me when i say something is TOO UNBELIEVABLY GOOD TO BE TRUE.<\/p>\n
i\u2019ve been having a couple of experiences like that lately, as a matter of fact.<\/p>\n
a refreshing change of pace.<\/p>\n
the gate in the basement here is really, really high, so it\u2019s good for stretching, but mostly just annoying. it would be nice to be in a gate-free place, a place where i could randomly walk from room to room without any hurdles at all to leap over.<\/p>\n
not that i\u2019ve ever leaped.<\/p>\n
lept?<\/p>\n
christine said she forgets to eat dinner ALL THE TIME. this does not surprise me, because she\u2019s one of those naturally thin people, like my dad, who frequently forgets a meal or two.<\/p>\n
i never (except for last night) forget a meal. i usually am very good about remembering to eat plenty of snacks, for that matter. when i visit christine, we will not miss any dinners. we\u2019re going to this great indian restaurant that we went to the last time i visited her, for one thing.<\/p>\n
i\u2019m hoping there will be NO SNOW.<\/p>\n
actually, the forecast for next week says it\u2019s going to be in the high 60\u2019s there. nice.<\/p>\n
that is all for now. <\/p>\n
ok then,<\/p>\n
grace with things to look forward to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
