mmmmasochism

In some weird, masochistic way, I guess I kind of like the pain. It reminds me that while the rest of my body is frozen numb from the early morning sunlessness, I am, in fact, still alive.

But then, I get home, I thaw and my knee is still screaming at me "help me! I'm hurt!" And I have to think "Something I'm doing while I'm running is hurting my knee."
So I make a list:
1) Maybe I run funny.
- then..no can't be that. I run normally. I think...
2) Maybe its the cold making it throb in agony
- can't be that. I run all the time in the cold and it only started happening when....
AHA!
3) Maybe its because I've developed a love for running in barely there shoes. This can't be good for my knee joint, right?

So, as much as I enjoy running in thin-as-ballet-shoes shoes, if I want to keep my knee in tact, I'm going to have to suck it up and dig out my running shoes.

prefect? perfect

I'm in love. With the weather today. Perfect.
It snowed. But not to much to get everything slick. Just enough to make everyone get little white flecks on them.
I love it.

I love the irony in having to take off my glasses to see. I love the temperature- cold, but warmer than it was yesterday, because of the moisture in the air.

Sunrise Log

I witnessed the coolest sunrise this morning.
The sun comes up from behind the mountain, where clouds were sitting uptop of.
At first, the sun just light up the bottom of the clouds, leaving the top dark, but the bottom a vibrant orange. Then, as the sun came up behind the clouds, it highlighted the outer edges of them, making it look like the sun was being eclipsed by something thicker than clouds.

It was awesome.
