I should be a runner. The sound of my soles hitting the pavement. The pounding of my heart with each stride. Panting. Feeling the burn in my muscles as I push on. Further. Sweat dripping. More distance. I could be a great runner.
Everything seems to disappear. The world blends into itself leaving me and the pavement. One quick step after another. I don't have to think. It's just running. I don't have to plan. Run. It doesn't matter where I go. One more step. Further from where I was. Never looking back. Always forward.

- Me... I'm lots of things. Some things you'd expect, many you wouldn't. I'm open, honest, kind, blah, blah, blah... are you still reading this? Wow... Read the blog. Then you'll have some insight into who I am. I'm ever evolving. I'm a work in progress, as most people should be.

Also, I can't be a runner.
I have bad knees.

okay, nevermind.
I have seen "What Women Want." It is Mel Gibson.
I didn't think of that. How odd. You're right though.
Grace... yeah, not quite what I meant but okay.
I almost went for a run today but I slid in the driveway on the snow and returned to the comfort of my room. I had a mental jog instead.
Come on, you know I am a dork.
Don't tell me you were suprised by that.
