Through the Looking Glass

I went for a run the other day...in January on a 50 degree day.  Who needs San Diego when you can get that?  During my runs lately I have been more attentive to people outside their home, driving their car or sitting in an office building.  My initial thought is always, what are they thinking and why are they staring at me?  Do I have a piece a toilet paper on my shoe?  Did I remember to put on my running shorts?  This is my thought process and the turmoil I put myself through every time I see people.  I have come to the conclusion though,  they are jealous...jealous for the simple reason I am truly utilizing a beautiful day.

As with every run, I allow my mind to wander and let it go to places that either inspire me, amaze me or completely befuddle me.  Going along with the latter, I imagined myself as a lizard in a aquarium with big eyes peering at me through the glass.  For a treat my owner turned up the temperature in the bowl and put a lamp over my bowl to allow me to stretch my legs.  I was thankful for the day and the time spent pushing Cameron around for an hour...
