Oh man...just did 3 miles and it felt so good. I haven't run in like weeks, mainly because I'm so busy, but I've also kind of been paying attention to my doctor because my knee is gettin worse and worse so I gotta be careful. But I forgot how good this felt. Running has got to be my favorite thing ever, because it's not like dancing for me. When I dance there are physical obstacles I have to overcome, and I'm not fully in charge because there are a lot of limitations to what my body can do and I have to be paying attention to so many different things at once, but when I run, all I have to do is think about my breathing, and not let it speed up or get out of control, and I could just go forever and ever. So I don't think. I just breathe. And this is my absolute favorite time of the year and time of the night to run, because everything is turning pretty and the air smells so clean and when you run at like 7:00, everyone else is out too, walking and riding bikes and playing in their front yards...and it just all looks so perfect. Then I came home and realized that I left the garage open (I'm the only one home.) So I thought there was going to be a murderer in my house and got freaked out. Haha...

And of course I didn't wear my knee brace because it's at school in my dance locker. So now I'm like dying, and I didn't have my good shoes either because they're at school in my dance locker. So now my arch hurts. And I forgot that I have bruises and scratches all over my legs from the party on friday, so it probably looks like I've been abused, but whatever. That felt good.

And now I have to do homework.

And maybe make my posters.

And shower...I might do this one first....

i love you - erika -
