This is perimeter run 44.

First real PT in about a week. I was sick with a bacterial cold that was pretty bad, bad enough where I was on Augmentin, Tylenol, Motrin, and Flonase for a week. That bad.

Then I was at Qatar on temporary duty. I was by myself, so I didn't get much in the way of support, so I passed up on PT. Self-medicating some of my frustrations was preferable to physical exercise. I'm denied that in Afghanistan, so I'll drink when I get the chance. I suspect don't have a drinking problem because I don't have an opportunity to contribute to it much.

This was my last opportunity to catch up with my good friend Rico, too, and it was gloriously good to see him one last time before he goes home.

For not running in a week, I guess I'm not too unhappy about the outcome, but I have much to rebuild as I've been dilatory at best with staying in shape.

The John Williams was after watching snippets of the movie AI: Artificial Intelligence, but that's a bad movie to watch if I miss my children...and I miss my children.

I've thought about a great many things lately, but nothing I feel like writing about. Yet.
