My incipient rage is not very incipient these days, because I'm either having to account for some basic incompetence at work, or I have to deal with people I can't get rid of, or my job in general just crawls under my skin, or the work is fucking stultifying, or all of the above.

I probably shouldn't take so much glee at running 6.66mi every time I run, but I feel better when I run that distance, just because. I think I like it because it unsettles people so much, which causes me to revel that much more in it. I coudl be penitent, but I really don't give two flying shits.

Hard first five laps, one easy recovery lap. The recovery lap was being prudent; the first five was mostly catharsis. It's certainly that when the second song that comes to mind involves the white-hot fury that Bob Mould's "Underneath Days" involves.
