Rushed & missing doing things the normal way

If you watch the video for today, you will notice that it's incredibly rushed and I look really tired. Well folks, that's because this morning I woke up all of 10 minutes before I was supposed to leave to go visit the doctor and I was really tired. 10 minutes!! My alarm didn't go off or I slept right on through it. Whatever happened it was rushed.

After that my day was OK. Although I noticed (really really noticed) today that I am missing out on a lot of physical contact with other people and I'm craving it. I guess since I rarely get to hang out with anyone except when I'm in class I never get very good interactions with them.  That got a little attention today when I got to hang out a little after class with many of my studio buddies but really not enough. This project is creating a people void in my life. I need to interact with at least certain people. Not least of all is my boyfriend who it seems I never get to really hang out with since I'm always leaving so I won't be running in the cold, running in the extra dark, or so I'm not late to something which I could usually bike to in about half the time it takes me to run there. 

Here's a list of 10 things I'm ready to do once this project ends

 1. wear normal cloths 2. be able to hang out with people after dark 3. be energetic enough to go to fun events 4. not be the stinky, damp person in class. 5. be able to walk with people 6. hang out with Tyler. 7. Be at the studio after dark 8. make things 9. Get large quantities of groceries-especially produce. 10. get somewhere really fast on my bike.

All of this stuff seems small but actually makes a notable difference in my life. Well besides that good stuff, I missed my Wednesday night fun run which is a bummer but I still got in some decent milage for today. Total distance came to about 10.15 miles. Here's a map.

So, everyone in all of my classes knows about this project. It's a  bit of a testament to my big mouth but it's also a little bit embarressing. They're all waiting for it to be over. In my Paradox of truth and reason class one kid asked me straight out why I wasn't done since it was February. I'm encouraged that people are taking an interest but I too am ready for the end to come. Plus I miss hanging out in the studio 'till all hours with fellow art students (Whitney) Todays runs added up to about 4.77 miles and here's a map

Nice-cold all in under 12 hours

My weather widget says that it's 56 degrees and sunny outside, It's wrong! While it may have been that warm at many points throughout the day it is not that warm right now. I should know. I just ran home in it. I had to wait until an hour after I'd eaten my Shafer meal so that I wouldn't actually want to puke like I wanted to last time that I ran home after eating Shafer. 

The delay was worth it as far as stomach feelings go but it got really cold after the sun went down and just kept getting colder while I watched "no bias, no bull" on CNN waiting for the time when I could return to my beloved and apartment. 

Complaint time!! I'm tired of not making anything. Most of you are probably thinking, "tired of not making anything? She never makes anything..." which may be true but I want the option of making something.  By the way, any ideas on how to make this a viewable/experienceable object/thing would be appreciated. 

Would any of you faithful followers be interested in doing a ceremonial end of run run (like 2 blocks or something) as a performance/experience aspect? Just a thought. I'm trying to get some feedback. Feel free to comment :D.

Today I took my first ever spinning class. For those of you who don't know but want to laugh at me-spinning is like aerobics on a stationary bike. Complete with 80's music. My milage for the day was pretty low about 4.51 miles but the spinning class briefly made me question weather I would be able to run home. Obviously, since  I'm at home making this, everything worked out AOK. Here's the map for today. Minty green

Picture of the Groceries

 Here's a tiny picture of the groceries I got today. I couldn't seem to get a bigger one up today. Just take note of the Donuts. I skillfully got those back home in tact. :D. 

Superbowl & Grocery Shopping

So, I didn't watch the Superbowl today (I'm planning on watching all the adds later on the internet). But I did go grocery shopping.

It was a nice warm day and grocery shopping would have been great if not for me stinking to high hell and the grocery store being full of last minute snack shoppers. I couldn't even bring myself to wear the fanny pack home. 

So, now I have none of the usual fruit that goes in there on the way home. There were just too many people and I bowed under the imaginary social constraint. You know, the one where it's unacceptable to wear a fanny pack. On the upside of things I didn't have the uncomfortable fanny packed run home. Some things worked out for the better. Anyways, here's my map for the day. Total milage is around 3.46 miles

Sorry!!

So this probably only matters to me. But I feel really bad that I didn't post yesterday. Sorry to anyone wbo noticed.  But, If it makes you feel any better, I didn't really do much yesterday. I ran a total of 1.19 miles over the entire day and here's the map
