something was going on around here.

why are there school shootings? through all the coverage that i saw the most disturbing were the pictures of the shooter's (allegedly) family leaving the house with their faces covered. i'm not quite sure why, but it bothered me. people with children, i'm begging you to raise your children right. because no matter how much this kid was bullied, picked on, etc. this wouldn't have happend had he been nurtured at home.

friday night was spent with the knutowskis, first hiking with the dogs at indian lake and then back to their place for some dinner. nice night, great start to the weekend. met back up with them briefly at the rei scratch and dent sale, where i bought a headlamp that doesn't work and a waist hydration pack thing for $5 (ie fanny pack). then it was home to clean the house up while robin volunteered at the walk for obesity. after lunch, i went for a run that went really well. my legs felt great and i pushed it a little towards the end. then it was time for the neighborhood party. i went out to get the mail and when i came back in i was seeing spots in the middle of my visual field. at the party, it took another 15 minutes or so before the head pain kicked in...and then i had my first migrane. so, i spent an hour or so in bed trying not to move before it let up. i felt weird the rest of the night but we managed to go to the other party we had committed to...although i was a little out of it. slept long and hard sat night, woke up feeling groggy but rested. we put a second coat of paint on our trim and i mowed the yard.

we thought we'd go to the apple orchards with visions of back home in our heads. well, here it is nothing like back home. it made us sad and ultimately, after going to two places, we gave up. took the boy to the dog park and then i tinkered on my mtb for a little while. dinner and whammo, monday is here...
