faced with the dodo's conundrum.

last night i snowshoed for an hour...i always forget what good workout snowshoeing is. i didn't cover much ground, but that doesn't matter...i got a nice workout (as did oliver).

speaking of oliver, poor guy has some sort of eye infection. hopefully it's not going to warrant a trip to the vet, but since we're calling them about it they'll probably say to come in. then they'll give him something for it. and we'll be out another $100.

i'm digging the shins album. that is one thing about my job...i can do it with earbuds in my ear most of the day. and yesterday i just kept listening to the shins. the lyric's are great. "your nightmares only need a year or two to unfold." for some reason i like that one. what does that say about me? don't answer. "let's carve my aging face off, fetch us a knife. start with my eyes, down so the lines form a grimacing smile."

actually, the earbud thing is sometimes bad. because sometimes i listen to elliot smith at work. and the line "you say you mean well...you don't know what you mean. fucking outta stay the hell away from things you know nothing about" and i look around at the people that i work with and i feel like exploding.

i try not to listen to elliot smith at work much anymore.
