3 Wives

So Heather and I are sitting here drinking wine and reminiscing about Athena and the wonderful life she's had with us. I said I can't believe that she's been with me for 14 years, after which Heather remarked that she can't believe Athena made it through my three wives. "A MACH and 3 wives, that's pretty damn good," is what I think she said. That's one helluva dog. :)

Close Call

Happy National Running Day! I got my run in first thing this morning, but I almost didn't make it back. A woman yakking on her cell phone hit me as I was crossing the street near the end of my run. Her SUV hit me with its side view mirror and rear corner as I banged on her window to try to get her attention. I don't think she really knew what happened and am pretty sure she never hung up the phone since she drove into the curb several times as she made her way through the gas station parking lot afterwards. Be careful out there people, and wear your shoe tag or your RoadID.
