Ides of September.
Same mood, but amplified today. Fearless and confident and not explaining much. Owing no explanation. Well, anywhere. To anyone. Between the exits, where the ideas find me, where the confidence builds and these words circle and sing and stampede for me. This morning’s drive, maybe just another one, or maybe not. Office now, of course,…
Not letting myself get distracted. Keep looking at my run stats and I have no idea why, what am I interpreting. There’s nothing to interpret.
Think I may have surprised myself, with a loud yell to self to get out there. Go for a run, stop saying you’re tired… who cares. Do it anyway. And I did. Need to run every day. OR, something every day, if I’m to make weight for the wedding. Close, but still work to do…
Note
Composure is part of the composition. Protect the quiet that lets you think clearly.Care for the mind doing the work.Move with intention, not urgency. Not everything deserves access to your attention. Don’t let the day untie you.
5 miles written.
50 days till Alter…. 10 days into the 60 LAB. In office, what next. Tonight in Sonoma County for a little concert thing in Windsor, then… back here in the morning, then back to Sonoma County. Movement, movement, movement. Love it. What keeps the machine a machine, and ME a machine. I’m calm now, after…
After Ops meeting, I’m even more intent on getting this writer more organized. Simplified.
No run at lunch. Going forward, workouts are either before or after “shift”. Messaged Nurse…. She’s busy at work. Crazy commute for her as well, taking her nearly an hour to reach NB. Said there was a police chase that ended in a crash, and the suspect stabbed a dog…? AND, the perp is now…

Back from 5 mile run. Trying to cool down before 13:00 meeting. Sipping water from the Stanley the Nurse bought me years ago. Strong, I felt on the run. Fearless…. And with a more electric and applied confidence. The Nurse and I go back and forth with the idea, that feeling this much love and…
07:59 ::: Home and starting day. Coffee with the Nurse at Peet’s, I believe our first such of the week.
Been making coffee at home, which I nearly wish we would have done this morning, with the wait and the crowd in the shop. Parking before that.. But I’m here, practicing calm. Not much practice needed, I’m simply doing it. Discussion yesterday with a Senior Instructional Designer, about me offering a course at the company. …
6.38 miles. 8:28 pace. Hot, and more so than I expected. I know it’s Vacaville, but DAMN.
12:15, early lunch done. And now time to write and enjoy some time to SELF… a true dose of self-care about to materialize. One of the painters comes up. There goes the quiet. No complaints, just logging occurrence. QBR meeting went well, thinking of getting out of the house, changing scene, maybe the coffee place…
13:12 Managed to write 6.3-ish miles. Shower after and lunch for kids, now we count down till Henry’s T-ball entraînement. Practice… Laughing to myself about earlier, when Nurse said something funny in the Oliver’s cafe and a guy overheard, then walking past us saying “Sounds like true love to me…” We laughed, Nurse a little…
This morning…
How I start.

12:38 Back from run. Dominant thoughts while on the 5+ mile route, scoring 8:13 per mile: 1. Do it for YOU. 2. The boring content is BEAMING, with more content and Stories, and education that can be applied ANYWHERE, anyhow, any way, for any intention. 3. What running is, and why… why do it. ;;;;;;;;…
