Walking around Lake Union today

A trophy from today's walk

Today's somewhat awesome walk, 8.57 miles in 2:38

Didn't like this route nearly as much as I thought I would, mainly
because much of the East side of Lake Union is crowded up with so much
stuff that you can't see much of anything. And the area from Gasworks
to Fremont is just so popular. I ended up waiting at a crosswalk with
a group of about 15 people, about half of which were on bikes. It was
silly. I don't really like the sun, I should probably avoid walking in
it. A walk early this morning just wasn't in the cards, though.

Hope the blisters I got today don't make it too hard to buy the new
shoes I desperately need tomorrow.

It was a little dry for these for a bit, but suddenly I have a ton.

With the blister pads Joce recommended in place, I decided to resume my morning walk today. It was painful but doable. I should have set my alarm a few minutes earlier to account for walking slower. When I got to the bus stop, it was 5:50 and the bus is due at 5:53. A little closer than I'm comfortable with. 

We're now far enough into the summer that it wasn't particularly dark when I left the house. The difference was interesting because I saw a lot more stuff than I have before. A person even walked past me at one point. By far, the best thing I saw all morning was a black cat crossing the street only to be chased down the road by a crow, at which point a black and white cat ran across the street to where the first cat originally came from.

Having to skip yesterday bummed me out.

Fruit cup lolz

I've had three chances to order my daily fruit cup since they made the switch and I can't serve it up myself. The first time was with my old arch enemy, the sandwich lady who likes to cut me off at the coffee machine. She makes sandwiches and wraps all the time, so she understands how to make things fit in other things. Ever try to close an overstuffed wrap? It isn't pretty. She flew along the row of fruit and did a great job flinging a little bit of each into the cup.

Yesterday, someone I don't recognize at all helped me and made the classic salad bar mistake. You put down too much lettuce, and even just a little of each thing you want piles up way too high. She saw her error halfway through and said something along the lines of, "Oh no! I can make this work. Don't worry, you'll get some of everything." She managed to balance some of everything on there and crammed it down with a lid that couldn't close. I got it all the way back to my desk without incident, though. 

The guy who got stuck with me today really blew it. There were six fruits there, and he started by filling the cup halfway up with strawberries. He started to panic on the third fruit, so I told him not to worry about the honeydew.

It's interesting to watch people do things like this. Like putting pepperoni on a pizza. You need to have a plan, or else one side will have too much and the other won't have enough. And that's never good. Unless you want to hog all the pepperoni.

A pome for soam
's a chance to say
A thing they can't
eh nother way

For me, I see
a way to be
More obnoxious
lee silly

My verse, you curse
Your tone, so terse
The worst in the whole
universe

But do not fear
The end is near
So now you all shall clap
and cheer
