Tonight marks the first evening that Jess and I have spent away from each other. I must say it is strange. It is very quiet around here. For those that are just joining us here, Jess volunteered with the Utah County Rape Crisis Team when we lived in Utah. Eager to do similar volunteer work here in Livermore she found Tri-Valley Haven and joined up with their crisis team. Tonight was her first night of training, so that’s where she’s been all evening.
I decided that it would be a good evening to go for a run. I want to get back into running regularly, since I haven’t been running since some time in February. So I took off jogging down Livermore Avenue. Boy am I out of shape. I jogged for about 1.5 miles before resting and stretching. Then I walked a mile and jogged the remaining half mile to get back home. It was a good run, I’m just completely out of shape.
The rest of the evening I’ve spent working on some programming projects. I did some work to keep the Board alive, and got the code base setup on my desktop so I can start working on Board 5 again. I made dinner (exciting plate of spaghetti and a slice of toast). And now I’m finishing up this blog post. Jess will be home in another 30 minutes or so. Maybe I’ll play some Guitar Hero in the interim.
Also, unlike the cool weather Mike is having down in Sunnyvale, the weather here in Livermore is lovely:
This is usually how the weather is, occasionally it gets cranky and pushes into the 90’s and even the 100’s, but that doesn’t usually last very long. I certainly don’t miss Utah summers.
