Running Crazy

When I left the house this morning at a little before 6am, it wasn't raining. The clouds looked ominous but nothing too daunting. I thought that I would be lucky again and avoid the rain. But, nope. I was about ten minutes out when it started to get a little misty. Then, it got a little more misty and droplets starting hitting me in the face. The dark clouds that seemed to be on the other side of the sky just a little earlier were heading straight for me. I started getting wet but kept running. I felt like a crazy girl running in the rain at 6am. But, I saw another person running, a man with his dog, so I didn't feel too crazy knowing that someone else was out early and in the rain.

I think my body might be starting to fall apart too. My left elbow was making a noise as I was doing push-ups this morning. My knees have been squeaking for a while too. I've never been in real pain before, other than the time I sprained my ankle and didn't give myself enough time before I started running on it again. But, today, I felt a sharp pain in the joint where my left arm connects to the shoulder. I don't even know how I could have hurt something there. I lied on the floor for a few minutes, and the pain went away eventually.

Today's music choice, with the sound turned on low: Of Montreal.
