i woke up earlier than my usual time just so i could finish some work for client B. my thinking was the sooner i got it done, the sooner i could spend the rest of the week doing my own thing. if i wasn't working today i might've gone out running. i'm starting to get that unhealthy feeling, like maybe i should get back into exercising after an 8 month hiatus. today would've been a good day to start, with temperature in the upper 30's, but looks like the weather will be getting warmer throughout the week.

when i run i need 2 things: music and gum. i travel light, i don't even bother bringing my id or money, just my house key. if the temperature is below 40 degrees i wear some long pants, otherwise i prefer shorts. i also don't wear my glasses, preferring contacts instead. in fact, it's probably just about the only time i get to wear my contact lenses. hopefully all this talk of running will motivate me to actually go out and do it.

in the late afternoon my father came by and dropped off some fresh crispy spring rolls my mother had just made. i watched the escapist (2008), a british prison break movie. later i caught obama's economic press conference. i still can't get over the fact that he's president, it still feels like a dream. the conference was kind of boring though, surprised it went an hour long, preempting several monday night prime time shows (like house).
