Note: I am aware that this looks God awful in IE. Do yourself a favor and get you some Firefox before you get lost in the big scary world out there.

Pre-SAD
Things are going well, although the return to school fast approaches. The weather is tricking me, however, because it feels like it's warming-up-for-good middle-of-spring but is only the beginning of January, and oh the agony of post-Christmas winter. I can't hyphenate enough words to begin describing the toll seasonal affective disorder takes on me, though I'm sure I will produce enough entries in the coming months to give you some vague, barely formulated idea of HOW I HATE THE GREY.
Fortunately, today was very nice, particularly when I got out of work two hours early. There were walkers, joggers, bikers everywhere, and I immediately thought, I must join them. I parked in the driveway, changed into better shoes, and hitched up the dog to take a stroll. The guys who were flying RC airplanes had gone, but all the old men were out with their dogs, just like this old man. I spoke to one with a well-behaved yellow lab for a while, who said after a while, "I should go before the sun sets and the wife sends out the National Guard." He and the dog got back in their car, and I liked my barrette, and the cyclist said hello, and then the world did the following.
...And then my dog pooped in the road.
