Slow Morning.

1.94 mi - 38:25 = 19.5 min/mi Why? Like a dum-dum, I forgot the stretch the muscle group that gives me the most issues - my calves. Definitely not my morning. Came back from the walk to find an overturned garbage can, bellpepper seeds everywhere, and a very guilty looking 10 lb Shih Tzu. The only issue I have with punishing him for this is that I'm not completely sure it was him, even though he looks incredibly guilty. You see. My dog is the largest of my animals, only because our kittens aren't grown yet. I have a trio of 6 month old kittens that are 9,8, and 6 lbs. The 6 lb one has never displayed interest for the trash, as neither has the 8 lb, but the giant? Oh yea. First night we had him he was trying to get into it. It makes since as Giant Sawyer and the Petite Kate (6lber) were both from a feral cat colony down in New Orleans and had been collected from the Trap and Release program when the people running it determined that they were tamable. I'm not sure what age they were collected at, if they once had to go through the trash for food or not, but his sob story makes me think that he could also be responsible for this. But he's just too cute! Exhibit A & B:

  1. My bet it was the cats. :) I have four of my own and they are notorious thieves. They've even gone into my purse and stolen pens, my checkbook, etc. They also go onto my dresser, take my jewelry out of my little jewel box and steal my earrings. They're pretty wicked but I love them.

  3. Hi Amy! Don't worry about your time; all that matters is that you got out there!

    Lol @ guilty-looking Shih Tzu!

  4. @Sasha - I think you're right. The worst that mine steal is my socks into their kitty cave (a large cardboard box that I don't have the heart to take away from them).
    @Rachel - Glad to find someone else local (I'm from Denham Springs, living in BR)! The names were actually picked out by the group that we got them from, and those names just seem to suit them so well.
    @Marisa - Thanks for the comment, Marisa. *_* I think I'm a little starstruck because I've been reading your blog for at least a month. I know it's more important that I'm out there, but it's just a little game with myself. Just so I'm not getting into a rut and keep challenging myself. Good luck on your upcoming marathon!
