Foggy Morning
I walked to work today, to avoid driving home this afternoon during the chaos of freshman move-in. As I was walking, the fog started to descend, and by the time I got to the edge of campus, it was pea soup. Absolutely gorgeous.
I’ve been averaging about 6 miles a day, according to my FitBit. I think it’s probably pretty close to accurate, after comparing it to what my pedometer says. Most of that is split between walking to and from work, with a break in the afternoon to walk around in the stacks.
Loading Dock Tree
I’ve been walking in to work (and home again) as much as possible. When I do, I enter the building through the loading dock, where this little tree lives.
Puke Green
I found a puke green flannel shirt at Goodwill. I love this color. It uploaded next to a photo I took at work of the western horizon, and I think the two images go nicely together.
Goodwill Haul
Because I needed more books, oh yes, I did.

Reflections
I walk by the IU art museum when I go to the public library, which I did today. I love the way the sky and nearby buildings are reflected in the windows. Thank you, I. M. Pei.

You can choose to blame
your circumstance on fate
or bad luck or bad choices
or you can choose to fight back.
Things aren’t always going to be
fair in the real world. That’s just
the way it is. But for the most
part, you get what you give.
The rest of your life is being
shaped right now with the
dreams you chase, the choices
you make and the person
you decide to be.
The rest of your life is a
long time and it starts
right now.
Dudevertising
Drinking Diet Coke will make your dick fall off. TRUFAX. So Coke created macho Coke Zero for manly men. And now they’re advertising it with heavily gendered crap like this.
So. Gross. I can’t even envision a scenario wherein I would willingly share my pop with bros or grillmasters.
Surprise!
It has rained and rained and rained. The garden is happy, but I’m getting a little tired of it.
