- I took down my poll concerning if and when I should run a half marathon. The winner of the poll was "run half marathon at home (Virginia)". So I will run the half marathon at home in Virginia. Training is coming along nicely. No injuries. It is not easy. Next Saturday I will run 10 miles. I am actually considering continuing on after the race, to train for a full marathon. Here is a picture of the W&OD trail that I use for long runs. It used to be a train track. It goes from where I live straight in to DC.
- Hot 99.5, the most popular radio station in DC, was going to move to a new studio (is this the right word?), so they decided to destroy the old studio while on the air. I was privileged to be listening as they did this. They tried using a sledgehammer, cutting wires, pouring Sunny Delight into the mechanisms, and other things I can't remember. It finally worked, and they actually went off the air. I listened to the dead silence for several minutes, until I had to get out of the car and go laughing in to work. Wonder how long it took for them to move into the new studio and get back on the air? When they finally post the news story on their web site I will let you know.
- Here is the song of the week called "Hot Air Balloon" by Owl City. They are of the genre "electronic". Owl City has the happiest music I have ever heard, and it is perfect for a 14 year old girl and her mother.

Good for you for running the marathon. I am quite impressed. 10 miles is a lot. You go girl! I listened to the song and I could see it as a good song to dance to or exercise to. Very upbeat.
OWL CITY IS MY LOVE!!!!!!!!!!
I like Owl City too! Marcus has just discovered them, thank goodness. He has been listening to Avenged Sevenfold which is hideous music in my opinion. Good luck on the marathon!!
