Walkin' the Doggy Dog

Since the parents have been out of town, the job of walking the dog has fallen to me. I was a little hesitant to take on this particular task; was I going to pass out and have a heart attack on the walk? Would I be hit by a car (I haven’t had good luck walking along Holladay Blvd.)? Would Barkley decide that he wanted to run and drag me around the Dog Park in cartoon form?

Regardless, I have taken on the task and I quite like it! It is pleasant to get out and enjoy the fresh air, get a spot of exercise and have somebody to talk to that will listen implicitly to the nothingness ramblings that spew out of my mouth. One of my favorite things about the walk is the scenery. That is really, why I am writing this blog; so I can post these pictures.

For a long time I took the neighborhood, I was raised in for granted. It is truly a remarkable portion of God’s green earth!

Therefore, this weekend the parents left for a cruise. They're gonna be gone for two weeks, so ya'll know what that means, party every night at my parents house. Anyway, we went to dinner Sunday; Uncle Rick decided to treat us to the Bonsai Japanese Steak House and we had a blast! The video is worth watching. ;) It was really fun to see Mandy final catch a shrimp, but i think it was more fun to see Uncle Rick catch a shrimp.

P.S. I've been listening to a song all day. I love it! "My Man Friday - Cut Through My Defenses"

Running

So, this morning, i was thinking about exercising. I have many friends that like to run marathons, and half-marathons, and triathlons, and stuff. I hate running. Running is the worst!
