Thoughts Out Loud
Sytlistic 5
The site has been quiet for way too long. And I’ve been way too lazy. But another fitful start is better than nothing. You’ve probably noticed that I’ve lightened up the background a good bit. It’s less eye catching this way I think and serves it’s intended purpose of eliminating all that white space better.…
Itchy
I’ve always been a motor mouth. It’s been a defining feature of my personality for as long as I can remember. One of the reasons for this site was to provide me an outlet for screaming into the void. I always worry that what I write might end up being seen, me being judged, and…
The Goal
Inch by inch the design is improved and refined. Inch by inch I get a little better. This one was almost another issue in the Stylistic series. I’m working out the kinks on having a background image. I wanted something I could tile that wouldn’t be as generic as a starry night sky. Canva helped…
Incremental
Friday’s and Monday’s runs are in the bag. The Babbel account has been restarted so my Spanish lessons can begin in earnest, and the guitar is restrung and tuned—there is nothing to it but to do it. All in all, it was a productive weekend. If I can find a way to increase my energy…
A boy has swagger…
…While a man has a plan. So, I didn’t abandon running. Or the site, no matter what it looked like at first. I’m still fiddling with layout options and techniques. I’ve also added a shiny new contact page. The next step is to set up an email for the site so that things from here…
Easy Does It
So, I’ve learned a lesson, but maybe I’m pushing myself a little too hard. When I woke up this morning, my right heel was in extreme pain. Putting weight on it was rough. A compression sock and Ibuprofen are getting me through the day. I may skip my Friday run and stretch and lightly exercise…
Clockwork/Stylistic 6
So this place is getting a little more cozy a little less rigid. Round the borders of everything. Make them smooth and sexy. Embiggen the site title in the Header. Drop all the black borders and let things flow more naturally. I’m less in love with my particular bland shade of gray. But I’ll let…
The Plan/Stylistic 5
The plan as it pertains to my Truffle Shuffles is just to go do the thing Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Until I can do my little out-and-back route without stopping and then continuing on the Getting Started Plan on Nike Run Club. It seems a little fruitless to try speed runs and long runs when…
The Charm
If you’re wondering where the Nike Run Club data is, so am I. There’s been some technical error or a mistake on the part of the operator. The effective result is that I’m missing half my data and ruining my sexy little box sandwich. Considering how bad I felt on this one. Tightness and pain…
