I'm dodging the running session with Dan today since my legs seem to have forgotten their purpose. We ran four miles yesterday inside the arena gym since it was too cold outside. I was really sore then but at least I could walk down a flight of stairs. Today I'm taking the elevator, which oddly has a smell that reminds me of my grandad. I almost always take stairs by choice since elevator rides leave me standing next to people I generally don't want to talk with unless I think, "hi there...so you're too lazy to take the stairs too?" could be a succesful conversation opener. Kellogg's and a few other product companies are sponsoring a fitness program to encourage students and staff to become physically active by rewarding time spent exercising with chincy shwag, so yesterday the arena manager hooked me up with a t-shirt, a water bottle, and a box of chocolate chip poptarts. I'd trade all three for some Icy-Hot or another smelly anti-soreness goo, but free is free is free.

I watched Forrest Gump with my neighbor yesterday morning. Certain parts of that movie make me teary-eyed every time I see it. Dumb stupid movie.

It's Friday and I have no plans for the weekend. I thought about asking out a girl I met at the salt-water aquarium the other day, but I'm low on cash and can't think of how to make asking her to pay for everything on a date sound appealing. "You're really nice and attractive...would you like to take me out for dinner?"
No.

What did the Dalai Lama say to the hot dog vendor?

Make me one with everything.

That's only half the joke...

...the rest is:

So the vendor serves the Lama his hotdog, and says:
"That'll be two bucks."

So the Lama hands his a twenty and proceeds to eat the dog.
When he's done, he turns to the vedor and says:
"I gave you a twenty. Where is my change?"

The vendor replies:
"Change must come from within."
