You are with me looking down to the ground from about 30 feet in the air, looking through the bars of my patio prison cell.
No, I am not contemplating jumping.
What I was contemplating when this picture was taken was going jogging. And doing so in a novel, never before attempted way. As in go jogging right from my front door, rather than drive to a park to jog on trails.
I am now back from this experiment. On the plus side, it saved time to not drive anywhere. On the non-plus side, I like jogging in a park better than sidewalks with cars in close proximity.
And my chronic aching right foot woe came back, which contributed to the jogging not being what I'd call a huge success.
It was warm enough to do the jogging in shorts and t-shirt. I currently have my windows open, due to the fact that I did jog enough to get a bit overheated.
Windows open on December 30. I do not remember this being doable in my previous Decembers in Texas.
This morning I blogged on my Washington Blog about an amusing thing I read in the Seattle P-I. That being an article that used the various lists, rankings and polls on which Seattle appeared in 2010 to compile what a City of Seattle Personal Ad would be like.
This had me wondering if I had enough creative juice to conjure up what a City of Fort Worth Personal Ad would be like.
This might be difficult to conjure due to the fact that Fort Worth does not show up on all that many of those type lists. And the ones it does show up on are usually not all that flattering.
Or it is some bogus thing.
Like a D.C. lobbying group, naming Fort Worth as one of the Ten Most Livable Communities in America. Which had Fort Worth, without looking too closely at the validity of the 'award,' having a city-wide celebration to celebrate this tremendous honor, while other, more informed places, like Tacoma and Pierce County, politely said thank you and then ignored it. With no city-wide celebration.
I'll see if I can come up with a City of Fort Worth Personal Ad. Later today. If I have the energy.
