My run this evening down Central Avenue coincided with this huge classic car parade thing. It's not the first time I've timed this badly, and it's really not conducive to a proper run. People set up folding chairs on the sidewalks and fill the Park Central lot with their cars for other people to circle and admire. As this is happening, still more people drive their cars up and down the street, revving the engines and showing off and generally being obnoxious, although the cars are, admittedly, mostly awesome. Not awesome, however, is having to wind your way through chairs, coolers, and persons aimlessly milling about. Also not great to find yourself on the verge of being run over by a classic car or two every time you cross another street. I suppose if you were going to get run over, though, you might as well go down in a blaze of glory under the super-shiny tires of a '69 Corvette.

Meanwhile, Simon is rolling and scratching and persistently trying to chew a hole through the rug in the living room. I should address this.

Also, kudos for attempting the run, even though it didn't really go as planned. :)

He is perhaps the best <3

The run got a little crazy, I'm not going to lie. I ended up veering over to 3rd Avenue and navigating the maze of parking lots and lack of sidewalks at St. Joe's just to avoid the crowds on the way back :/ Little too much commotion for my liking.

ill-planned runs are so annoying. i seem to be making a habit of those recently but at least you persisted!

that first picture particularly is making me smile like an idiot. he looks like he's about 5 years old, trying to impress his kindergarten teacher. bless.

I took a detour on the way home because I couldn't stand the thought of dealing with the crowds again! But yeah, once I start I usually try to stick it out, whatever happens.

Don't you just love his little face? I want to pat him on the head. He's just cute, basically.
