I feel like today went well. The sun was shining when I woke up, and I thought to myself, "Let's do something today." It was really gorgeous outside, mid-fifties in temperature, slight breeze ... I decided to attempt that six mile walk again, and I did much better with pain this time around. Hardly any discomfort, compared to last time! I prepared by dosing up on two Advil before I left, and I chose an even slower pace that added fifteen/twenty minutes to each leg of the trip; had I not been walking in a straight line, I could've been called "meandrous." I probably qualified for "amazing slowpoke," but the weather was so nice I was not inspired to increase my speed.

Other victories today included: obtaining an "advantage card" for the grocery store chain here, setting up a checking account at a local bank, and finding boxes of Cadbury Creme Eggs (four per box) on sale for 99 cents each.
