So, this is today's run "in heaven"

Three miles on the treadmill in 30:59. Yeah, yeah, I know I'm slow, but it's *kinda* fast for me. I recently bought a Garmin Forerunner 205, which makes me run outside more (I'm not always a huge fan of nature), but today's run was inside, at home, on the treadmill. It was raining and my creature comfort trumped gadget geekness. Plus, my usual neighborhood running route goes right by my chiropractor's office... since I cancelled my appointment tonight, I didn't want to risk "being sighted."

I have a portable DVD player set up on the shelf by my treadmill and it is a godsend! Today's viewing enjoyment was a concert DVD of the local indie band "7th Heaven." They're my recent obsession. John and I went to Wells Street Art Festival on Sunday, and they played there. We saw them at Festa Italiana last year and really liked them, and I liked them even more this time. We followed the crowd and at lead singer Keith Semple's request, got right smack up in front of the stage (I coulda touched them if I wanted to... and I kinda did want to... but I was a lady and kept my hands to myself). I fear I may turn into a groupie. All of the guys in this group are beyond gorgeous!! During one of the songs-- gasp-- the lead singer locked eyes with me!!!! Yes, I'm old enough to have been his babysitter... and I know enough about marketing to know they get paid to engage the audience... Still, it was H-O-T!!! And they helped me get thru my run tonight. So thank you, 7th Heaven. Here's their website if you want to check them out (and you should): http://7thheavenband.com/
