Packing
Packing is a pain in my ****! I'm trying to throw away as much as possible, but it just isn't working out very well. I have way too much stuff. A lot of it is fairly worthless, but I just can't tear myself away. My problem is that I am going to have to get a storage unit at a cost of about $75 per month, but I'm only storing about $500 worth of stuff, so in theory if I give it all away I would come out ahead after only 7 months! But I have just enough stuff that I really want to keep that I can't give it all away and end up with enough to not need storage, so then as long as I am getting storage anyway I don't want to give it away. But really who needs 25 years of National Geographic?
As for running, I have felt pretty good lately. Not much speedy running, but good mileage and no big pains. This means I am just enjoying my running. I have a couple races in mind, but nothing major so I think until I get settled in around Seattle I'll just keep doing what I'm doing.

You've been saving National Geographic since you were five?
