I Promise I'm Not Dead (Stacey)

I've only been lacking motivation to write.

My runs have all been largely uneventful but successful so I decided not to bore you with more posts like the Memorial Day one.

However, I have encountered some fun animal life due to where I live.

For example:
- A deer crossed the road about 40 feet in front of me once. That was kind of cool. She also seemed fairly uninterested in me because I was clearly not coming at her very quickly.

- I nearly ran on a snake. Yeah, no joke. I literally had to hop to my right really quickly because I looked down at my feet and realized something with eyes was looking back at me. It left me alone though. So that's nice.

- I got chased down by a German Shepard "puppy". I don't buy puppy though . . . that thing was at least up to my knees. I'm betting a year old. Thankfully the owner was outside with him though. And advised me to stop running because he likes to chase things, but "I promise he doesn't bite!" So comforting. Needless to say, I might be adjusting my 3 mile route . . . .

- We have some weird spiders wandering about our roads. Generally if I ever have cause to look at my feet I can catch a few moving around. Euh . . . reason #23 for never running barefoot out here.

- I ran around a dead squirrel the other day . . . YAY ROADKILL!

So anyway, that's all I can think of in terms of animals . . . . I'm noticing a theme here those between these notes and Kelsey's problem with the bird . . . .

I really don't like animals . . .
