As of yesterday afternoon we have a functioning vehicle again, which meant that I was able to run this morning! I did my 5-mile loop and it felt good -- no aches or pains or tired muscles or excessive humidity. What's more, I think the season of Amanda's Excessive Allergies may have passed. Cause for celebration all around, don't you think?

Also, I think you should all know that I'm playing fetch with my cat as I type this post. If you would like to see a video in which she (rather than I) is doing most of the running, check out my video of the two of us playing fetch in my first Tucson apartment.
