Today’s run: 3.14 miles, 32:28 minutes. YT: 187.79. Oscar c”Up”cakes and chardonnay made for a slow run on a nevertheless incredible morning. The sun shines even on the sluggish.
Ever put your foot on the floor to keep the room from spinning when you’re drunk? That’s what my rumpled, yellow-eyed black cat has been for me. Through three major breakups, umpteen minor ones, several jobs and a thousand different moods (both mine and his, in fact), he’s never missed a meal.
If I move to New York, my furry whale on white paws will probably stay in Los Angeles.
To be without him is to squarely face the reality of change. Thankfully, running seems to offer a new through line.

What or who helps you deal with change and “letting it all flow through”?
He is so beautiful…
What helps me– 1. my wonderfully supportive friends. 2. Crying (not easy for me, so when I get there it feels really good usually) 3. Laughing about anything 4. Dancing or fast walking (I’d run too if it weren’t for the sensitive knee) 5. Long soaking baths. 6. Beauty– flowers, nature, poetry, art…
Cute photo. So you’re thinking of moving out East, eh? That would be a big change. Who has helped me to deal with change? The Sheep Man. :)
Kate: I am with you on the crying. nature’s version of ‘ludes.
Keith: Duh. :-)
Those are four very important furry pawed reasons you need to STAY in LA. Eight furry reasons!
