Saturday, March 25

Saturday, I hadn't signed up for any of the morning sessions for the conference so that I could have a bit of a weekend to myself. I slept in very late and went for an hour-long run up north. It was beautiful and felt amazing to finally have a long overdistance run again. I need to do that more often because I can explore the city and get a long run in as well. It feels so good.

I planned to see "Stick Fly" at 8, but I didn't plan very well ahead transportation wise. I left our apartment at 7:30 and didn't even get to the train stop until nearly 8. I would have had to take a bus another 11 blocks from the station to get to the show, so I just turned around and went back on the train. That was disappointing because I was looking forward to seeing the show, but I didn't know if I'd get anything out of it if I was 45 minutes late. On my train ride home, I was "stalked" by two younger boys, brothers. Cute kids, and I talked to them a little bit on the train. It didn't look like they were up to anything bad, but it did seem like there was potential...probably bored kids looking for something to do. One of them looked about 14 and the younger brother, all pimped out with earrings and cornrows looked about 11 or 12. I came back to the apartment and watched French Kiss with the girls.
