Oh the exhilaration of running in the actual daylight.  I have really missed being able to see the river, trail, leaves, fields, etc.  It was utter desolation today.  That's the way I prefer the trail; just me and the occasional crack dealer or vagrant.   Truly, I prefer them to cranky, entitled, retirees.  It was a bleak, beautiful November day.  When I got back I got an email showing the finished production for this commercial I shot with my son a while ago (I sometimes get voice over and corny tv/internet gigs--Don't laugh, it pays for lego sets and trips to Austin).  Anyway, my son has been taunting me ever since with a line from the filiming (it shows kids jumping on a trampoline in back while I say "I'm a Mom who wants everything for my kids....blah, blah, blah").  So on certain ocassions, he'll say "So, are you a Mom who wants everything for her kids or not?".  It's become a private joke.  Here's the great news.  Now I have a copy of the produced spot-- so next time he pulls that line on me or threatens to write a "Mommy Dearest Memoir" I can offer to show the commercial to all his girlfriends for the next 20 years. I'll point out he's the one in the background with floppy surfer hair doing a flip on the trampoline.
