Getting there. Life is crazy. Life is strange.

I tried moving around a bunch of stuff from one database to another, cleaning up my server, etc. Somehow I managed to bonk the permissions on WP and lock myself out. I am still here, still trying to keep the site alive. Running has been slow since the half marathon – running two halfies in two weeks was a little tough on the body. Mostly, 13.1 miles on pavement was tough on me – despite doing it in the FiveFinger KSOs.

Immediately after the Detroit Half, I spent a week battling H1N1, missing a few days of work and being generally miserable. The wife had it, too.

We’re both better now. I’m wrapping up a bunch of freelance work, getting back into the swing of things. This was the first weekend I didn’t work straight through, and it feels refreshing to have days off here and there, like normal folks sometimes do. It also felt great to get out for some lovely Michigan Fall running. The leaves are all on the ground and the trails sound different with the sound of my feet sloshing around dead leaves. But it is beautiful, as always. Winter running is ahead of us, and it is my favorite season for the trails – bar none.
