It's an absolutely gorgeous day. I'm typing from our balcony, sitting in the sun. Panda is out here with me, on her ridiculous little harness and leash, and loving every second of it...she throws herself down on the wood and writhes along it as if it were covered in catnip. She loves watching the birds, and the landscapers, and whoever else is out and about in the complex. She also gets herself hopelessly tangled in the patio furniture every 5 minutes or so, but she usually figures out how to get herself out again.
Running was nice today...it seems like the entire town is enjoying the day. My route, which is normally pretty deserted, was full of people walking their dogs and women with strollers. It made me want a puppy, but not a baby. Speaking of which, I applied for a job on base today that sounds pretty awesome (as far as "Non-permanent jobs that do not remotely apply to my degree" go). It's a Monitor position at one of the elementary schools or preschools on base. As far as I can tell it's like being a shepherd to a flock of children...line them up for recess, make sure no one is making handprints in their mashed potatoes or throwing kids off the jungle gym, and watch for escape artists to take the wrong bus. I could totally do all of that.
And now off to the store with me. Wouldn't you know, that damn stability ball I bought is missing the foot pump you used to inflate it...apparently someone opened the box and stole it well before I made my purchase. Why anyone would need a low powered foot pump is anyone's guess.
