Another run at the gym... I'm getting a little better at mornings, but not as good as I need to be. Sometimes zoning out on the treadmill is not too bad. I guess that's what tonight was... It's a bit like moving meditation. Took the scissors to my hair last night, again probably not the best thing to do but my hair was really bugging me. LOL No one at work or home commented so it either looks so bad they didn't want to say anything or I didn't change it to bad. Oh and I got a new headlight...if I get up in time tomorrow I will try it out.

Let's see the new headlamp and hairdo! I need to get early morning running gear. Where do you go to get that stuff?

Cool! I took a pic. of you finishing the Ragnar leg in triumph. Don't know how to post it here. You cut your own hair? Wow! very cool and brave!

Benn, I got my new headlight at Target. I'll let you know if I like it. It's not one of the really cool ones, but it's pretty small and I think it will be OK.

Smooth... I'm a computer dork, I have posted a picture once or twice but I really can't remember how. Cutting my own hair is just out of frustration with it. I will have to go had have it fixed by someone who knows what they are doing soon.

I think you're brave to cut your own hair. I'm really bad at cutting hair.

I hope you get to try out the headlight tomorrow. I was thinking you'd have to get up really really early to do that, but I guess it gets light a little later in Utah than it does here.

To post a picture here you have to post it on some other website. I use flickr.com. Then you link to the url of your picture on the other site. It's not the same button as you use to do a hyperlink, but it's next to it. I can't remember what it looks like right now.
