Why why why

You're just saying goodbye
to people whose every word is just a lie
And you wonder just a little if your soul isn't starting to die
And you spend every waking moment wondering why

And so this was the song on repeat this evening. It's funny how different music speaks to you at different times. Always a solace. Today's run almost didn't happen - I spent the greater part of the day sawing and hauling branches from my neighbors tree. It's a charitable act I do once a year or so so as to avoid having to politely request that she keep her goddam trees from invading my yard and clogging my pool filter. So needless to say I was tired and it was quite a workout in itself. But it was such a beautiful evening that I wanted to get out and do what I could. This resulted in a surprisingly enjoyable run and I actually did 3.5, so a good start to the week.
