Why I Didn’t Write Today
No Comments

I slept in this morning until 8:30AM, which isn’t that bad until I remember that that’s really 11:30AM for me. I went for a run today on the same route that I’ve run for the past three days. I ran to the town of Skykomish which is a little railroad town that I can’t quite figure out. There’s a train station, a few stores, a little hotel that’s being rebuilt, and a high school, even though the town seems to small to support one.

The path that I run along the highway does not feel safe at all but I guess I’m at the stage of running where I need to do it. It feels odd if I go a few days without doing it, so I went on mapmyrun and found a route that would work.

We played a game called Timeline, then we went on a hike and saw a bunch of different waterfalls along a body of water called – no joke – Deception Creek.

We came back here, ate dinner, and played Celebrity (whatever you call it – that game where you get a minute to get your teammates to guess a name, then you get one word, then charades… I’ve heard it called Sir Francis Drake, too). We’re all by the fire right now. Outside you can look up and see stars but also see that haze of the Milky Way.

Tomorrow we go back to Seattle. My girlfriend and I are staying in a hotel somewhere for the night before hitting up a nice Air B ‘n B.

I’m tired and it’s 2:00AM Eastern Time. No one is going to read this post but that’s cool. Sometimes this blog is like flossing. You get to the end of the day and you say to yourself, “I’m just going to brush my teeth and go to bed,” but then you get there and you see that floss and you can’t think of a reason not to floss, do you know what I mean? Does that make any sense?
