Just came back from a short run. I was definitely dehydrated and my legs felt sore the whole time. It was a physically exhausting work day and I think my body was a just too worn out for a productive run. Despite this, it was a pleasant run. The snow must have just started right before I went outside. It was coming down pretty hard yet there was no accumulation. At times snowy conditions certainly inhibit the enjoyment of a run, however there was no wind and the temperature was far from bitter. The snowflakes were the kind that playfully land on your eyelash. Also, due to the full moon, it was very bright out and you could see the snow fluttering down from high in the sky. A hidden benefit to having an extremely long workday is that the post-work sense of bliss that settles in every night allows you to appreciate subtleties that you wouldn’t normally take notice of. (it also enhances your vocabulary and your ability to write run-on sentences)
During the run I listened to more Arcade Fire. I couldn’t help but notice the snow references in the lyrics. I love when you are listening to music and the child inside you imagines that every move you make seems in-synch rhythmically and lyrically with the song, like you are the living music video for the song.
There is something about this song/video that is so unbelievably depressing and sad yet ultimately comforting.
That’s all for now.
