Wow. I could not fall asleep last night. It was terrible. I had a late call from someone with some very disappointing news and was frustrated/angry/worried whatever.

At 3:30 I finally gave up and went for a run. Out on the southern parkway - nice and lonely. I felt like I could go long, but the race is a week ago, so I turned around and showered and was able to get a little sleep.

I was thinking about those bumper stickers you see everywhere - "26.2  = cheap therapy.'
