This time Ashley and I both found our place in the sun.

Ashley and I had found our place in the sun, and I wanted to document the event with a two-guy selfie, and I was trying to get Ashley to look at the camera (to limited success).

I had decided to do a different, dog-free run, but then at the last minute, Ashley seemed to really want to come along, so I did this run instead, and it was great. Not as far or as fast as I’d have run by myself, but great.

It was way too cold to try to get a picture of Ashley in her jacket. But I did want to report that she was a Very Good dog, and did the needful when I took her out in the bitter, bitter cold.
Since I was wearing a silk base layer, a mock-T, and my heavy Dale of Norway sweater under my Alaska pipeline coat, I was warm enough to stay outside for an extra three minutes, and shovel our little sidewalk.
I didn’t bother salting after. And these temperatures, what’d be the point?

Winston Churchill once said, “Nothing in life is so exhilarating as to be shot at without result,” but I think maybe Churchill had never had a dog pull hard on the leash while they were walking across an icy parking lot.

Ashley really wants to go for a long walk. But she doesn’t want to go for a walk in the outside that actually exists. She wants to go for a walk in some other outside—one where it’s not windy and snowing.

On the Internet EVERYBODY knows Ashley is a dog.

I’m trying to ramp up to two runs a week—a “long” run (currently anything over 4 miles), and a “fast” run (sometimes hill sprints, sometimes an interval session, sometimes—as today—just a shorter run where I press the pace).

Ashley is just back from a walk, just ate a bowl of food and had that bowl refilled, just drank from her water bowl, and had that bowl refreshed, just went out on the patio and returned, and just got a greenie as a treat.
So, I assume this posture means, “All is right with the world and I want for nothing.”

“How’s my pupper? Are you puptastic? I bet you are! There’s no pupper puptasticker than you! You’re the puptastickest!”
