This is a really cool web site (thanks to Sarah's sis Katie). You type in a zip code and it narrows into where that code is located.

Yesteday, I ended up playing hooky after all. Mostly because I was in a meeting with my boss, and I couldn't just get up and leave, (especially since they were discussing a white paper I wrote earlier). I apparently missed nothing good, except that we're having a test next Thursday. Just what I need. At work, I actually have a lot to do this week for the first time in over a month. Go me!

Because I played hooky, I got home from work at a reasonable hour. So I went running, which has completely messed up my schedule. I would normally have gone running this morning, but since I went last night, I have to wait until tonight. Plus, I can never force myself to run as far or as fast after work as I do in the morning (not that I ever run very far or very fast), so I always feel kind of crummy after I run. I did register for my first 10K, which will be at the end of the month. I am more than a bit worried about the whole thing because I am so slow. I usually finish with the walkers when I'm doing a 5K. Well, I find it unlikely that there will be any walkers for the 10K, so I dread the idea of finishing dead last - I had a nightmare last night that I finished 20 minutes behind the person in front of me. Hopefully it won't be *that* bad.

In appalling news, a pharmacist at a Texas Eckerd's refused to fill a prescription for the morning after-pill for a rape victim on "ethical grounds". What b*llshit. It doesn't seem very ethical to me that some pharmacist can mess with your life like that. Anyway, she got it filled at a competing drugstore. But I'm sure there are plenty of small towns in Texas where this wouldn't be an option.
