I woke up this morning, not wanting to look out the window in case the Grey clouds had deiced to stay another day in wellington. Against my will, I had to rise to my feet and use the "toilet" as they would say here. Surprisingly as I opened my door, I could see the sun shining through every window! I grabbed my bible and another book, and sat in the sun shine as long as i could.
I had an appointment again with "Jess" today to get my bank account and other such things sorted out. I tried out a crazy colorful outfit, just to see how I would fit in. Here in Wellington people wear the strangest outfits, and everyone says no one cares. I did notice a few awkward stares...but for the most part I think my outfit did alright. I will continue trying to see how crazy it can get before people start to notice.
As I walked to Jessica's work, I noticed the whole work force had dropped everything and went to lay in the sun. I was wondering who were the un "lucky" ones who had to cover for the sun bathers? Everyone here also seems to jog/run all the time. I feel like I am more fit just by watching them all run past me. I almost feel like I don't really need to workout, since all of them are doing so well at it already.
After much hard work, and photo coping "Jess" and I finished everything up. The banker was quite the funny guy. I enjoyed his stories about Harry potter and the current books he is reading. I love people that aren't afraid to be friends with you, even when they hardly know your name.
Jessica had to finish up at work, so I headed back. Although i did mention the beautiful sunny weather earlier, it didn't last long. Clouds rolled in, and bringing along windy. I was walking past a group of workers and my skirt flew up in the air, and all the road work flew into my eyes. It was a great memory...not. As I made my way home i spotted my type of "runner". I had looked behind me and spotted a guy about my age, who just seemed to be walking slowly far behind me. I looked back forward, and continued walking. 3 minutes later, he comes running past. I kept my eye on him thinking he was a Laura runner. As soon as he got pretty much almost out of site...he stopped running. See That is how i run. I walk until I see people, then i jog way pass them tell I can hardly breathe then i spot and walk again...knowing that those people definitely thought i was fit. ha I just want to say " Keep up the good work running man.!"
