I have a guilty pleasure. No, it is not watching cheesy Zombie films or the grilled PB and 'nana sandwiches, I have NO guilt in those. My guilty pleasure is: I look forward to Thursdays.
A LOT
Why a weekday that is more or less still in the middle of the week? Not quite the end, but much more than the beginnings? I could wax philosophically and say that this is the stage I find myself currently in life, but that would be not quite the truth.
I like Thursdays because...
...I LOVE MY WIFE!
Odd, you say, that the manifestation of my love is strongest on a Thursday? Oh, no. I love my wife and her perspectives on things. I fell in love with her when we were attending a Bible Study together 19 years ago while I was in the military stationed at Fort Benning, Georgia.
Occassionally, she would lead and we would have "Cheri's 30 seconds with God." (Simple reminders such as like a tube of tooth paste, we need to be squeezed to get the good stuff out).
Anyway, on Thursdays, she is the featured blogger at Middle Places, and I look forward to reading her posts and gaining insight to life through her eyes. I find myself on many occasions weeping like a child at her words. She truly amazes me.
CONTINUALLY
So there you have it, why Thursday is my guilty pleasure.

It was a dark and stormy night... A Little homage to Snoopy there, but it truly is a dark and stormy morning: cold, rainy, and dreary all the way. But maintaining a positive attitude and quoting a little sign I read yesterday "There is no bad weather, just different types of good weather." And another that read: : "I run because... ...I get to be the weirdo running in the rain and snow". I liked that one best. Bring on the weirdness!! So it was a good day for a run.
Only a half mile today due to conditions. Not for me, for the drivers sliding around the roads and sidewalks. My safety took precedence.
I love you.
