I couldn’t sleep much through the night. I woke up around 3:30am and have been up and cooking of all things. I just had a bowl of spaghetti with sun dried tomatoes and Parmesan cheese. Random, I know. The title of my last posting must have been a future clue of some kind. I just finished watching “Good Morning America.” I am so sad to hear about the cyclone which hit Myanmar. The death toll is at 22,000 and climbing. I hope aid is able to get to those in need a.s.a.p. I can’t believe the gas prices in the U.S. (and Australia) at the moment. I will need a car when I return to Michigan, but I’m not sure how I will manage all the costs, especially given all the fuel price increases. I found the short coverage of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska to be educational. The ongoing drilling controversy makes me wonder about our nation’s priorities and I’m curious about how far we have come regarding research and practice on fuel alternatives. Showers are expected today in the Melbourne area. Boo! Pluto and I have been caught out in the rain twice on our runs so far this week, which wasn’t fun.
