Long Walk today

Had a good long walk this afternoon. Walked with A and Z from the end of the Jail Trail up over the bridge and around the South Side Works. It was a nice little walk. Weather was good, and it was good to get out for a stretch after fighting with my lab all day. Strolled around Joseph Beth Booksellers and grabbed dinner to go at Qboda. The only downsides were when A was almost hit by a car while we were crossing in a crosswalk and as we were crossing the bridge to get back to the jail trail, Z was asleep until a fire truck with full lights and sirens crossed underneath us. She wasn't thrilled with the sirens as a wakeup.

But dinner was tasty and the walk was nice. Probably something good to repeat this summer! Maybe even take the longer walk and start from home.

Out and about

Went out for a walk with Z this evening. Had a great walk. We went down to the park, strolled for a bit and came back. Out for around 40 minutes. I enjoyed getting out of the house, and I think she did too. I suspect if I walk with her anywhere she wouldn't care, so long as I didn't pause during the walk.

A few of the DeveloperWorks Editors spoke at our dept meeting to talk about opportunities to write for DW. As this year is the year of IC, I definitely want to take advantage of the opportunity. Fortunately it sounds like there could be some good opportunities for me.
