Today, so far, is not what I expected or wanted.
Off on my run in the morning dark. Hit the University grounds just as something internal hit me. No warning, then suddenly a desparate desire to have a little sit down on a porcelain chair, if you know what I mean. The kind where one dare not take a step, then it subsides a bit, a quick waddle, then have to freeze again....repeat many times.
All the usual always-open University doors were locked, it being both Saturday and Dec. 24th. After a bit I gave up on that. Luckily nature lightened her gut grip somewhat, and I ran on to the nearest Starbucks.
I must say that it felt very relaxing for me there, and there had been no poo-tastrophie.
From the Starbucks I felt like walking, and it was pleasant to do so. I felt like saying to the people I passed, "Look at me, walking like a normal person."
I am a 68 year old retired teacher living on the west coast of Canada. I spent over 30 years as a student of Karate until my knees stopped liking it. My current passionate activity is Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, which I've been at for about 13 years.
