Snakes and Arrows Live

This evening I picked up the new Rush CD "Snakes and Arrows Live".  It is from the Rotterdam show last fall.  I got to see them last summer in Indianapolis (Noblesville actually).  I've seen Rush on every tour ever since the "Hold Your Fire" tour March of 1988.  Favorite band of all time.  They'll be back in Indy June 26th, but I may still be on vacation out of town at that point, so I may not go. 

The last two days I've put three hours on the Octane.  I've run really hard the last two weeks, putting in 108 miles.  I ran really hard Wednesday and Thursday of last week.  Then ran hard again on Sunday, running 10 miles under 1:06 with the last five miles just a hair under 31 minutes.  So, Monday and today, I've really felt it in my sacrum area and have definite inflammation and irritation everywhere.  I took a hot bath and used our massager and it feels much better right now.  Gotta be careful.

Tonight, on American Idol, we got to see one of my co-workers and her husband in the audience as they watched his brother, David Cook perform.  Their family is facing some very serious challenges right now, and it is great to see that it was made possible for them to be able to see David perform.
