I swallowed three cranberry supplement pills (for my crappy kidneys) with coffee (which causes my kidneys to be crappy). Haha.

I started The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas but the next day another book came in the mail. It's the second in The Wheel of Time series I'm reading. They are addictive reads. This one is called The Great Hunt. I reluctantly set aside The Count and started on The Hunt Friday. There are eleven in the series so far with the twelve to be released in three different parts, starting this November. It's a massive work. The books are at least 700 pages each and the last is supposed to be well over 1400 (which is why its split into three).

Almost done with school and work. Just have to stay focused long enough to pass everything and write a bunch of papers.

I still have weird aches and pains all over my body from exercising. I've tapered off my routines to rest up for this trip but still...my lower back is sore from some new exercises Thursday, I'm not certain if my knee is ready for running again, my shin splints are gone...I think, and I woke with a really tight upper back this morning. Maybe I should get a massage before I go.

Everything is winding down, the trip is getting closer...
