Well just about all 80 inches of snow (hey, it felt like it) are gone and my runs were very fun this week. First off, I found $7.65 so I am pretty excited about that. I do have to say that after change sits under snow, dirt and water for a couple weeks, it can be pretty dirty. Most of the money I found this week has some layers of grime on it. Believe me, I'm not complaining. Cash is cash.
As the snow was melting slowly over the week, I did find myself digging in it a little bit. I saw a dime and a few pennies seemlingly sitting on top of some snow as I was jogging along on Tuesday. But trying to pick it up was more difficult than I thought. It became a little bit of a vendetta with that change and I worked at if for about 20 seconds before getting the dime and one penny. I had to leave one of the pennies there, much to my heartbreak. As I stood back up to get going again, there was a guy right there apparently watching me the whole time while waiting for the bus. I just had to laugh and run on by. I'm 11 cents richer and you're not! (and I'll probably never see you again..)
The warmer weather seems to also have brought back out the walking singers. I love it when I run by someone who is singing with along with their ipod. They are having a blast and don't care what anyone else thinks. I talk to myself on occasion when I run (mainly in celeration of a good $ find), but I don't sing. Maybe I should start. If someone gives me an odd look, in two seconds I have passed them by. I'm pretty sure that if I started singing and running, one of the two would suffer greatly.
Other that that, I saw more gloves, tons of lighters, pens, chapstick, a notebook, a shovel broken into about 10 pieces and many other random stuff. Good times. Until next time folks, have a great week!
