For anyone who played the recorder at school.
Just perfect.

Today I am 12,000 days old. The 90 days of this year so far have been ok.
Exercise
I ran 140 miles.
My pace isn’t great; my best run was probably a 7 miler where I averaged 8:30 miles. On the Bath half I crumbled over the last few miles and ended up average 9:45 miles. I’ve got the Warwick half on Sunday, it’ll be the first half that I’ve run by myself so I’ll see how it goes.
Oddly, I feel like I’ve been exercising less. I think I’ve been running for longer distances less frequently.
Days out
Warwick Castle. Charlecote. Oxford. I met a very little lamb, some giant rabbits and a turkey near York. Haven’t had many new experiences, though I’ve been generally keeping myself busy. Could do with some new adventures; I’m thinking it might be fun to round up all my little people and take them to the zoo for my birthday.
Home
Something made Milly very anxious a couple of months ago and she licked her legs bare but the fur seems to be growing back now.
The garden is looking pretty decent, certainly ready for some planting.
I’ve neglected the stack of boxes Mum and Dad dropped off containing the contents of my bedroom at home (I’m almost certain it’s mostly stationary).
Input
I’ve been pretty good at only watching things I want to watch (I can’t remember the last time I just put the TV on and flicked channels). I hit a bit of a wall on the reading front, Station Eleven was very clever but I found it tough to get through.
I currently have a surfeit of comics, games and films. I need to reduce spending and increase consumption.
Favourite things
Goals
For the next few months I think:
Davos, no!
Resisting the temptation to pause this and go through frame by frame…
Edit: Resistance is futile. I know I was a little disappointed but that doesn’t appear to have dampened by excitement for this one. Squeee!

Perfect.
Sword Art Online is Better Than Life. With swords.
After dabbling in Attack on Titan I think I’m steadily getting into anime. AoT was good. Though not very nice. And there was a lot of shouting.
I’m not hooked by any means but Sword Art Online reminds me a lot of cartoons I’d watch as a kid and makes me want to play RPGs!
In possibly related news I’ve found a swordfighting class.
