My walk was very uneventful. It was raining, and it was cold. I went up to Lincoln Park where I walked around for about an hour or so. I didn't exactly take a lot of pictures, as that struck me as being somewhat against the nature of the assignment, which is to get detached.

One of the photos that I did take was of a little chickadee which did not want to be photographed. If you look very closely you can see him in about the very center of the page. His distinctive white mask is what stands out. (He's facing the left, if that helps). He was with a flock of little chickadees in this bush that were all cheeping at each other and at me for the few minutes that I stood there watching them.

When I got to Lincoln Park, I ended up walking the course of the XC race that I ran this year, and I took the time to take a photo of the finish between the two trees. XC was fun, even if the constant shin pain that I suffered was, to put it mildly, terrible. 

While XC is fun, my main sport is definitely baseball. I cannot wait for the season to start, and I probably spent most of my time reflecting on the fact that this is my last year, and what that means.

"ENTJs have a natural tendency to marshall and direct. This may be expressed with the charm and finesse of a world leader or with the insensitivity of a cult leader." I'm not sure that I like being compared to a cult leader but OK...




"ability may be expressed as salesmanship, story-telling facility or stand-up comedy. In combination with the natural propensity for filibuster, our hero can make it very difficult for the customer to decline." Well, I'm not exactly a comedian.


"ENTJs are decisive. They see what needs to be done, and frequently assign roles to their fellows. Few other types can equal their ability to remain resolute in conflict, sending the valiant (and often leading the charge) into the mouth of hell." This seems to be more like me than the other descriptions.


"When challenged, the ENTJ may by reflex become argumentative. Alternatively (s)he may unleash an icy gaze that serves notice: the ENTJ is not one to be trifled with." Yeah, this is definitely me. Though I am curious as to what they mean by challenged. Do they mean when someone asks why they believe something and they respond or when they are struggling with an activity and feel forced to take it out on others...
