So is Life

I didn’t run in the race, but controlled my disappointment by going and shooting skeet with my wonderful brother-in-law, Clark, who came to visit. My back was fussing at me pretty loudly when I got home, so I popped some pills the kind doctor prescribed and spent the rest of the day fixing fence. Although Jake found me pretty entertaining as I attempted to hammer nails while on drugs, I paid for it with horrible pain the following day. (My back seems to be fine now.)
