sensibility training
I wonder if such a thing exists...I feel like I haven't blogged any content in quite a few days. I've been posting random things but not much in terms of my thoughts on life. It's been a low key weekend which has been great. I am two finals away from tying up the semester and lacking the motivation to prepare for those finals. I will get my act together before the end of next week when I take said finals but I am not gonna lie, would prefer not to study for them.
Caleb and I went for a run yesterday in the Botanical Gardens and according to Nike+, ran 7.6 miles. Nice. Makes me feel that my goal to run a half marathon can be accomplished if I keep up my running and keep plugging away. I hope to come back from Christmas break able to run 9 miles comfortably.
Went to the Globe last night for the first time in a few weeks. It was so good to be back there. I found out it was voted Best Bar in Athens by Esquire Magazine back in 07 and top 3 in the state. Glad to hear it. During the night, the guys were joking around having a good time and making jokes that were slightly less than PC. One of the girls in my cohort told me I needed sensitivity training. I asked her what areas I should focus on and she said, "dealing with people different from you." I'd like to think I am pretty unique so I guess that means everyone. (The title stems from Steve today calling it sensibility training). So it made me stop and think about whether I really am an insensitive guy. I asked Kari and Caleb on the ride home (two of my closest friends here and they both agreed I can be insensitive at times.) I don't like to think of myself as insensitive and after asking dan his thoughts, am confident saying that I could be a bit more sensitive at times but am not in need of an intervention or anything even close.
But if you have different thoughts, let me know...
