He took 11 seconds off his 400-meter times to set a new PR at 1:04 and then took 1:10 off his 1600-meter to set a new PR at 5:44. His goal entering the season was to run 1600 in under 6 minutes.

I take pride in the fact that I don't jump. I come from a long line of non-jumpers. We grew up in a town that was anti-jump. A local minister banned it. A teenager tried to overturn the ban but it turns out he was just really into dancing and he eventually won the town over with his sweet moves. It was fun. Everyone got together, we would cut loose, and kick off our Sunday shoes. It was wild when everybody cut footloose." </i></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">So to say I was a little perturbed that the doctor made me feel like it was my fault that the nostril numbing didn't go as well as he planned would be an understatement. </div><div style="text-align: left;">Eventually, he started using the lasers to reduce the nasal cavity inflammation and the side where I jumped was not fun because I could feel it every time he lasered me. </div><div style="text-align: left;">However, the doctor reassured me that if I really felt it then I would have been bouncing off the ceiling because it would have been that painful.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

You can call this the <a href="https://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/player/_/id/4433403/caitlin-clark">Caitlin Clark </a>effect. She's pretty awesome by the way. </li><li>It is not easy being a <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/2024/01/22/the-bills-are-cursed-after-another-missed-opportunityy-against-chiefs">Buffalo Bills </a>fan. </li><li>Every day around 10 pm I am shocked to learn it's only 6:24 pm. For the love of fat bassets, I need some sunshine to recharge my solar batteries. </li><li>Have you watched "Saltburn"? I can't say too much because it will spoil things but if you are easily grossed-out or offended then I would pass because this movie does that more than a few times. Twisted, cringy, and weird. A lot of folks are pretty divided on it but it just left me not wanting to take a bath any time soon. It's available to stream for free if you have <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Saltburn-Barry-Keoghan/dp/B0CGHHFGBS">Amazon Prime.</a> </li><li>I remember when snap, crackle and pop were the noises my cereal made and not my body when I get up in the morning. </li></ul><h3 style="text-align: left;">Meme dump</h3><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
