Another beautiful day in Eugene. Started cool/overcast but was pure sun by noon. Weird day: TONS of paperwork, had to refer one of my patients to a psychologist because...well, she's a bit nuts. I have to do this maybe once every 2-3 months. Good thing I've got a real awesome guy to send 'em to.

Ran with Jeff at lunch. Been thinking A LOT about telling 'em I want to stay. Jeff's a little nutty, so I knew I would tell Christy (the more cold, calculating businesswoman) first. It was weird, though, Jeff's like a faithful canine, he knew something was up: "Something on your mind?"

"Nope!" ;-)

Good run through the park on the paved path. These runs have been a lot faster since (A) I'm more efficient and (B) he's getting back in shape. We'd been doing 6:50/mi recently, but today we split a 6:42, followed by a 6:37 - bonafide tempo pace for Jeff. We slowed up for the last 2K back to the office, but not much.

Long afternoon at work. Then I told Christy I wanted to stay. Problem: they already hired another guy, who's moving from NM to take the job! Uh-oh. So we spent about 15min talking about how that might possibly work, since we don't have enough business to necessitate another FT. This might include me being a "resident" with Mike Baum, *my PT*, which would be a nice consolation to NOT going to Vallejo (he worked there for like, 9 years). Ughzies...so a lot of uncertainty....
