5K is the only thing on my calendar at this point. Girl Talk show would be a blast, but ticket market is way above the price I want to pay.

The Marathon is probably going to jam up downtown - tho I feel like I should take advantage of Federal Hill while I am still welcome there thanks to that idiotic parking regulation that's coming.

Well, tomorrow I'll be seeing the g/f off as she runs the Baltimore Marathon, at 6:30am. So I'll be hanging out with her dad for about 4 hours. I wonder if Sliders is open that early...

Going to Atmosphere. Won't be wearing sandals.
Oh, and I'm not too happy about the $22 ticket price. Hope it's worth it.
