Journal 18

Yesterday I need to go for a run to clear my head. I really just needed to pound out all my energy just by running, but i wasn't going to be able to do that because my old fat and lazy dog decided to follow me and I couldn't leave him behind not know if he was going to get hit by a car or something, plus i love that dog to death and it would hurt me even more if i just left him wondering why i didn't wait for him. So i just jogged by his side. At some point I ran a little a head of his and went around a corner of my road. When I realized he wasn't behind me I stopped and waited for him. It was around 6 when i went running to the sun was setting and everything was bathed in the warm light of the setting sun. As I waited in the shade I watched as he came around the corner and was bathed patchy sun that shone through the leaves and lighting up his fur. His mouth was open and his tongue drooping out but he looked like he was smiling. Casteel actually gives advice on how to get your dog to smile and he says to take your dog on a long walk to get them tired, but that it makes them happy and I wish that I could have had a camera built into my eyes so that i could take a picture of that picture perfect moment of my goofy old dog trying to jog with me. I forgot me camera at home, because who jogs with a huge camera around their neck? I would have used a a shutter speed around a hundred or so and opened my aperture a little bit more to let in light but not to wash out anymore detail that was already being watched out from the sun.
