I'm the Master of the Universe.

I went running along the waterfront today. It was warm, but a little cloudy. I actually enjoyed running for a few fleeting moments. There were Canada Gooses in the water. There was a raging beer fest on the opposite shore. I was criss-crossing through people walking and passing them. I ran over the Willamette and felt energized. It was a great few minutes. I wish I had the stamina to maintain it and could have kept running for hours without tiring. But, alas, I tired. I walked past most of the beer fest. Drunken happy couples, circles of friends eating in the grass, the dull roar of thousands of people standing in line. I ran again to get away from it and back on a bridge where I was once again a Master of the Universe.
