After being sick all week, and having a crazy schedule due to cancellations and whatnot, I managed to just go out and enjoy a beautiful Adriatic afternoon. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/913916714\" target=\"_blank\">What a run<\/a>, although I was reminded why I prefer to run up to Barletta and back instead. I think tomorrow morning I should try and get up early, get my run in and then go to the beach for a bit. It&#8217;s that time of year already.<br \/>\nSo some good happened, Donnie and his buddies running the shit-show failed to get rid of what&#8217;s actually a popular law, if you don&#8217;t call it &#8220;Obamacare&#8221;. The touted &#8220;Trumpcare&#8221; replacement, which they had 7 years to work on, but literally threw together in a few weeks, and introduced 17 days ago failed miserably. It is a testament to how much these people are disinterested in governing, and are only interested in winning and making money. Until you really get involved, it won&#8217;t change.<br \/>\nMeanwhile, I wont lie today, I was sore and tired, it has been a long week. But I managed to pull through. Kept thinking about just being better today. Also thought about exes. Remember, just because someone&#8217;s good to you, even most of the time, if they abuse you they are abusive. Never put up with someone who hits or harms you, who makes you feel like your feelings aren&#8217;t valid. Someone who preys on your insecurities as a way to cover their own. Beware those who say they love you just as you are, yet demand you change everything about yourself. People who feign interest in the things you like and manipulate you into just doing what they want. People who threaten you with their &#8220;desirability&#8221;. That one needs some explaining maybe. &#8220;Well, this person wanted me, and blah blah blah, lots of people want me&#8221; I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ve heard some version of that at some point. Yep, generally, more than one person will be attracted to you, to anyone. Throwing it in your partner&#8217;s face, when your partner is doing everything they can to be there for you, is abusive. If you don&#8217;t appreciate what your partner is doing for you, don&#8217;t get pissed at them and be shitty with things like that.<br \/>\nI was all over the place on my run today, I think because my mind is still all cloudy from being sick. I have to get my shit together and get to the store though, because I need eggs and juice for the morning, well and I&#8217;ll probably use an egg for dinner tonight and make me some tofu cutlets. So a walk to the store is in my immediate future, followed by cooking dinner. It&#8217;s good stuff.<br \/>\nBefore you know it, I will be on my way back to the US to do some Summer things. Renew my license, get my motorcycle endorsement, see some family. Then back here for work. As much as I don&#8217;t want to step foot in the US right now given we&#8217;re being occupied by Russia, I need a valid license. I simply don&#8217;t have the money to do that here. It&#8217;s horribly expensive. They make getting a license a real burden here. Damned if I do, damned if I don&#8217;t! haha!<br \/>\nAlright, I&#8217;m going to run and get the rest of this day done!<br \/>\n<iframe allow=\"autoplay\" class=\"youtube_embed_iframe\"    allowFullScreen=\"true\" style=\"width:640px; height:385px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IpgfczSz8GU?autoplay=0&theme=dark&loop=0&fs=1&showinfo=1&modestbranding=0&iv_load_policy=1&color=red&autohide=1&disablekb=0&enablejsapi=1&version=3\"><\/iframe><br \/>\nHave fun, keep running, and remember; if Gil can run then so can you!<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-pinterest-1307\" class=\"share-pinterest sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1307&amp;share=pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Pinterest\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-facebook-1307\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1307&amp;share=facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Facebook\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-reddit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-reddit sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1307&amp;share=reddit\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Reddit\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#\" class=\"sharing-anchor sd-button share-more\"><span>More<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><div class=\"sharing-hidden\"><div class=\"inner\" style=\"display: none;\"><ul><li class=\"share-email\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-email sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1307&amp;share=email\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to email this to a friend\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to email this to a friend (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-twitter-1307\" class=\"share-twitter sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1307&amp;share=twitter\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Twitter\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><li class=\"share-print\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-print sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1307\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to print\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to print (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-tumblr\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-tumblr sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1307&amp;share=tumblr\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Tumblr\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><li class=\"share-linkedin\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-linkedin-1307\" class=\"share-linkedin sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1307&amp;share=linkedin\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on LinkedIn\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow, I went down to Bisceglie (BEE-shell-yay) and back.
