Besides teaching us that spinach is a performance enhancement drug (PED), Popeye also spouted words of wisdom inbetween thrashings and toots of his pipe. This includes the well-sung “Leave Well Enough Alone…” (even if apparently it’s sung by a parrot… I could’ve sworn it was Popeye himself who sung it and punctuated the beats with a TOOT-TOOT… memory is a funny thing).
Unfortunately, my hosting account for runkevinrun.com is up for renewal… and with it I’ve reached the end of the promotional pricing. The cost per month jumps 300% to their regular rates… hence I’m looking at an alternative.
I can actually cut the monthly price down to a ridiculously low, low price of $1.04 per month for 36 months… so that’s what I’m doing. But it also requires migrating this website and all its content to a new hosting company… and I have no idea how well that will work.
I recently got a new laptop and just transferring over files from my old machine to the new one has been a hair-pulling sequence of frustratingly futile foul ups. So, ya know, virtual internet servers should be ever so much easier, right?
Leave well enough alone (squawk, squawk!)
Leave well enough alone (snort, snort!)
I’ve got my bottle and bread
And a roof over my head.
Leave well enough alone (honk, honk!)
Why should I want to roam?
I know me stuff
And I’m smart enough
To leave well enough alone!
And yet I’m not smart enough. I’m kicking the hornet’s nest. That always ends well, right?

Running notation aside — this morning due to jetlag I was out for my 10-miler shake out at 4 AM. I passed this billboard for “Stranger Things” that yesterday was perfectly illuminated. Today it seemed to mock me for overindulging in food stuffs and for my slow pace in the dark of the morning:
Dark skies at night? What’s that mean for sailors, Popeye?
Note to self: eat more spinach.
