What a Way...
You get so used to routine and BAM. Something screws it up. On Wednesday, I ran a beautiful 5.2ish miles outiside in the beautiful November weather the Midwest sometimes receives. It was to be my last in the gorgeous weather. Friday was BE-A-U-TIFUL and I could not get up off the couch. Moved to the bed and laid there for four days.
When can I run again?? I know it will not be today and will not be tomorrow. I feel like I am going to have to start over! I know that is not true, I will be able to pound out a few, but it feels like such a setback.
I have finals next week and had planned on studying and doing my research all weekend. That went out the window. Thank god finals were not this week, I would fail.
I am leaving work soon to go home and sleep and make mashed cauliflower with peas, carrot strips and some leftover turkey thrown in.

Gobble Gobble!
Plans:
- Gym
- Desert
- Pack
- Straighten Apartment
- Shower
- Take Family Photos for a friend
- MEET GIRLFRIENDS AT ANNUAL NBT BAR!!! (night before Thanksgiving=NBT)
I love NBT. Every year my highschool (some from junior high!) girlfriends and I get together at a townie bar back home and drink. EVERYONE who is ANYONE is there, so you always run into so many people. This year we have put a cap on the amount of booze, though...some were a little too hungover to enjoy their turkey last year! As for me, I have a run planned in the morning, so hopefully that will keep me somewhat on track. Not sure how far, I need to map out a course around my parents house.
Last night at the gym I took it easy on my running. Two slow miles on the treadmill, 2 miles=21.14. Still a little sore from the Turkey Trot on Sunday, but it is so much better after a day of rest and the heating pad.
Finals are coming up! ArG! need to get studying in....I am such a procrastinator! There is just so much to do, it is a little overwhelming.

The lady who I will no longer be sitting next to, THANK THE LORD, is the worst. She is random and talks about the weirdest things. The other day she walks by my desk and said, "My aunt weighs 72 pounds." Really? I mean, What!!!??? She is crazy. She just turned 50 and calls her "Mummiieee" every morning at 8 am and talks about her husband and her corns and her life and shit I DO NOT WANT to hear about. For reals, yo! ahahhaa. I am not gangsta, but I had to say that!

Time to...
Jimmy Johns for lunch today, very excited about that! They are painting the kitchen at work, so it is closed for the day.
Class last night was a bore...although the homework assignment I was freaking out about is postponed until next week. !!!!
Plan to do a 5 miler after work, but it will depend on how I feel. I really want to do it, but not at the expense of my health!
Drinking green tea at the moment,hope it will help! Who doesn't put a string on a tea bag? Whitefield Estates Green Tea, that's who. Annoying! Trying to get your fingers in the hot water to make the tea bag go up and down. I guess I could leave it alone, but I feel like I get more out of my tea if I move the bag around....????
My desk at work is overflowing with files and I cannot find the motivation to do the work to get them gone. Maybe I will call in on Friday, if I still feel like this....a day on the couch sleeping would be heaven!
