Thank you Insomnia!

I bet I've accomplished more today, at 6:45am, than some of you will accomplish all day! :P Oh, and on 4 hours of sleep! I woke up at 3:24am, wide eyed and bushy tailed. After tossing and turning for 30 minutes or so I decided to get up and do some homework! That should have put me to sleep, right? I read two VERY dry pharmacology chapters and took two quizzes! Attempted to go back to bed around 5:15. No luck. SO I went on a run!

Yesterday I ran 0.84 miles without stopping to walk. Today I did exactly 1 mile, I am pretty sure I could have kept it up, but I wanted a nice even number to work with tomorrow.

So, here's the exciting part of this post. It's pretty dark at 6am, I started my run, literally 30 seconds into it I busted my ass. Completely wiped out on the sidewalk. I'm sitting there, collecting my thoughts. I was thinking, "Well, this is freaking great," because my ankle was hurting at the time, and this huge, scary black dog starts charging at me, snarling his teeth and barking! Thank God he was on a lead. I jumped up, fight-or-flight response activated, and I told the dog, "Okay, I'll leave!" Not even sure why I said that, it just slipped out. If you're still reading, I apologize, I know this is not as terribly interesting as my UTI post.  

So, on another note. I had a great time last night celebrating with a dear friend. Check out my album with photos of the night. I was geeking out with the camera, don't hate. 

One more time with feeling
Try it again, breathing's just a rhythm 
Say it in your mind until you know 
The words are right 

Hoookay, so. Fucking kangaroos. Fire ze missiles! Anyway, not anyways, just FYI. REGARDLESS not irregardless.  

Anyway. I have a couple of short term goals for myself this week: 1) No drinking until the weekend. My birthday is this coming Monday, December 5th! I'll be 25. If you love me, or just like me enough to put up with me for a night, you should have a beer with me this weekend! 2) I am going to attempt to not be on my phone 24/7. It's getting kind of bad, my battery dies before I even make it home from work. Today I am planning on giving it up cold turkey! Going to leave it off and in my purse until lunch. Check it at lunch, and not look at it again until I leave work. Let's see how that goes. 

So, I've been up since 3:24. Did homework, ran a mile, now I'm going to go play nurse until 7pm. My bed better be warm and ready for me around 8 and my body better let me sleep! Good day good sirs!
