Friday Ramblings

I have some very important news to share, friends.

Yesterday afternoon, I drove home from work,

with my entire Thursday evening wide open.

Roomie was working late, V Dizzle is still in Vegas,

and I had a date with the couch and Friends.

But something happened.

Something I can't quite explain.

I got home, took off my shoes {Asian household, remember?},

then went and turned the TV on to get Friends started {very exciting life I lead, I know}.

Then a feeling came over me.

A feeling I'm not used to.

I had an urge to go for a run.

I know. It shocked me too.

But I figured this feeling comes around about once every 3 years, 

so I should go with it lest it disappear forever.

Now, you may be thinking, 

"But Michelle, you're always running these days. You're training for a marathon, stupid."

And I'd say, "You're right. I am."

But Thursdays, oh those glorious Thursdays, are the days in which I do not have to run.

The training schedule calls for Thursdays to be a "Cross Training" day.

Which, as I mentioned earlier, usually means sitting on the couch, exercising my eyes.

So you see, I did this run out of my own free will.

I did this run without V Dizzle pushing me onward and battling my excuses not to run.

This was all me. 

And I'm proud of those 4.53 miles I ran.

Maybe it wasn't very far, but coming from someone who, for lack of a better word, despises running,

I think this was a step forward.

Plus, if I never got out of the house, then I never could have enjoyed this view:

Annnnddddd, I also wouldn't have been able to fully enjoy 

the THREE Fudgsicles I consumed in one sitting.

So you see?

Gut feelings are good.

You should go with them, because you'll probably feel a lot better afterwards.

Happy Friday!!!

If any of you had a week like mine, I'm sure this day is highly welcomed with arms wide open!
