Aaaaand I'm Drunk

So, I blew it a little bit today. Just a little bit, though.

This morning I got up early and ran 3.32 miles around campus in 40'10''. I'd call that a success considering I have run exactly 3 times in July including today, whereas I ran 25 times in June. So I feel like I kind of just picked right back up where I left off. I had to drive to campus (because as I have previously stated, NC does NOT believe in sidewalks and I hate road running) where there is a little trail going around that is exactly 1.61 miles, and I ran it twice. Not too shabby. I felt pretty good and it was really nice out today. It was only 75 degrees and overcast.

Anyway...to the part where I blew it. I met my classmate for lunch today at a local Irish pub for the USWNT Olympic game...and proceeded to have 4 pints of Magners (I LOOOOOVE Magners) which comes out to roughly 719 calories, PLUS I had a caesar salad with beer-battered fish on top. Eek! Aaaand, we sat there from noon until 6 pm so by the time I got home I was a tipsy/drunk mess. I maintain that the reason why I drank so much on a Tuesday afternoon is because a. I don't have job b. I'm enjoying my freedom before the craziness of school starts and c. ESPN and Facebook and Twitter keep spoiling the mother f-ing Olympics for me. I mean, seriously, why doesn't NBC just televise the shit live and then do a primetime broadcast later for the people with jobs. All the results are posted online before anyone gets to see any of the events because of the time difference, and it's pissing me off to no end, because I'm home to watch this shit SO LET ME FUCKING WATCH IT! I guess I have to stay off all social networking sites, not watch ESPN, and not even open my homepage (MSN) for the next two weeks. But WAIT...even when I don't do that it gets fucked up for me anyway. Last night, I sat down to watch Missy Franklin take home the gold in the women's 100m Backstroke, and literally 3 minutes before the race was to be televised, NBC shows a promo for their upcoming morning show, "We sit down with gold medalist, Missy Franklin and her parents tomorrow morning..." I was like, are you fucking kidding me?! Thank you for ruining that. I'm SUPER pissed with the way the Olympic coverage is being handled. Obviously. Can't you tell? So there it is....anyway....

So I got home and was DRUNK and I still had to cook dinner for my family and get Bubs ready for school tomorrow. Its a good thing my husband is so patient and awesome because he played with her and grilled up some steaks while I made Cauliflower Mash (ie a GIANT mess in my kitchen due to drunken retardedness) AND he ended up giving Bubs a bath. I passed out at 7:45 pm and woke up about a half hour ago at midnight WIDE awake and thirsty as crap.

So I've just downed 2L of water and now I'm wondering what to do with myself at 12:42 pm.

I can't say that I ate particularly well today considering I went to a pub and drank a ton of beer and then came home drunk and starving so I devoured a giant steak and caulimash and broccoli and a couple of slices of dubliner cheese...so I don't even really want to think about my totals for the day.

But I did run. And I plan on running again tomorrow, too. Hopefully I don't throw up on my hungover self in the process.

Tomorrow I'm supposed to go to yoga at 9:30 and then go run around 3 or 4. We'll see about the run, but I will definitely get in the yoga. I REALLY need to finish unpacking boxes! My office is still a complete disaster and I only have two weeks until school starts! ahhhhh!!!!

Okay, now I'm rambling. Good night.
