I didn’t run yesterday.
To make things worse, I lied to my fiancé when he asked why I wasn’t running and told him it was my “rest” day.
It isn’t. Friday is my rest day. I purposely designed my schedule this way because I know that I have to work all day Friday and won’t have time to work out.
I even thought that I would get up early this morning and run before work to make up for it.
Nope.
And here I sit, eating Skittles with my feet propped up during my designated 15-minute break from work. Instead of running, I sat on the couch for an hour, then rode on the back of a motorcycle for 40 minutes and watched The Office. I even ate a slice of pizza.
Everybody fails sometimes.
I thought about lying about it, too. I had a whole thing planned where I would complain about how my shins hurt (because I was going to do that on Wednesday, but I forgot). I was going to pretend that I tried out my new iPod armband. But then what if, when I really do try it out tomorrow, it totally sucks? Then where will I be? I’ll tell you where I’ll be. I’ll be a blogger who lies.
I know you all (as in the four of you who actually read this…and I can name names, so don’t make me) are disappointed. But things will be better tomorrow. My bridal shower is tomorrow, so I’m getting up beforehand to run.
At least I didn’t lie.
Although I could have just not updated at all…

I'm not disappointed.
ReplyDeleteI think that you've been working really hard the past few months... &with the running, i think that if you come home from work tired... & you have to work 800 hours the next day... maybe it can be excused once and a while.
I'm proud of you for this this... you have balls.
Big, shiny, glittery, pink balls.
I have to admit, you were the one who convinced me not to lie. You commented on my iPod thing, and I knew I couldn't lie to you that I hadn't tried it out, then I wasn't going to write that I had when I hadn't...
ReplyDeleteHi! I "ran" across your blog (thank you facebook) and wanted to tell you how funny you are...even about running, you make me laugh. I hope things are well with you...but I won't have to wonder if you keep this thing up!
