three mistakes...
I made three mistakes last night. The first was running too late in the evening... the second was not eating when I got back from my run... the third was not realising mistakes one and two until this morning. The first two mistakes combined to make it nearly impossible for me to fall asleep last night. I ended up tossing and turning for several hours (it was past 1 am the last time I looked at the clock) before I finally fell asleep. So when the alarm went off at 5:15 my reaction was somthing to the effect of, "oh HELL no." at which point the alarm was shut off and I went back to sleep until nearly 7am (which is the time I am supposed to be ARRIVING at work... *sigh*). Despite the challenges I just finished my one hour full-body strength training and I feel pretty darned good about it.
I'm kindof excited for this week. My older son is at his dad's house for the whole week (including next weekend) so I only have one rugrat to chase around. I'm thinking I might actually get a few things done! (IMAGINE THAT!) There is plenty to do - there's back-to-school shopping to do, both kids wardrobes need purging, the cat-box is in DIRE condition, and damnit if the livingroom carpet doesnt desperately need to be cleaned again...
Now I must munch on my veggies and investigate this comment spam I seem to bet getting (I knew it would happen eventually... now I just have to deal with it).

Your evening run sounds like it was fantastic. I've been too chicken to run at night (I get spooked too easy), but it's cool that there were still people out when you got back into the 'hood.
It's weird what running will do to your perceptions. I used to hate the fog and rain, but now that I can see how preferable cool weather is to running in the heat, I can't wait for winter. I'm jealous of your Amphibian-trod run in the rain!

comment spam? I'm intrigued, what happens? or is the best tactic to deny it a profile by NOT discussing it?:)
what's your full body workout consist of, can you divulge details?
way to go with the running. How are the knees?

Ahh. Live and learn, they say. Now make sure you did *learn* from this. You MUST eat after a long run. :)
I'm so proud of you. Have I told you that lately?

At least now you know, I doubt you'll make the same mistake again. Hopefully you'll sleep well tonight.
