Saturday Scotch Surprise

Happy Sunday y’all! The sun is shining! Everything is covered in ice and it’s fucking cold outside! Ahh….perfect day to do absolutely nothing and stay inside.

Yesterday started out pretty miserable…read gray, raining, and cold…and ended up gorgeous. We took advantage of the miserable morning weather and went for a run. Fantastic idea right?! Honestly, I’m a bit of a weirdo and really enjoy rainy/cold running weather. I knooooow, one day I’ll catch a cold but till then, I’mma enjoy it. It was my longest run since the marathon and it felt fantastic.

Just took it nice and easy and ran at what felt comfortable the entire time.

After the run. We spent some time with the torture device foam roller. It was Steve’s first time really using it. I think he likes it!

We went to Beasley’s Chicken and Honey for some late lunch/early dinner. Everything is good there. You really can’t go wrong when the staple of your menu is fried chicken. Even though Steve got catfish…wtf. It was super good, but we totally went there for chicken and catfish is not chicken.

Whilst there, we had the brilliant idea to have a man night. Man night consists of cigars and scotch. Buncha people came over and we did exactly that. We drank scotch and smoked cigars. A rousing game of Cards Against Humanity (with some Crabs Adjust Humidity thrown in there for shits and giggles) finished off the night.

A great way to end the day if you ask me 🙂

Here’s a great picture of Indy thrown in for good measure. Just cause she’s cute.

Do you have a lazy Sunday planned?

Camera Shy

Hi! Happy Monday! (If there is such a thing)

Today’s a bit of a slow day since we’ve got the day ‘off’ for MLK day. We lazed in bed and watched  whole episodes of Dr. Who before actually getting the day started. Well…ok I made coffee for the second episode but that’s just the basics.

Since it’s such a weird great/gorgeous day outside, we went for a run!!

Now, for those of you in the know I think running is kinda awesome. And during my last marathon (City of Oaks), I inconveniently tore my IT band and haven’t run in a couple months. Needless to say, I’ve been a little cooped up and frustrated….sorry Steve.

So I took it short and slow and had NO KNEE PAIN!!! (insert backflip/happy dance). I also got to try out my new heart rate monitor. That’s the number with the heart next to it, aka my Garmin not-so-secretly loves me or has approximately 167 loves.

Indy came on the run with us and had a great time trying, and failing, to catch the squirrels. One day….

We tried to get a picture of how happy she was, but she’s a little camera shy and refuses to look at me when I’m holding my phone. Seriously, she’ll back up to you when you call her. Weirdo. (Note Steve trying to get her to look at me. Oh well)

I’m off to get a little work done since grad school never sleeps. Seriously. It never does.

What are you up to if you have the day off?
