Friday Randomness

Hi there! I have several posts in the works, all of them about half finished.  Focusing is not my strong suit sometimes. It is finally Friday and I'm running on three cups of coffee. (That's a lot for me.) I am tired y'all. Not even for any particular reason. It's just one of those weeks, I guess. So in lieu of any of those other posts still in progress, I'm going to ramble about a few things.

1) I have worked out every night this week. Monday I tried out my new New Balance running shoes and did my toning routine. Tuesday I tried out my new Brooks running shoes for a slightly longer run and determined that I like the New Balance better for running. Wednesday I was back in the New Balance for a short run and toning routine. Last night... oh last night. I was looking forward to a really fun workout, but by the time I got home my head hurt and I had almost no energy. I was thisclose to skipping it altogether, but I managed to pull it together and do a couple of miles on the treadmill while watching Friday Night Lights. That was about all I was capable of. But I'm not dwelling on that. I choose to focus on the fact that I did work out. So yay me. And tonight I am going to go home, put on my jammies and totally veg out. I have earned it, my friends!

2) Friday Night Lights! Oh my gosh, how amazing is this show? It is currently what I call my "workout show," which means I only watch it when I'm working out. It's one of the tricks I use to help motivate me to stick to my workout schedule. (I confess, I have watched a couple epidodes on my lunch breaks. It's that good.) Let me tell you, it really came in handy last night. Oh and the episode I was watching last night was so, so good (Season 1, Ep. 12: What to Do While You're Waiting.) I may have been over-relating just a bit, but wow. So well done. Anyway. If you like a good drama, with good writing and good acting, I highly recommend it. The entire series is on Netflix DVD and streaming (which is how I'm watching it). In fact, I'm very tempted to watch it tonight, but I will try to resist and stick to the numerous things piled up on my DVR.

3) Which brings me to Vampire Diaries. Oh man. This show makes me look forward to Thursdays, people. And it did not disappoint last night. I absolutely HATED the dress they put Nina Dobrev in. But her hair looked fabulous, so I guess I can let it go. So many good things, I can't even get into it all. I wish I had been feeling better so I could more fully enjoy it. But even so, awesome episode, as usual. And Cindy agrees with me! Love!

OK, I'm going to end my rambling there for today. I hope everyone has a lovely weekend. I'm looking forward to lots of rest. xoxo
