Ben and Jerry's
Where were you at 10:30 last night? I was at the supermarket tracking down Ben and Jerry’s Frozen Yogurt. I have been craving ice cream for a week (I ran out of all things chocolate and peanut butter during finals) but never felt like leaving my apt to go get it. However, last night I was already out and was basically like, enough is enough, I NEED ice cream. Once home, I decided I would see just how much a serving of ice cream actually is (as I mentioned in an earlier post, you can’t let me get bored…). I would like to ask, who actually eats just one serving of ice cream?? It’s like A spoonful. Why don’t apples taste like chocolate? It’s a cruel twist of fate...
Last night I was in charge of calling my friend who was on a first date. The guy invited her over to his apt to cook dinner. She told me she was happy to go-but it did sound sketchy. I was supposed to call at an appointed time to check in. I did, she informed me she was not drugged and/or dead, and we had a very awkward conversation in which she could only answer yes/no questions. :) She has done the same for me. I was going running with a guy I didn’t know at all and I was supposed to e-mail when I got back to ensure he didn’t drag me off in the woods. Obviously, all was good.
Today: 4X (Run 4 minutes, 1 walk). Since I already added an extra day of lesser mileage (um, maybe “minutes running” is a more accurate phrase than “mileage”) than the schedule I found calls for I decided to cut the walk breaks by two thirds (they were supposed to be 3 minutes each). I figured (and by that I mean guessed) the main damage when you are building up like this comes from the pounding from running, not from how long the walking recovery is. I kept the one minute of walking in b/c that time is supposed to be “good for evaluating how you feel.” I buy that.
Tonight I am going to see Crash with some public health girls. It was recommended to them by their “violence” professor. Over spring break we watched a movie on the tobacco settlement recommended by our “law” professor. Yeah, we’re fun. I know.

How's the running feeling?

When I think of a cacao pod growing on a tree, I think "That's what an apple that tastes like chocolate looks like." :)
Too funny about that phone call. When I was in college, a friend asked me to hang out in her room because she brought home a guy from a bar and she was really drunk and didn't want to be left alone with him. After 1/2 hour she decided I was more annoying than he was, and threw me out. :D
