Good Morning and TGIF! How is everyone? This morning I woke up super unprepared for the day. I usually make lunch (and sometimes breakfast), get my workout and work clothes ready, get the coffee maker ready and do a load of laundry before bed. But I did none of that last night because I got home kinda later and crashed (more on that in a second), thus leaving me unprepared and kind of hectic this morning.

Ok, so yesterday I got home around 5pm and found Adam and Oscar laying in bed resting. Adam had a long day of golf and Oscar had a long day of being the cutest pup in the universe…these boys were tired and looked so comfy! For half a second I thought about joining them, but this girl really needed a run. So I changed into my running clothes while chatting on the phone with my bestie May. Once I came out of the bedroom to get my running shoes on I was surprised to see Adam standing there in his running gear He asked how long I had planned to run and if he could join me. I had a run planned in my head, but I wasn’t sure the exact distance. His lower back is acting up again but he joined me regardless. For those of you who don’t know, Adam had an old lower back injury (he put is back out when we were 17 by trying to pick up my my family dog, Mickou (RIP buddy), and put him on the couch). Sometimes this injury acts up, and carrying around a 30 pound gun belt 5 days a week has not done anything to improve it.

We ran 4.1 glorious miles! It was a beautiful day for it, and we both felt like we could run forever! I love runs like that, don’t you? They are very few and far between, and ALWAYS happen when you have a time constraint, right?! Usually they happen, when I have a time constraint in the morning because I have to get to work….booo! But this time, my time constraint was a fun one…YAY! When we got home, I returned some (9!) calls I had on my voice-mail from my part-time job, then hopped in the shower. We drove to The Playwright in South Boston to meet Ashley and Jeremy for dinner and drinks. When we got there I ordered a Blue Moon…yum!

I had about 4 throughout the night. For my meal I ordered the veggie burger with the mayo on the side and subbed the fries for sweet potato fries.

I took one bit of the burger with the bun, then decided to ditch it, so I ate it bun-less. It was totally a cheapo microwavable veggie burger that they added cheddar, mushrooms and red peppers to. It wasn’t bad at all, just wasn’t awesome or anything (hey, I ate the whole thing, so clearly I liked it).  Want to know what was awesome?

These guys!!!! The sweet potato fries were so good, and not greasy in the least bit! AND they didn’t give me a tummy ache…hurray! Adam and Ashley helped me out with them Here is the damage!

We totally ate the rest of those fries after the picture was taken. I think I had about 5-6 more. It was great catching up with Ashley. I am trying to convince her to run the Tufts 10K for Women with me. Come one, Ashley, you can do it!!!!!! Anyone else running this? It would be a great event for a blogger/reader meet up! Let me know

We got home around 10pm and I chatted with my mom and dad while going to pick up Oscar. Then I just got ready for bed and crashed out. So this morning was a little hectic, but I made it to work on time and in one piece…what more can you ask for. Breakfast was eaten at my desk to avoid getting sucked into The Today Show, especially since this story is in the news and I am so interested in it! I had fruit salad (watermelon, pineapple and strawberries), and a whole wheat English muffin with Barney Butter and Trader Joe’s blueberry preserves.

yum, yum, yum

Oh, I never mention this but, I always take a multivitamin with my breakfast. It is just a regular One A Day for Women. I always have coffee too, some  days I write about it and some days I don’t…but there is always coffee

Here is today’s outfit:

HAHAHA! Silly face! Jeans (Seven for All Mankind), white top (H&M), Scarf (H&M) Metallic flip flops (Steve Madden), GORGEOUS diamond ring (My handsome fiance…heheheheh).

You may have notice my hair has been up a whole lot as of late. It is because it has officially entered Hotmessville! Luckily, I am getting a haircut tonight at 6pm…I am in such bad need of a trim. It has been almost 4 months since my last one. Oops! My soon to be sister-in-law Jen, would yell at me. She is a fantastic hairdresser (for anyone is the Foxboro/Plainville area looking for a hairdresser…she’s your gal) and after I went a year without cutting it, she had to give me a major cut in January and lectured me that I need to get it cut every 8 weeks. Sorry, Jen!

Well, I will see you guys a little bit later! Have a great Friday!
