Wild Turkey

I’m craving whiskey.  I keep seeing ads for the Honey Wild Turkey and it just sounds yummy.  SO much so that i"m sitting here on a Saturday afternoon after a long run thinking about how much I’d love some whiskey instead of something that would actually hydrate me and replace some electrolytes.  I swear I’m not an alcoholic.

Last night I went out with a friend and saw "The Bourne Legacy."  At one point, I was feeling bored, so I looked at the time on my phone and we were only an hour into the two-hour movie.  That’s bad.  Movies shouldn’t be boring.  I’ve been less interested in movies lately, for no particular reason.  I feel like my tastes are changing and I very seldom hear about a movie that sounds like it will be good.  In this case, I wasn’t particularly excited about seeing it, it was just something to do on a Friday night while Guy had to work late.  It’s nice to be able to get out and do things and not just be at home obsessing about the wedding or how school is starting.

Yesterday a friend of mine was starting a 100 hour fast.  Seems insane to me, but I like testing the boundaries of my self-control, so I thought I would do it with her.  I went all day without eating and it wasn’t a big deal.  Then at about 9PM she texts me and told me she had just dumped her boyfriend and that she wasn’t in a good mental state to be fasting, so she ate.  There I was fasting, for no particular reason other than to support her, and she had eaten!  How annoying.  So I went to the Wendy’s drive-thru and got an order of french fries.  

A strange choice of food for someone like me who generally eats quite healthfully, but it was the first thing that popped into my head and I was hungry after a whole day without eating.  What’s up with the new skin-on fries at Wendy’s?  OK, I know they are not actually new, they’ve been around for a few years, but I don’t eat there very often.  The fries were gross.  They tasted like dirt.  Like the skins hadn’t been washed well enough.  Considering that was the only thing I ate yesterday, it was a bit of a disappointment.

OK, I’m going to go buy some whiskey.
