Such a Procrastinator

All weekend I procrastinated the 7 miler that was on my schedule. Not only out of sheer laziness but also as an adverse effect of all the alcohol I consumed. Friday we went out to dinner for my friend/old roomie birthday where we partook in several adult beverages. After dinner she wanted to stop by her sisters apartment for a college house party. Hahahaha. We walked in and everyone just stared at us! Doesn't help that they were all 8-12 years younger than our little group. Some partook in beer pong (I was not one of those lucky some) but did continue on with our adult beverages. We brought good beer b/c I'm a snob and try to avoid busch light/natty ice (or something along those lines) now that we are no longer a poor college student ;) At said party we were talking to one of the 20/21 y.o girls at the party about DePaul and how my friend's husband still wears his Blue Crew shirt circa 1999. She said and I quote "Oh how cute, it's vintage!" We are all still laughing that 1999 is vintage thus making us vintage! We didn't stay long at the party but late enough with too much sangria and beer throughout the night so a Saturday run was scratched. Saturday night we went out with other friends of ours who will soon be welcoming a baby but are trying to go out as much as possible before that day arrives. After dinner in Greektown we went to a local brewery that is closing before the end of the year. It was a late night... No the mama to be did not partake in any adult beverages - strictly water, she is such a trooper for hanging so late though. Today the hubby and I decided to go out for lunch at a local watering hole and the birthday girl and her husband joined us. We sat around drinking beer and watching football. An excellent way to spend a Sunday but not so much when one still needs to run. I spent the rest of the afternoon laying around the house then after the sun was long gone I finally ran those 7 miles.

A college house party. I think I would be lost going back to one. I work on a college campus and I feel old (I'm only 30)!

So funny as my husband currently has on his DePaul shirt - I just turned to him and told him it was vintage!

At 38, I'm practically antique. I can't drink cheap beer either.

Good for you for being your own beer. Life's too short for Busch Light.

I'm not ready to be vintage!! I went to homecoming this weekend though and was pretty sure they were calling me an old lady.
