Thursday - GET UP!

So I managed to motivate myself off the couch Thursday morning.  I went for a jog right after taking my pills.  I tried to go up the Linton Hall hill but it failed.  I was cold, thirsty, and hungry.  My mental stamina sucked.  At the top on the hill I turned and jogged back.  I went for about 17 minutes and 1 mile.

I ate candy and a Luna bar, drank some green tea and coffee.  I made myself presentable and waited for Kaytie.  She picked me up and we headed to Bridget's.  I need to start taking charge and planning our outings.  Bridget's plans aren't ideal and we usually waste a ton of time or go to something not so great.  The winery, Bluemont, was nice but it had a very small selection of wines.  They weren't bad but I'd rather have hit a couple different places then spend all that time on the road for one place with only 2 reds to try.  We should have planned better and tried the farm for pumpkins too.  Oh well.

After the winery we had to drop Sammy off so he could meet the guys.  Kaytie and Bridget insisted on going back to Leesburg for an Octoberfest.  I knew it wasn't an actual festival, just a bar promo but they of course didn't listen.  So we went back to the tourist trap crap street Harrison in fake Leesburg.  The beer was bad, overpriced and there was no Octoberfest.  They at least realized it when we got there and agreed to get pizza across the street.  By that point though Bridget had eaten/drank too much and got sick.  The more annoying thing... I've paid for everything at this point.  Kaytie had chipped in her share but nothing from Bridget.

So off to Steakhouse to meet the boys.  Another evening filled with smoke and the too loud annoying bar.  It was nice to see everyone though.  Even Lourdes and the Hopes made it out.  The problem was Bridget kept drinking and insisted on leaving with all of them back to the hall.  After some drama we finally left, getting me home around 430am.  I have no idea how Kaytie stayed up for the ride to drop off Bridget and then to her house.

I'm tired of this same pattern.  Next time I'm ensuring it is different. 

Food for the day was a mess - after candy breakfast was taco bell - 3 soft tacos and some diet soda.  Cheese and bread with the wine, lots of beer, a few slices of fancy pizza, a cannoli.
