cherry-red nail polish and a brisk morning run.

alanna hedden always has these amazing ideas to do, but in turn never actually follows through. so two nights ago, she suggested that her and i go for a morning run at 9 o'clock. it was a great idea, i mean what beats jogging in the morning right? but as always, i figured when it was time to wake up and get ready she would just turn off her alarm, flip the covers over her head, fall back asleep and then tell me that we would do it another morning...i was wrong. 

we originally changed our 9AM time to 930 but i just kept swearing under my breath at this annoying alarm and falling back asleep. but alanna eventually woke me up and told me we were gonna go. so we climbed down the ladder, got on our running gear and ipods and headed out. it went well for the first part until the cramps started to hit. after that, running was a little sore. we ran past the tennis courts, past mackenzie high school into town, past the twins house(stopped for a glass of water which was a bad idea) and then into the river for a refreshing swim. 

shortly after we decided to paint our nails. i chose a faint, pink "bubble bath" colour by OPI while lan chose a cherry red OPI polish. it went successful until alanna got some "fluff" on her nails while i was watching gran torino in the cottage with aunt christine and uncle doug and i had to re-do them which wasn't really a problem. there also was a little accident on a white blanket and after drenching it with nail polish remover, tonic water and water for an hour, we gave up. it was, after all, an accident and we didn't have the right cleaning products for the job. but we did kick back after, ate some 5 times re-heated chinese food and drank some pop and then went to bed. it was a complete night for the deep in the end.
