Running With Sunburn, Late Night TV, and Links

While relaxing at my friend's cottage on Sunday, I figured since we got there after 1, I could forego sunscreen. For those that don't know, I have the genetic makeup of a vampire when it comes to sunlight, and I stupidly earned myself a pretty nice sunburn. While everyone knows this will make your skin more sensitive, most don't know how that would effect you while you run. Let me clear this up. Basically until the sunburn goes away your whole body itches and your skin get super sensitive. Because most males relax in the water with their shirt off, this also makes your nipples considerably more sensitive (are nipples the most useless part of a man's body? I think so, but that's a different story for a different day). So after a couples days of working out, I'm happy to report my sunburn is finally starting to go away, however not without logging quite a few uncomfortable miles.

As stated in my last post, I was quite exhausted on my return from up north. After basically sleeping on and off for 48 hours, I have basically sabotaged my regular sleep schedule for this work week. Not to say this doesn't have advantages, movies like XXX (with Vin Diesel, not a porno) and Cop Out are considerably more enjoyable when you can't get to sleep. If a good movie, like Super Troopers or Bourne Identity comes on? All the better. The disadvantages are somewhat obvious, but at least now I know, if need be, with the assistance of an extra large coffee, I can get through a work day on less than five hours of sleep.

Here's some links to kickstart your work day:

-Seriously, why are we still talking about Charlie Sheen?

-Quickie list of who you should follow on Twitter

-Hopefully these MLBers never took steroids, but really, who knows?

-As if you needed a reason not to screw with bears

-Facebook keeps adding new toys
