Veeeeeeeeeeeery short run today. Then London made Vancouver jealous with on and off snow all day long! It was FREEZING!! I could've run home, but my thighs were more sore today than yesterday and I don't want to injure myself before Sunday. So instead I went shopping! I beelined to Primark (not my most regular stop), and treated myself to all sorts of lovely things... then I felt completely hypocritical for raising money for a charity that is based on such ethical principles while at the same time spending my own money at a company that is based on no principles at all! Unfortunately the guilt didn't last long, I tried everything on at home and was even happier with my choices. I got my first bikini in about 5 years without trying it on in the shop (have you seen primark queues?!) for 7 pounds. At home in front on the mirror I thought it was bright, funky, and pushed my boobs up to my chin! Whoop!
Random moment... I ran into a colleague on Oxford street... with a tall, mysterious man by her side. London has been so strange for that. You'd think in a city of how many millions??? that you would never bump into your friends, but it has happened to me quite a few times. Now I need to make more friends, and then I'll be bumping into them all the time!
BTW. bought 2 cakes in Selfridges (did it start out a a shop that sold fridges, or is there a blander explanation of the name?) I ate some at home this evening (just a little), and the other one I'm taking to school tomorrow to share (like the lovely girl I am!).
Night night sweet dreams... happy running!
