I See Lattes In My Future

Happy Friday Eve!  It's time to Think Out Loud a tad, don't'cha think...out loud?

See what I did there?

Thanks to the hostess with the mostest, Amanda @ Running With Spoons for the linkup!

1.  New socks?  I have been trying to come up with one excuse to not get these, and I just can't.  For the life of me, I just can't find one excuse.  Ordering them to---day.

2.  Beyond pale.  Just...I WANT THE SUN BACK.  Where does it keep going?  And why does it leave so soon when it does visit?

Also, I love wearing my glasses, but I think that one ear is higher than the other or something, because the frames are never ever straight.

3.  M*A*S*H is on Netflix!  

4.  Oh Starbucks.  FINALLY.  

5.  This is *SOMETHING* being built behind my school.  Rumor has it that it will be an LA Fitness!  *LE SCREECH!*

6.  FaceTime with Sophia is probably one of the silliest things.  She shows me everything from her BFF's room, to dogs, to random papers.  Also, up her nose.

7.  Selfies with my students:  I take them.

8.  I am REALLY missing this.  Time with the /R/iver /R/unners!  We get to see Fearless Leader Greg and Solemate Steph most weeks, but the running has been replaced with eating pizza and watching "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia".

9.  I also miss regular pool time.  I think I'll be back on track next week.:)

10.  Harry and I are officially on the hunt for the Red Velvet Oreos.  He tried two different places on the way home yesterday.  *le sigh*

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Plans for the weekend?  Races?  Movies (SPONGEBOB?!)?  Relaxing?

Have you found the Red Velvet Oreos yet?  If so, TELL ME WHERE THEY ARE.  PLEASE.

QUICK:  Name something ORANGE in front of you!

PRO Compression socks deliver maximum comfort and speedy recovery times. The science is complex, but benefits such as improved blood flow, stability and comfort are universally understood. The moment you put these socks on your feet, you will feel the difference.

This design requires more effort to put on than standard socks. But it’s that extra effort and much-needed compression that make all the difference. Be patient and your feet will thank you.

True graduated compression promotes circulation by pushing fluid up from your feet and ankles to toward your knees. This design also helps reduce swelling and inflammation while providing critical support to muscles and tendons.

My personal experience with PRO COMPRESSION socks:
I wear them while I'm running.  I haven't tried wearing them while cycling, but I'm sure that I would get an equally as awesome experience as I do when I wear them while running.  To be honest, I generally don't like compression on my calves.  For whatever reason, I haven't had a very good experience with other calf compression sleeves or knee-high socks.  My lower legs get tired and wonky.  (?!)

My experience with these, however, has been very different.  My belief is that the PRO COMPRESSION socks allow for more natural biomechanical movement of my (giant) calves.  I have worn them to speedwork sessions several times, and the long run a few times.  My lower legs feel fresh the whole time.  I don't get blisters (which has been another issue from other knee-high compression socks), and since I have a wide toe box, I appreciate that they accommodated for more room in that area of the socks; plus, squished toes = more blisters.

And how can you #sweatpink without some PINK socks?!

Go ahead and treat yourself to a pair, y'all.  You deserve THIS!
