I can't stop sweating

I begrudgingly woke up this morning to go for a run... A run that I have been putting off for days because I can't make myself run in this intense heat. But I figured my next half marathon is only 9.5 weeks away, so I need to pick up the pace.

It wasn't unbearable during the run, but post-run, I could not stop sweating. I even took a cold shower to try to cool off, but being in my hot apartment combined with blow drying and flat ironing my hair, you would have thought that I just finished a marathon. As a matter of fact, I don't think I even was that sweaty after the half. There was no way I was cooling off... so I did what I had to do. I cooled off using poor man's AC: leaning my body into the fridge and face into the freezer. Ahhhh....

What I really wanted to do was go jump in the lake like last night. Steph and I hit up Greenlake with this Fred Meyer Clearance Special: a Hannah Montana Raft. I'm pretty sure we got a few looks of jealousy by the pre-teens that walked by. And from bus friend Scott who joined us, although I think he would prefer a Jonas Brothers raft or water wings. I think he could rock them.
