REST DAY!!!! yummm
Last week I took Monday as a rest day, but tomorrow I have soccer.
I really wanted to sleep more last night because of how insomniac I'd been at the end of the week, but inevitably every Sunday I awaken at 7:00 with a "fake hangover." What time I went to sleep on Saturday has no effect on this, it's clockwork. This is what I call it when lack of sleep, dehydration, and a very small amount of alcohol combine to simulate the hangover after the consumption of an actually large amount of alcohol. I have only been actually hung over a few times ever, mostly when I was eighteen, but I get fake hangovers pretty often. Sometimes in the middle of the week! I hate it, but much like real hangovers, fake hangovers are all my fault, for neglecting to drink water and staying up late.
Today's was not so bad though-- I drank some water, wrapped my ankle, stretched a little, cleaned house (that's active recovery, right?) and then took a well-deserved hot bath, to soak all my achy pieces. I also ate a lot. I always eat a lot on Sundays, usually because I have neglected to eat on Saturday. So, soccer tomorrow and probably no run. Though I may get inspired! We'll see.
