Energy In A Can

Ok... I'm sold. I ran hard this weekend. I was up from 430am Friday morning until 1am Saturday morning. Then woke up at 9am Saturday and ran until 1am Sunday. Woke up at 8am Sunday and went until midnight last night. So I was a VERY tired girl. Not to mention that family will ALWAYS tire you out. Especially my family. Have you ever seen My Big Fat Greek Wedding? Remember how LOUD all the gatherings were... well.. they have NOTHING, I repeat NOTHING on my family. We're bigger, louder, and fatter. Ok maybe not fatter, but we are definitely bigger and louder. (can I get an Amen?)

Anywho, it started Friday. I was beat, and I had to drive 4hrs, quick change and race over to a wedding. My sister, being the supportive one she is, brought along a little pick me up. It's one of these energy drinks like Red Bull, but it's called XS. It wasn't bad. A little sweet, but whatever. I wasn't totally sold because while I did wake up, it could of been contributed to the excitement of the wedding, the music, the craziness, etc.

Then came Sunday. I finally started home at 3pm. (This was AFTER getting stuck in traffic, cruising down Van Dyke in the slummiest nastiest part of Detroit because 94 West was CLOSED with no prior notice to me!!!) I was beat, I was tired, I was... exhausted. COMPLETELY. I was yawning every 5 minutes day dreaming of my big comfy king size bed, contemplating pulling over and sleeping for an hour while the boy and the other passenger slept. I wanted a coffee but didn't see an easy on/easy off coffee place. Then I remembered my sister, and the energy drinks. **insert hallelujah chorus here**

So I pulled off the e-way and hit a 7-11. I have tried Red Bull before and couldn't finish it because it was soooo sweet. uuuuuk. My sisters XS is a special order thing so none of that. So I'm standing in front of the cooler wondering what to get when I remembered Rodmaster had said he liked Rockstar energy drinks. So I grabbed one. It's the zero carb, zero sugar one. It's still pretty sweet but DANG it worked. I'm sold. COMPLETELY sold now. It was awesome. I was up for the rest of the day, and got all my homework done, house cleaning, unpacking, etc.

I'd like to think it is healthier than a regular pop... but somehow I doubt it. I mean if it seems to good to be true, it probably is, right?

Meeehhhh... I don't have the time to worry about it, excuse me while I sip my drink and continue on my merry way...

**aaaaahhhh**
