Achh, meine manshaft!!

Today was quite amusing. I learnt of a new drink called, I shit you not ... 'man shaft'. This may not be how its spelt. I think its actually a German drink (probably spelt 'manschaft' and meaning something to do with team sports) and entirely unrelated to the male genitals, but still. It provided hours of hilarious innuendoisms for me and Jems, while Mark woefully insisted that it was actually a very good energy drink, and we shrieked 'Can I have some of your man shaft?!' and 'What is wrong with me? I have no man shaft!' (as well as the classic 'Mmm, a bit of man shaft perks me right up!'). Granted, we were the only ones laughing. But not everyone can have the sophisticated and developed sense of humour that we possess.

In other news, I have taken up a new hobby. You may all find it surprising that this hobby actually doesn't include toffee waffles or the naming of random cows... I have taken up jogging. Even more surprising, I am not doing it as an attempt to punish myself/kill myself/lose weight... i'm doing it because I enjoy it. Call me crazy, but I like the feeling of running fast towards something. I like the screaming inner protest that comes with pushing yourself further each time, forcing yourself to keep going when you feel like collapsing and the exhausted satisfaction you experience afterwards, as well as the feeling that you've been cleansed in some way. I like waking up in the morning feeling stiff (not in that way, you pervs! I have no man shaft!!) and I like discovering the fact that I love something I always thought I'd hate.

Also, I really really like making myself new running playlists on itunes :-D. They are mostly made up of music I dont usually choose to listen to, but that I deem to be 'energetic' enough. Like the black-eyed peas, who are well known for
1. Their very upbeat beats
2. Their very shit lyrics
3. Their general annoyingness

But still. I like making them. And as much as I love Radiohead and Jon Mclaughlin, they are not really bouncy enough to do the job.

And well, that is all for now my friends. I will try to keep you updated.

peace x
