only in dublin

so procrastinating ok well really i just drank too much coffee and now i cant sit still. it looks like it might rain. but it might not. i dunno whether to try and wait to see if it clears up in a bit, or take the chance now.
i wont melt or anything. and it is relatively warm outside, perfect running temperatures.
plus my exam tommorrow is cardiac diseases and im all freakin out about atherosclerosis and heart disease. i met this kid whose male relatives haven't lived past their 50's due to heart problems.
and its crazy and weird in a way, but i was immediately thinking of statistics and taking a second look at him and his lifestyle and i'd to restrain myself, i coulda started blabbing about what he 'should' be doing etc.
his activity of choice had led to alot of broken bones and i was like dude, comes a time when ya gotta switch it up. i mean you ever seen an old rugby player? first they dont seem to live that long. and then they move so stiffly it looks like everything takes such effort. the american football physique linebacker like is really bad for leading to future problems-cause all the muscle turns to fat. guys who are like over 200 anyways.
i could possibly just be very biased about running. its just that its the second thing we do after we learn to walk-we want to go faster. it always strikes me when im running along the beach how people religiously walk their dogs everyday, and the dog's playing and running around, the way we did when we were young, and i dont think we ever outgrown the need to run and play. i hate when people have dogs and the poor things are kept cooped up all day, yet we treat ourselves that way, spending hours on our asses, in some cases the only distance being covered is that from the house to the car, to the office, to the car, to the house.
so anyway im worried about heart disease.
i think about the cigarettes i still have every now and then, the way i love real irish butter and toast isnt right without it, and how i love salt, and am apt to salt before eating . . .
ok really, need to get back to the studying.
wish me luck. take care of your hearts.
