Everything about my run this morning indicates that I am suffering from a confirmed case of "Drag Ass." It's a real affliction. I swear. In fact, the Physician's Desk Reference has an entry for it:
A mental and physical inability to respond to necessity or demand. Those suffering from this condition may feel as though they are moving in slow motion, and despite being aware of their limited mobility and muted mental acuity, they are unable to improve upon either. Frequent sufferers of this condition include college students, those in their mid-20s who are often recovering from "last night at the bar," and those who are new parents.
See? It's real. And you can't prove otherwise.
Tomorrow it will be a case of "light a fire under my ass" and you will smoke your stats.
ReplyDeleteSo you were out at the bar last night????? I call it Thursday.
ReplyDeleteNow I know what's wrong with me! Thanks, Dr. Jess. :)
ReplyDeleteIt would be so cool to move in slow motion (unless of course you are running). Do you know how many people you would piss off?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the diagnosis! Now I know what my problem has been the last few days.
ReplyDeleteI really had NO IDEA the PDR was THAT helpful!
ReplyDeleteWhen times are rough, remember...you're still in FL!
It's 40, still dark, and foggy here right now :)
Sounds legit to me.
ReplyDeleteDrag Ass might be contagious because I feel like I have a case of it today too.
ReplyDeleteSo, THAT's what it's called, thanks, Jess!
ReplyDeleteI've got a case of it too, skipping my workout today.
ReplyDeleteLet me know if you find a cure.
suck it up and deal. Sorry, I have my H.S. teacher hat on today.
ReplyDeleteAnybody up early enough to run then blog at the 5 o'clock hour is not dragging ass in my book! :)
ReplyDeleteI am cracking up over here!!! so true....
ReplyDeleteThat was so funny! I may read your post repeatedly throughout my day as needed!!
ReplyDeleteI prescribe hair of the dog. Cheers!
ReplyDelete'round here we call it "the Chinese Flu"...Dragon Ass.
ReplyDeleteBahaha! I agree with you. It most definitely affects me lol!
ReplyDeleteYou don't need to tell me twice - it is real, for sure.
ReplyDeleteHa! I have that most Fridays....
ReplyDeleteAs a new parent still in school, I can attest that the day after the bar when you are approaching your mid-thirties is much more challenging than it was in your mid-twenties.
ReplyDeleteHmmm.. running in slow motion? That got to feel like running in a pool of peanut butter. That's hard to move huh?
ReplyDeleteMaybe I should have added "drag ass" to my list of possible ailments - this will only make sense if you already read my blog post for today. :)
ReplyDeleteI can vouch for that. I believe I had that earlier a couple of months ago.
ReplyDeleteHoping for a quick cure!
LMAO.....
ReplyDeletehahaha :) we all have those days.
ReplyDeleteThat's a disease. Isn't it? Drag-ass-itis? :-)
ReplyDeletecan we add people recovering from Marathons to that list?
