Kin-Tan-Tee

"In Nepal the villagers call me 'Kin-tan-tee', which means 'man who is loved by many animals...who love him a lot, too.."

Oh the infamous Pat Healy.  The one time P.I. turned stalker.

From one of my favorite movies comes my blog about tonight's run.

If you have seen There's Something About Mary then you know what I'm talking about when I talk about Pat Healy.  

There's a scene in which Pat and another stalker Tucker are trying to "medicate" his date's older roommate's dog.  This dog did nothing but growl the last time Pat was around so he wants the dog to like him.  He figures if the dog likes him, so will the roommate, so will his date!  Logical thinking wouldn't you say?

Yeah, don't ask for an explanation if you haven't seen it.  Just follow along.

So Tucker and Healy start tossing speed filled dog treats in the upstairs window where his date, Mary, and her roommate, Magda, live.  Of course the dog finds them and starts eating them.  However, one happens to find its way into the Magda's drink as she isn't looking.

Well Pat shows up for the date with Mary and lo and behold, the dog had overdosed and is now in some sort of shock, which makes it extremely easy for Healy to "get along" with the pooch.  This is, of course, where the the line "Kin-Tan-Tee" is used because Healy is trying to impress Mary and Magda by showing them his "way with the animals".

There is another hilarious scene which follows where the dog finally stops breathing and Healy performs CPR and uses a lamp cord for a defibrillator and brings the dog back to life!  

So after the date, which is also a great scene, ("you have to look at it in it's totalitarian...ism"), Mary goes back home and finds Magda cleaning the house...hopped up on speed!  She's a small woman to begin with, but Mary finds her lifting the edge of the couch with one hand and vacuuming under it with the other!  

So this brings me to tonight's run...

No I didnt score some smack...but I did purchase my first 5 Hour Energy Drink!  I always see the commercials, but never really thought about using any.  Then I had a talk with my Bro-In-Law, who swears by them.  So today after lunch I was in between clients and was feeling a bit drowsy.  It was about 2pm and lunch was beckoning me to find a little park, recline the seat back, and siesta!  However, the very large client (and most likely my boss) would frown on missing this meeting.

Work always gets in the way doesnt it?

Well I stopped a a convenience store on the way and bought one of the little brightly colored bottles.  My BIL warned me of their "unique" flavor.

...um...yeah.  I dont truly know what butt tastes like, but I'm going to imagine the people at 5 Hour Energy have perfected it.  Complete with hints of berry, grape, and pomegranate.

So an hour or so after I choked it down I truly started to lose that nappy feeling.

I dont know if it helped or hurt my run tonight.  But I did keep a really good pace.

(Probably helps that I was on the treadmill and not outside tonight too.)

4.0 miles, 40:35
