So I ran at the usual 5:45am<\/a>. Anyone that knows me well knows I actually hate getting up early. Even on race day, I just hate being up early, always have, always will. That being said, there is an upside to it. Usually, when I do these early morning runs I come back to my apartment, have a decent breakfast, and then go back to sleep, but for whatever reason that wasn’t happening today. After an unsuccessful fight with sleep this morning; I got my narrow ass out of bed, washed my sheets, practiced my Italian, made a beautiful fruit salad that I will enjoy with lunch, made coffee, washed dishes, showered, shaved, listened to lots of loud music that undoubtedly annoyed the piss out of my neighbors. Basically, I got a lot of shit done.
\nThat being said, and all these things being done before lunch, I’d still prefer to sleep. I also really don’t want to go to work now today. But that’s alright, I’ll get by it’s just 2 1\/2 hours, and it’s adults, so at least they are behaved, motivated, and they pay attention. Ok, and on the way home I can drink on the train. I love how they’ll look at you if you’re drinking on the train, but it’s not illegal, they are just judgmental.
\nMeanwhile, I’m torn, I want to go home and see my family, well most of my family. At the same time, I want to just save money. Oh well, it will work out and things will be fine. Sometimes I have to stop worrying so much, I’m very bad with that though. Alright, time to make lunch and get ready for work!
