Lazy Bones
I am so damn lazy lately. I do not mean that I haven't been running or anything, but I am finding it impossible to get out of bed before 6:45 at the very earliest. Which would be okay but it's hot now so one needs to run before work so I am getting into work a bit later than I would like, pretty consistently. Today I got in 'early' at about 8:40. Which turned out to be fine because nobody's really here today... but it's not a good habit. I think part of the problem is that it's hot so I can't fall asleep until 11:00 or so, and currently I really seem to need to sleep for 8 hours a night. Well what can you do.
Anyway, this morning I woke up at a blisteringly early 7:10 or so. I just ran an easy 4 miles because I've run a good amount so far this week and I knew I actually had to show up at work at some point today, and I'd be cross training after work. So that was nice. It was a pretty morning and I had a good time, and I was half asleep so it went by pretty quickly.
Yesterday I had the 8 mile run in the morning and at lunchtime I went to the gym for about an hour of cross training. After work I relaxed at home for a little while and then we went to dinner with Matt's dad and stepmom. They told us all about their recent trip to Greece which sounded really cool. I really want to go to Crete now, it is not only one of their favorite places but also where Colleen hung out pre-Olympics so it must be nice and a good location for running! We also talked about a friend of theirs who's moving to St. John in a few months. Now talk about somewhere I would love to move. I really love the Caribbean - the people are very nice and seem to have a way of really enjoying life for the most part. I've only been once (to the BVI) but I can't wait to go back. It is the next place I want to go for a beach vacation.
Today I am going to head to the gym and cross train after work (maybe 4:30 or so), for about an hour - and today I really mean it, I am going to lift! Then we are going to sushi with a group of friends. I am so excited, I love sushi! I've been pretty good about not having dessert lately so I might try to convince Matt that we need to go for gelato afterwards. It should be a good night!

The same thing has been happening to me, getting to sleep at 9pm or 10pm is just not as easy when it's hot and light out! You are by no means lazy though!
