getting up early is...awwwwwesome

so today i started my new 5:30am wake-up ritual. I got on the street by 5:50 and went for my 20 minute run. it's a start to finally get rid of this stupid belly that i've aquired busting ass and indulging athletic laziness from the past 8 or so months. running before work, weights and yoga after. i am getting back into shape and today is the first day of an everyday thing. it better be. i just need to put these words down so i follow them. no body reads this thing anyways but me.

the weekend was fun and traveling. kateri's graduation/party was great, besides the family conflict thing that happens whenever there's uncertainty of who's got control of the situation. it's going to be kinda nice when kateri goes to college. my parents will hopefully start destressing, and i get to kick her ass when she's not doing well with class. i'm going to be a kinda hypocrite with her, because i fluffed off my first couple years, but engineers can do that, not physical therapy students. she needs to understand that she won't be able to party every weekend, and definitely won't be able to leave to go home or here unless she does study then. we'll see what happens.
