Tacit Exposure

A blissful Monday morning

I woke up early this morning–about 5:30am. I even got out of bed pretty early too at 6:00am.

Sometimes that's hard to do, but today it felt OK. Not easy, but an achievable feat. I always do feel better after I haul myself out of bed, you'd think that would make it easier every day. Something about inertia.

I feel like I've started cosplaying someone who has their act together. I got up at 6, made some clearance bin tea, and ate a Cliff bar while I scrolled my RSS reader. It was sick as hell. This definitely isn't me. It doesn't feel like it. But you are what you eat, so...

I never thought myself a morning person but I feel the same waking up at 6am or 2pm. I think I'm just resistant to change but thrive at maintaining. Heavy sleeper and hard to fall asleep. Good at fasting and not feeling hungry. Procrastinating going to the gym but then loving it and staying twice as long as I planned. I just have to show up and things will be OK.

Once I finish writing this I'll brush my teeth and get dressed for work, the boring stuff. If I have time I'll try to write some Christmas post cards for family. Not sure how early you're supposed to mail those out—I want to avoid the "holiday rush" but also not have them received too early, y'know?

Off to the 9-5...
