So this morning my alarm goes off at 5:30, as usual. I turn it off. I think "I'm going to take it easy today. After all my back still kind of hurts from straining it last week and I need a break."
Couldn't get back to sleep. So a half hour later I just up and go to the gym anyway. What's gotten into me? I wonder if I've just trained myself to be a morning person. I've been getting up relatively early ever since about 1999, when I started working the early-morning shift at UPS (3:30 a.m.). Then it was the mission (6:30), then back to UPS, then regular job for a while (7:00), now here. On weekends I can't sleep in too late because when it gets light in my room, I have a hard time staying asleep. Now for the past 5-6 months I've been doing the early-morning gym routine.
Oh well, I guess there are worse things.

My daughter is a morning person too. I'm not.
Trust me, you're getting good practice for letting your wife sleep in while you get up with the kids someday.
