Hello all. Some random thoughts for the season.

I have found a great way to actually enjoy waking up in the morning. I am not a morning person. People keep telling me, "oh, you get used to it". How long does it take?? It's been 28 years! If I was going to get used to it, don't you think it would have happened by now? I'm not buying it. But my amazing plan developed after my recent trip to New York.

See, when you go to New York from California, you lose 3 hours. It's pretty tough, at least if you're on a work schedule. I tend to get to sleep the first night at about 1am... Which is only 10pm pacific time (a decent hour to go to bed). That would be okay, except that I have to wake up at 7am the next day-- the equivelent of 4am my time! Ak!

But I was in NY for 6 days and got adjusted to the time. When I came home, I got to bed by 10pm (PST). And the amazing thing was, I went to sleep, fully intending to sleep the morning away the next day... And I woke up, completely rested, at 8:15am!! Wow! It felt like 11am! I decided the best way to enjoy the mornings is to fool your body into thinking you're on east coast time while being on the west coast. Only trouble is if you don't get to bed by 9pm it doesn't work out too well because you're practically a zombie as your body thinks it's the middle of the night! Fun stuff. We'll see how long I can keep this up!

Other random thoughts... Let's see. Well, I've had a lot of energy as of late. More energy than I have had in months. I feel great! I've been skipping and dancing through the house. If only I could figure out why... I think it's because I'm not tired! It must be this time change thing. I feel like I do when I get to sleep when I want to. Oh, and I've also had 4 days off in the past 6 days. That could help too. But even when I've had vacation days, I haven't felt this great. I am loving it, I hope it lasts!! (Then maybe I will update my blog more often! haha)

Well, I must be tending to my laundry. See, it's almost 9pm, which is about the time when I start getting ready for bed now. Great stuff. I think I'll still have an issue when I actually go back east though as I won't be able to sleep in until 11am!

Peace out, beloved friends! :D
