Life

Well, here we are.
New year, new semester.
And so far, so good.
Granted, this whole 7:30 class thing may kill me.
But other than that.

The biggest difference right now is the way I feel.
In the last two weeks, I have worked out at least once a day, five days a week.
And it feels great.
It's not so much that I've seen crazy, drastic results physically.
It gives me energy. It makes me happy.
(because exercise creates endorphins, and endorphins make you happy, and happy people just don't shoot their husbands)
I do more during the day. I drink more water. I eat better. I go to sleep earlier. I have an easier time getting up in the morning.
Everything is just better.
I keep things interesting - treadmill & elliptical one day, Jillian Michaels another, my conditioning and zumba classes twice a week.
I also joined a real gym. Where the people there care. They aren't there to show off, they aren't there to find a date. (Though I'll tell you, after just a few days there, I wouldn't necessarily object if that were to happen...)

In other news...
I'm working on my first "grown-up" job application.
Crazy, right??
I just have to write a cover letter and it can go off!
It's a job with the Arizona Diamondbacks - a job I'd kill to have.
We'll see how it goes.
But it's just a start.
It's nerve-wracking to be thinking about growing up and stuff.
However, just doing this application has gotten the ball rolling.
It reminds me that I'm going in the right direction.
I've found what I love.
And I can do it for the rest of my life.
Sure, it's a pretty specific field, but I can make it as broad or as narrow as I'd like.
Bring it on.
