I joined in on the hour long spin class at the LAC last night. Once again, it was very tough, but seemed to go by faster than last time. I'm a little sore and tired today, but feel pretty good overall. I think I might take a power nap when I get home today...they usually help quite a bit.
I am trying to ease myself into a work out routine. I ran about two miles on Tuesday night along with doing push ups whenever I get the chance. My goal is to stay after work a few nights a week and take advantage of my membership at the community center. My goal is to see a noticeable difference, in both body and energy level, by the time I go on vacation (to California, it appears) in July. I seem to always be fatigued and sleepy. I know winter has something to do with it, but I also know it's due to my lack of exercise.
Lack of sleep is another reason for the way I feel. I am a "night owl" and force myself to stay up, even when I'm sleepy. I think if I get into my bed at a set time each night to read, instead of reading on the couch, I will be more likely to turn the light off earlier and go to sleep. I'll try this for a week or so and see if it helps.

On a totally unrelated note, "Zombieland" is now out on DVD. So Mark and Kevin, we need to find another movie night soon!
All sleep experts say go to be to go to sleep. Don't go to bed to read or watch TV.
