best part of my day...

Hearing Ed's much needed words after wondering out loud whether or not I should really get up at 5:15a to run my seven miles before work with Emily (considering my bad sleeping issues, it can be a problem to get up so early):
"Well my honest answer is this. You made the decision to run a marathon, and so you need to do the work, whether you want to or not. My sympathetic answer is you do need your rest, but we both know you won't sleep well until your class is over in two weeks. So go run."

He is absolutely correct. I will be getting up at 5:15a to run my seven miles. Writing it here will help keep me honest. If I report tomorrow I didn't run because,blah, blah, blah and whine, whine, whine, you have permission to blog-slap me...

He sounds like a wise man.

i believe brian's exact words in that scenario would have been "noooooo, don't go run! stay here and cuddle with me!" completely worthless.
