Early Morning Revelations

When I awoke this morning at 7AM (a distinctly odd time for me to awaken, I might add), I was confronted by two very interesting ideas. First, I realized I had not seen this hour in some time. Second, I realized there was a *reason* I hadn't seen this hour in some time.
I've never been a morning person. I've always thought it kinda cool when I get up early and accomplish a bunch of things before some people are even dreaming of being awake. There were times when I'd be up at 4:30 in the morning, just to go running, or to beat the newspaper boy to my front stoop. Lately, though, there is little to motivate me from of my haven of slumber. I don't currently have a job; I suppose that has a lot to do with it. Running the console gaming track at Ubercon takes a lot of work, and is almost like a job, in that I have to prepare for it weeks, even months, in advance. It's still not the same. It is nice to set my own hours; I need some structure though. I think when I come back from Ubercon (I leave today!), I will begin to change my schedule so I get up early in the morning again. I need to go to the gym again. Maybe that'll up my spirits. Anyone need a gym partner?
