The Fight Continues

This morning presented another opportunity to fight the complacency and frugality (ok, cheapness) that is keeping me from joining Derek at the gym. For the original story, click here.

What happened?

I woke up at 5:30 on my own again. (score one for the Pros).

But it was cold, so I curled up under my blankets, snuggled close to Janet, and went back to sleep (the Cons fight back).

Now it's going on 8:00 and I'm in my office, finishing off my 20 oz. coffee (with half-and-half). Oh...the coffee is washing down the Krispy Kreme donut that followed a sausage, egg and cheese muffin sandwich. (the Pros are reeling).

Who will win? I have to make a decision before Monday.

Stay tuned...

The Pros will be the Victor in the Joining, but the competition itself will continue daily!!! The bed??? The early morning hours...remember winter is coming??? The victor will be this unidentifiable being that is certainly not human, call it: Resolve, Determination, Will, Self-Discipline, or call it Punishment, Big Brother, Intruder, or just plain Stupid...each day one of these will wake you, be ready for the 200th inning, 29th round, or, guess I can't say 30th quarter, can I? There have been months when I've actually rationalized that though I had not participated, I had sponsored a local fitness club for the good of the community. Good try!
