Thank God for Rodney and Jake on mornings when I wake up on the wrong side of the bed... like today. Just in a foul mood following the news from ASU and the even more unpleasant news about the car being stolen. Picked a fight with a politically conservative friend on Facebook over global warming less than 30 minutes after waking up, bemoaned the unpleasantly cold weather and the snow, and then brought the worst attitude to working out shortly afterwards. Don't get me wrong, I worked hard at P90X this morning, but there was no joy or catharsis in it. And yet after all that, the dogs (who have been watching their silly biped of a pack-leader jump around like a weirdo in the morning for the last five weeks) came right in dring the cool down and licked my face and wagged their tails as if to congratulate me on the hard work. That never fails to make me smile and turn my mood around.... and I smiled brightly and genuinely. I believe their support is going to carry me through the rest of the morning at least.
