RIP Best Feeling in the World

I had such fancy plans this morning! We were to get up at 5 am, leave within a half hour and workout using the begginer workout I found.  Then, we would leave the gym around 6:45 am so I had time to take a shower before work. 

(This is the part where the plan fell apart)

At 5:09 am, I woke with a start to my alarms screaming at me.  One is the high pitched shrieking of a she-beast in heat and the other is this song (which is actually a pretty rad way to wake up).  I turned them off, rolled over and realized that suddenly, I had the most comfortable bed in the world!  It was like I turned over into a magical land where your bed is always the perfect temperature and is made of whipped cream clouds that cradle your body perfectly.   My heart broke as I got up and readied myself for the day.

We finally got to the gym only to find that it doesn't open on the weekends until after 7.  All this planning and I didn't think to check the gym's schedule. That's why people don't let me plan things.  I'd say about 90% of the time, I'll miss one of the most obvious issues (like that it that the gym isn't even open or it might rain or we have something else scheduled that day or that it isn't allowed by the laws of physics...).

To cheer me up, Mr. Husband bought me a delicious cappucino (110 calories for a venti non-fat cappucino at Starbucks!) and joined me for a brisk 20 minute walk around the shopping center.  Even if it wasn't a true workout, it made me feel better that we were out and active on such a nice morning.

I'm bummed I didn't get the chance to try to destroy myself on the elliptical but I am truly heartbroken that perfect blissful comfort was only mine for 6 minutes.  For the rest of my life, I will miss feeling like the cherry on a giant heavenly sundae.

@Cameron I can't wait for me to be one of the lucky ones who naturally gets up before dawn!
