CHEAT DAY!!!

So these days I'm either spending my time eating, in the gym, jamming on my sisters guitar (broke 2 strings on mine and I'm just too lazy to re-string the entire thing...) or running obscene distances with my brother Roy. This past Saturday we ran to 49er headquarters, then continued on to Lick Mill creek, up alongside the levy all the way to River Mark plaza. Which is around 3.5 miles from our house here in Sunnyvale. We did some crazy Rocky sprints before turning around to come back and by the time we got home I was in complete duress. The best part is that we push ourselves this hard so we won't feel so bad a couple hours later while we tear into 2 dozen Atomic Wings from the World Famous... Cluck U!!!! Anyone who knows me even a little bit would know that Chicken Wings happen to be one of my All-Time favorite foods. The only problem with Wings is that you need ice cold beer to wash all that spiciness down and after a full football season. Well... let's just say the pants don't fit as good as they did before the season started. But fucking "A" are Cluck-U wings worth it!!!! Afterwards we crossed the street and took a tour of Santa Clara University. It's such a beautiful campus and my little brother lit up while we walked around checking out all the scenery. I missed my chance to go to college but told him that he could go to any school he wanted to if he applied himself. With every new day I'm trying more and more to seize these opportunities that are presented to us throughout our lives. Sometimes just getting out of bed is tough enough... so how hard is it going to be to really make a dent in all these different aspects of my life that I want/need to change?!? What I do know is that it is possible and as long as I stay focused I'll eventually get there. I have to want to do it for me...
