anticipation

12 am (ish) Housemate comes homes and I wake, check the clock- 5 and a half hours . . .
2:44 am No culprit this time
4:15 am Thank goodness, a bit space for dreams
5:33 I beat the alarm by five minutes, I spent a few minutes wishing it were earlier
5:40 up and out of bed, throw myself into gi and a few layers of warmth, brush teeth, grab bike
6 am Kangeiko! And I realize all the lack of sleep and anticipation was worth it.
