The sky is falling! Or... maybe I'm just really busy?

No, not really, but everything is coming down on me at once! It's crazy how many things can be happening in your life at any given time, but these last two weeks have been pretty intense.

Megan and I are now "co-habitating" and the move-in was a crazy weekend. We moved in with 2 other friends to a sweet house on Capitol Hill and we're trying to find some time to enjoy the new location. I'm having some major adjustment issues, but I'm working through it. The most major issue is just dealing with a difference of about 25 minutes each way in commute, but I think I can live like the rest of the world... It is tough to change though.

Everything managed to come to a head around the exact same time though. The move-in, this week is the start of class at Catholic (so the job is crazy!), I'm going to Dallas for the OU/BYU game this weekend, Ultimate practice is starting up this week (and I'm going to try and help out), and I'm going to be starting 3 online courses with APU next week (Biomechanics, Exercise Phys, and Anat & Phys). So that's probably why it feels like the sky is falling!

I guess I need to set some goals for the next two weeks. The most basic of them is to just figure out what the new routine is going to be. I've been getting home around 8pm every night, and that's not something I want to continue to do. It's understandable on practice days, but I'm set on keeping 4 workouts a week and I'm going to need time to study for these courses!

On top of that, I've been mulling over a new sleep schedule. I've been feeling a little hazy the last few weeks and I think I'd like to add 30 minutes to an hour of sleep each night. It could help with recovery from workouts and hopefully give me a little extra energy in the week. We'll see what I can manage.. I guess I'm waiting to see what my courseload looks like next week!
