A Night Owl Reflects on the Early Worm

Sunday mornings are always pretty awesome. It's the only day of the week when I wake up before the rest of my roommates (I know, I know, I'm weird--why wake up "early" on the weekends?) which gives me a chance to have some alone time. Quite often I think about my family, life, and other important things. I don't necessarily find answers to whatever ponderings may be perculating, but I certainly have peace and peace of mind these mornings and that's nearly as good and definitely helpful.
