69.8 miles: Good Pumpkin.

I was a good pumpkin today.
-ate breakfast.
-fought off the hazy napping feeling in class. It's doable? It's that easy? Somehow, I gained an awareness of how it felt when it was just starting, not "OMG can't keep my eyes open" and was able to push that feeling away and concentrate on the lecture :)
-ate soup
-turned in paperwork to buy things/get moneys back for buying things. Finally.
-made the circuit components work. Boo-yah!
-ate yogurt.
-went to Panera for (whole grain) bagel and coffee and a read instead of getting chips from the vending machine and staring at the screen.
-came back and did paperwork and cleaned up.
-yoga!
-ate tomatoes and mozzarella.
-haven't popped a single Midol (this is an accomplishment).

Lessons learned today: Motivation is a choice. I can grow a steely backbone and not give in to the hazy/lazy feeling. I can keep up an internal mantra of "Really? You're better than that."  I can have the kind of day I'm proud to end!
