Hello, friends!
Just a few days until I get married and I cannot wait for a number of reasons. I am going to be marrying the love of my life and my best friend, which is pretty sweet. I am looking forward to all the great things that Meg and I are going to be able to do for the kingdom as a couple. That is going to be pretty sweet as well. One reason that may be a little understated but still really important is that getting married is going to be great for my back.
See, once Meg and I get married, I get to move into our apartment. That means I get to sleep on the bed that we bought. I took a nap on that bed one time. It was NICE. Now, sleeping on a new bed may be great and all but the comfort in compounded when you consider that the past few weeks I have been sleeping on nothing but couches.
The apartment where I am staying in Saint Louis is great. The roommates are great, the location is wonderful (except that it is too far south for UMSL or Flo Valley, where Meg and I work) and I am staying there rent free because there are 4 guys and only 3 rooms. What this means though, is that I am sleeping on a couch. Add this to the fact that I am sleeping on a couch already in Columbia when I go out there on Tuesdays, and I can definitely feel the pain.
I guess the moral of the story is that I'm getting old. When I was younger I slept on the couch in California and I think I actually preferred it. Now, I wake up sore and creaky, not quite ready to bike, run, walk, or even stand up. I wouldn't be surprised if the couch has led my back to be all mangled and such. I'll probably go to a chiropractor after the wedding.
Anyway, that's one of the reasons I haven't been biking much. I need to get myself right before I can start to pedal in earnest.
