being productive makes me happy

So today I didn't get out of bed untill two, but I read for two hours. For some reason I feel as if I accomplish something when I read, so I'm trying to read more often(Carlo's a good influence in that department). After that I went running! It is so hard to run here in Florence. First of all it's all city streets, second of all, there are so many tourists and they just stare at this little blonde girl running like I'm an exhibit in one of the museums. And third of all, all the asian tourits laugh at me and point when I am running. I never thought of myself as an awkward runner or funny looking when I ran, so I'm not quite sure. All of them are so skinny and anorexic anyways, maybe thery just aren't used to seeing poeple run to be in shape. It bothers me and makes me unconfortable when I run. For this reason, and many others, I'm looking forward to coming home. I can't wait to be in the most 'fit' area of the country. I just read a statistic that Washington state is the most active state in the united states. I'm glad that I can affiliate myself with it instead of the rest of the nation(specifically the midwest) where the growing population is becoming obese.

I'm seriously considering getting a tatoo now. I want one between my shoulder blades, and i've already designed it. I think I'm going to wait until I get home because I'm trying to save the money I have and not spend it on things that I can just buy at home.
