It's day two on the road for your "Road Trip to the Fittest". It interestingly sounds like it is a road trip to you becoming the fittest ever. How could that ever be though, when you are the fittest (and prettiest) ever!?!?!?! The WOD today is trust. This morning, when I was headed into the gym, I saw Alex going in as well. About an hour later, JR came in as well. JR and I were warming up for the class, when he asked about you. I began to tell him about your trip, and Alex jumped in to finish the sentence an explain what you were doing on the road. I was a little taken aback, but didn't want to overreact (for obvious reasons). So I continued to tell JR what you were doing, where you were going, etc. When he found out how long it was for, he was sort of mind blown. At that point, Alex chimed in and said, "man! If my wife could leave for 6 weeks, that would be great!" At that point, I sort of felt bad. He could just be saying that about his wife and family, but that's really sad. I don't ever want to have that situation! It was shortly afterwards, when I was asked about your trip by one of the girls, that I realized how much I really do trust you. Most people would never let their spouse leave the house for 6 weeks, let alone with someone of the opposite sex. Maybe I am just the crazy one that "allows" that. I seem to remind myself of something Yasser once said about his relationship. He said that if Mari was going to cheat on him, then she would find a way to do it. There is nothing he could do about it. So, unless she does, he has nothing to worry about. It's sort of a juvenile explanation of confessing his feeling of assurance and trust for Mari. Regardless, the point is that I trust you completely. It isn't something that is familiar or 100% comfortable for me, but it's true. I care too much about you, not to trust you. Plus, you haven't really done anything drastic enough for me to have lost trust for you. Alright, sorry for this random rant. But I suppose this is what the purpose of the blog is. Also, I am exhausted. But I love you. :)

Until later,

Mateo
