After shrieking with excitement after learning my 8:00 AM class was cancelled, I concocted an elaborate plan to sleep until 11. I never get to see that time on the clock from my bed anymore, but who really does I suppose. Thanks to my early schedule and lovely respondent body clock, I couldn't shut my eyes again after 9:10 AM. Oh well. So goes my morning routine:
-Roll out of bed
-Zombie-walk downstairs and instinctively get the coffee going, get a bowl full of Rice Krispies filled and slice bananas on top to finish
-Walk back upstairs and (sometimes, more than often)trip and/or stumble at some point, spilling Rice Krispies on the steps
-Check my e-mail, the news, facebook, etc. and dump endless amounts of coffee down my gullet
-Finish my cereal and open my door where Gibson (the cat) is waiting to scamper inside so he can finish the milk remaining in the bowl
-Brush my teeth, wash my face, get dressed, pack my backpack, and curse because even though I "tried" to be on time today I'm still five minutes behind schedule
I followed the usual schedule today, except maybe took an extra twenty minutes perusing the internet before heading out the door. After a ten minute walk and a five minute bus ride, I took my place in a cozy armchair in Hanson Hall with a latte in hand to finish about 5 hours of homework. My questions of the day is:
Why do people insist on taking the chair directly across from me (and I mean directly..i.e. sharing the tiny table between our chairs) when I'm clearly hard at work when there are multiple empty chairs next to me? Awkward, let me tell you.
I did get a lot done though, and thanks to our lovely daylight savings time got to walk home in the miserable, dark, 20-something degree weather. Brrrr! Fortunately, the worst of the day is over and I'm now free to make dinner, relax at home, play with the kitty, and get ready to start another day :) 2 weeks left of the semester!
Here's our baby
Sad, huh?
Ciao,
Karen
