why i rock: a typical morning

6:20-7:15 am

deep sleep, punctuated by bleary awareness of the alarm
zombie-like arm movements in the general vicinity of alarm clock
uncontrollable drooling
pushing away of cats nibbling at forearms



7:16 am

damnation! i'm late!
heart palpitations



7:16-7:17 am

frantic pulling on of funderwear & pants
bathroom rush
brush teeth
void bladder



7:17-7:18 am

pat down hair
finish dressing upper torso
shove feet in socks
race cats to foodbowls
feed cats



7:18-7:19 am

grab books to return
grab flash drive
grab phone
grab keys
grab purse



7:19-7:20 am

shove feet into shoes
peer into fridge for breakfast or lunch
go hungry



7:20-7:21 am

get into car
head to work




did you see that? 7:16-7:21 am. i am out of the house in 5 minutes. and surprisingly am not late to work.

and trust me, i'd LOVE to be able to get up early. i just really, really, really suck at it. did i mention i suck at it?

This is exactly how my mornings go... and on the off chance that I do get up early, I somehow screw it up so that by the time I actually start getting ready to leave, I'm already late again.
