A Typical Day

So I suffer from insomnia and had set my alarm for 6:20 this morning. I woke up at one point, look at the alarm clock and wonder why if the display is showing 6:22, why did it not go off. I turn to look at the PVR (kinda like a TiVo if there are any American readers, never mind any readers at all) and it is showing the time as 5:22.

It has happened sometimes that when setting the alarm, the clock moves ahead an hour, so no big deal. As I am reseting the clock, I also discover that in the long run it would not have mattered because, when setting the alarm time, I failed to turn the damn thing on in the first place. To top it all of, my brain said to my body, "You are getting up in only an hour, so why bother going back to sleep?"

I tried to fight it, but the birds (that discovered that there is a gap in the window thanks to some pre-installed ledging on the inside windowsill and have now built a nest under the air-conditioner inside my bedroom) just had some babies, so they decided it was time for a sing song.

So this is the first 20 minutes of my day. I flake on the couch to get away from the birds and then got picked up by a friend because I was borrowing her car for the day to help a friend of mine out.

Wanna guess how the rest of it went?

OOOH - can I guess?

You ran into the Tin Man and the Scarecrow and they mistook you for the Cowardly Lion, so you went to the Wizard of Oz and asked him to give you a set so you could tell Dorothy to stop being such a whiny bitch and to get her ass home herself....

How did I do?
