Oct. 17th, 2004 11:41 amHappy Sunday, folks!
I am wrapping up some stuff at work. Gawd...this world is going to carve me into a morning person, if I'm not careful. I went to bed before midnight last night. For a lass like me, that's abnormal!
My morning started out behind the curve. My previous night's ambition was to awaken this morning at around 6:15am. I set my alarm accordingly. I woke with a start at 7:19am. My alarm had not been disengaged meaning a)the alarm is dead, Jim or b)I slept through it. If it is either one of those, there is still a new clock in my future. If it is "a", it's busted. If it's "b", I've managed to become too accustomed to the alarm and able to ignore it. Must...find...something...more...shrill and obtrusive.
With such an auspicious start, I blasted out of the house, into my car, and over to Starbuck's. I procured my elixir of alertness, and returned to my automated chariot. What followed was a freak accident involving the lid popping off the cup o' coffee, and coffee spilling up over onto my hands and vehicle. Fortunately, I was not a recipient of a truly scalding cup of coffee. No burns were sustained, and the coffee did not appear to drip on anything that would ill-favor being drenched in hot liquid.
With brief thoughts of a famous lawsuit involving coffee and Mcdonald's floating in my brain like a feather in the wind, I proceeded to work. Since I didn't perish in a giant ball of vehicular collission flames, I consider this morning a rousing victory.
