Feb. 24th, 2009 11:34 am[Error: unknown template qotd]The alarm rings at 5:30 am.
i hit the snooze.
The alarm rings at 5:35.
I hit the snooze.
The alarm rings at 5:40.
Sometimes I turn the alarm OFF. sometimes I hit the snooze two or three more times.
If I have turned the alarm off, I put my face back into the pillow for a moment and groan. I have a fleeting thought of snow days...and how much I'd appreciate one...and then I drag myself out of bed and trudge to the bathroom.
it would be an odd day indeed if I did not pee before doing anything else in there.
After that (and washing my hands of course), I brush my teeth.
On rare occasions, I take a bath. But usually I do my bathing the night before. today was a bath morning, as i was too tired to bathe last night.
If it is a bath morning, I towel off, of course. If it isn't, I stagger back to my bedroom, grab my shoes and toss them onto the bed. Then I get my underpants and socks out of their drawers, fetch my bra from the door knob it gets draped over every night, and get a pair of pants and a shirt out of the closet. Today, however, I pulled them out of the laundry basket of clean clothes that I was too tired to hang up last night.
Sometimes, I turn on KTTC, to watch the weather, and to dream of the possibilities of snow days.
When all of my required materials are lying on the bed, I climb back up. i rub vaseline into my feet to keep them soft and pretty, then I put on my socks then my shoes. Next comes my underpants and pants.
After that, I apply my deoderant (I use the stick kind, not the spray or the roller kind), put on my bra, and put on my shirt.
Then i turn off the TV (if it is on), turn out the lights, and head down stairs.
Some days I eat breakfast at home. Somedays I either drag something along to school with me or stop at McDonalds for a breakfast biscuit or a breakfast burrito. Today I made Cocoa Wheats and ate them in the car. I put in lots of milk so I could sort of slurp them like a hot drink. i love cocoa Wheats.
After I make my breakfast decisions, I check my car to see if it is frosty. If it is, I go out and start it up, so the frost will be melted.
When I eat my breakfast at home, I take my meds at home with my breakfast. If I bring someting to school for breakfast or stop at McDonalds, I bring my meds with me in a snack-sized zip-lock bag.
Usually i sit in my chair in the living room for a little while waiting for the car to defrost. then I get in the car and go pick up Susan, if it is my turn to drive. if it is her turn to drive, I put on my coat and wait for her. if it isn't terribly cold, I sit in the porch and wait. If it is really cold, i sit on the chair in the living room.
if it is a Tuesday (as it is today), I take out my garbage and put it next to the road.
Sometimes I call a friend and chat in the car on my way to work, if I am driving by myself. Sometimes, when I drive alone, I listen to the radio and sing along in a loud and off-key way.
that's about it.
I usually drive to school on Highway 14 when I am driving. when susan is driving, she usually goes the back way by OxBow park.
