I am SO not a morning person!

Me and mornings have never been friends. As long as I can remember, I have never liked going to bed but once I finally went to sleep, I never wanted to wake up either. Alarm clocks try in vain to get me up at the appropriate time each day. I am the master at snoozing without really even knowing I'm doing it. I'm pretty sure my dad had to wake me up most mornings growing up. And, I'm really not a lot of fun in the mornings. I have had roommates who thought for months that I really didn't like them. Then they figured out that I just didn't want to talk to them in the morning. Anytime after about 10am was much better.
So, you can imagine how much fun I have been today when I had to get up early to be out in the suburbs by 8am. It's not pretty! I'm with a co-worker so I am forcing myself to be civil enough. But, I almost cried when my alarm went off this morning. And to top it all off, I'm stuck sitting inside a printing plant waiting for them to print off more proofs of some letters and hoping that they are right so that I don't have to stay here even longer. The fact that there were doughnuts waiting here for us did help soften the blow a bit.
I'm happy that tonight I am heading up to Wisconsin to do a little free laundry and hang with my parents. And, tomorrow, there is nothing on the agenda. That means I can sleep in my very quiet room for as long as I want! Woo Hoo!
On another random note, I am very proud of myself for doing something very brave the other day. It was scary, but it all turned out fine. And now, I have random butterflies in my stomach and keep giggling to myself every once in awhile. You'll have to e-mail me separately if you want that story. I won't be posting anything about it for awhile.

While I love to be up early with a full day ahead of me, I dislike the actual getting up part. Although you are much more likely to find my mood pleasant after an early-morning than if you keep me up at night. Watch out!
