- Go to bed late, and then be unable to fall alseep for awhile. Once you're on the way, drifting off to la-la land, jerk yourself back to full wakefulness. Take another half hour (at least) to get back to going to sleep.
- Wake up ten minutes before the alarm goes off 5-1/2 hours later. Listen to thunder and rain hitting the windows.
- Shower and then spend half an hour doing last-minute pickup for the cleaning lady. Also cram in 10 minutes to check email.
- Drag son to early morning Bible Study because he needs to be at school before the bus can get him there for See You At the Pole.
- Realize that you forgot to grab the Allegra pill, which is why your sinuses are screaming in counterpoint to Jesus Talk.
- Drop kid at school, stop at the mini-mart for a liter of Dr. Pepper and a box of OTC allergy meds. Take the prescribed number pills and then see that it says it causes drowsiness.
- Go to work and attempt to stay awake for an hour. Give up and put down head "just for a sec." Wake up an unknown time later, eat some cashews, put on headphones, and pray for the end of the morning.
