Let me keep sleeping
I was just plain lazy yesterday. I went to sleep really early at about 9pm since I had nothing better to do. I had been surfing the channels for a while but after a while I just gave up and decided that I had nothing to watch and so I just went to sleep.
I was however rudely woken up by the pager in the morning at about 6:30. I woke up really pissed off and called up reception to find out what was going on. By the time I traced through the chain of phone calls that had resulted in me getting called, I figured out that this issue was something that had already been resolved and needed no action by me. But the result of course was that I was awake at 6:30 in the morning.
So I brewed myself a cup of tea and lay there with my head on the dining table in front of my laptop. I had half a mind to call up the person who called in and yell. And another half to simply hit my head against the table since calling up the person seemed like way too much work. So I simply lay there, taking huge efforts to raise my head and take a sip of the tea.
I have always been hooked to drinking tea since I was very small, since my mom used to wake my brother and me, with a cup of tea in the mornings. Actually reducing to tea from coffee is supposed to be a drastic reduction in caffeine intake for my family. My grandparents take in enormous amounts of coffee every day. In fact they get headaches if they do not take coffee at the right time. They actually plan trips to relatives’ houses and plan all the coffee stops on the way. So even though by American standards I drink a lot of caffeine, I think of myself as a moderate and controlled tea drinker.
Anyway, I finally got up from the table and put on some music on my computer and come back to the table. I made sure that I was not on the couch lest I should go back to sleep. This seemed to pump some energy into my veins since I was shaking my head slowly to the salsa music very soon. Finally after an hour or so I managed to get up and go brush my teeth.
Quote of the day: Someone, please turn on some music and do all my work for me.
