Why i dont get up early in the morning! Since i am out of school til the 29th, and not currentlyworking, I have absolutely NOTHING to do. Anyway, this must end…i must not go to bed til 3 am, cause going to bed earlier causes me to wake up around 7. In fact, today I got up around 3 am and have been up since then all because i fell asleep around 6 pm yesterday. I guess if my parents were working (well dad does, mom’s still on winter vacation being a TA), it would be a bit different, but i prefer not to venture out of my room til later, because they’ll just want me to do chores (it’s something to do, but i mean fun things)! Well, i guess next week if i’m waking up early I can work in the garden, ride my bike around, or just do an exploratory walk. Hopefully if I get the job they want me to do an interview for, I will have something to do. So, this isnt really asking for a reply (sorry for wasted board space), but i just had to say it. I guess you can add why you all hate waking up earlier than you normally do… ---

Ah, sleeping and waking up without a schedule- enjoy it while you can Doob! Good luck with the job thing anyway. 😉 ---

I hear ya Doob, I went to bed at 11:30 last night and woke up at like 10:30 am! This not having a job thing is pretty odd… ---

Good luck with the job thing anyway. 😉 \*\* I do enjoy it, but well…there’s not much to do in this here room of mine. Although, i did draw a picture, and that was neat-o. Hum…it’s 11:18 now…maybe since mom is gone, i wont be coerced into doing some kind of chore… And rasa, you’re still on eastcoast time, ya? Explains the early bed time :). I know that once you get used to the time difference, you’ll be up like way late again! ---

On new year’s day I slept from 6 or 7 pm to 12 the next afternoon. That was interesting to say the least. ---

I hate getting out of bed because…I like being in bed. And, usually, it means I have to get up and go to work. I have to drag my sorry ass out of bed most weekdays. If I’m going fishing, or going to do something fun, I always jump right out of bed with a smile on my face. ---
