7:15am Good god it’s morning!
“Ouuuuuuuuuu!” Big yawn.
Let’s see, what time is it? I rub my half open eyes and roll over to check my clock radio.
Seven fifteen.
The time half registers somewhere deep within my sub-conscious as I roll back over as if going back to sleep again.
What day is it today? I roll back over again and check the day – Monday. Another yawn, and I clear my head and take a second to gather my thoughts.
Seven fifteen. Monday. Hmmm.
What? Seven fifteen! Monday!
All of the sudden I gain semi-consciousness and it hits me. It’s seven fifteen on Monday morning.
Hang on. Let’s just check. Is that seven fifteen? On Monday? That can’t be right can it?
I recheck. It is. I’m running late for work – again!

This condition is described in detail in the next post. For now, suffice it to say that I never spring out of bed because:
GETTING OUT OF BED SUCKS!
