IT'S 4:06 IN THE MORNING.
Fun fact, I am not a morning person. Not really. If I can get up on my own terms at my own time, I do pretty well. Change my schedule, and man, life will be rough for a while...ask my best friends mother. I was once a Jeopardy question at her birthday party, "Danielle thinks this person is the scariest person in the world to wake up...who is Maddie Carrigan?"...I maintain that those were bad teenage years, and said best friends mother needs to let that one go...however, I am woman enough to admit my lack of morning happiness deficiencies.
The man and I are back down to one car, which just means I have to wake up before God to take him to work, change my work schedule (which worked out fine...I hope...I think...) and go to bed while it's still light out. All things we can manage. It's a season right?
So today was the first day I had to be up at said time, and there are some things that I am already learning. Here is a list. I composed it while trying to not act like a crazy person on the road.
- The lights stay green, because no one else is on the road...seriously...it was weird. And if I did come to a red light, it changed quickly. And why? Because no one else is on the road this early...and for good reason.
- I'm a bad early morning driver. I had a running commentary about everything this morning, my husband politely asked me to stop talking...it was that bad.
- The only commercials are ones for people who are over 50 and need life insurance. And why would these be the only commercials? Because only really old people are up this late? I guess...I don't know. I would think they would put more commercials on about crazy young adults who need to settle down or something...or maybe it's just that I was watching more re-runs of Law and Order (it's a good show, I'm a little obsessed, with all the different ones, but SVU is def. a fave!)(Oh my gosh, I just shortened words............)
- Opossums. We almost killed one, along with a squirrel and a deer. Wild life decides to be awake this early too. Also opossums are freaking ugly man. It's no wonder they only come out at night when normal people are asleep...don't nobody want to see them.
I also have already done dishes, made my bed, and picked up my room, AND I remembered to take meat out of the freezer for dinner.
And now I feel like I have all this time to do more stuff. I'm even contemplating running...or watching the sunrise...or making more cards....or stamping...showering would probably be helpful. But you know what I could really go for?
I hope this amused you all. And I hope you all realize that what's really about to happen is that I'll fall back asleep, maybe.
I should write a poem about 3AM...it's a crazzzzzy time.
