I get tired early and go to bed, and get up before my alarm every day. I feel like if I'm sleeping in I'm missing out on the best part of the day
This is me. I usually get into work around 7:00 a.m., and am at my most productive between then and about 2 pm. There are days when I'm tired when I get up, but I am always
awake.
Teppy's recent comment about Ray the lightbox reminded me to dig out our lightbox. I've been using it the past few days while doing my makeup in the mornings, and it IS helping.
If anyone's thinking of getting that butler alarm clock, ThinkGeek currently has a coupon code (NOSYMONKEY) to get a free Annoy-A-Tron with purchase: [link]
Just FYI.

Ahaha. I can think of a target for that.
My alarm goes off at 5:00 so that I can be out the door by 6:15 to make it to work by 7:00. I'm not really awake until after the first ten minutes in the shower.
When insomnia strikes and I'm worried about oversleeping in the morning, I drink about a liter of water before midnight. A full bladder reinforces the alarm clock very convincingly.
So, Hubby is home and pissed at all the hoops he has to jump through to get the home health equipment he needs--oxygen tahnks, oxymeter, etc. I think he'll be better once he sleeps in his own bed with his own cat and his own wife nearby.
Many thanks for the ~ma.
Connie, I'm glad he's home and hope he gets all the stuff he needs as painlessly as possible.
My favorite owl tattoo is this one, by Corey Miller. [link] I wish it were mine. The story is pretty cool, too.
Robert has learned a great amount from his mentally challenged sister and decides to depict it with a wise owl being trapped in tree's twisting branches.
He did it freehand, too.
I napped for a while. I'm pretty sure this is a sinus infection. And oddly, I feel kind of feverish -- chills, keep feeling hotter and colder, that weird fuzzy-brain feeling that comes with a fever -- but I don't actually have a fever.
Glad to hear Hubby's home safe, Connie. And no doubt the hoop-jumping is irksome, so at least he's perfectly rational. No doubt he'll feel better after some time at Home Sweet Home. Continued-feeling-better-ma.
Dear Flu Virus of Undeterminent Nature,
Fuck you.
No Love,
