Saved by the dog!
Oct 30 2009 13:06

I opened my eyes this morning to my parents dog whining at me...I just think that she wants to get fed earlier than usual so I roll back in bed until I glance at the clock.  Immediately I try to re-adjust my eyes because it can't be 5:30am!! But it is! I'm supposed to leave at 5:30 so I jump out of bed pull on my work clothes, grab the toothbrush w/some toothpaste, run downstairs, let the dog out, feed her and the cat, spit the toothpaste remnants in the sink, pour some cereal in a lil baggy and run out the door.  I don't even care about hair/make-up, I was atleast still wearing yesterday's make up and my hair wasn't too bad.  But now another problem...I have no caffeine in me and am on my way to work so I have to make the call whether or not I have time for a starbucks run.  The obvious answer is yes.  There's always time, even when there's really not time.  Time is nothing when coffee is involved.  So I run in and can't even mumble out the right drink order and laugh at myself when I say a "Vinni" instead of a venti.  Guy taking my order had a good chuckle at me too.  But I managed to get in and out pretty quick, the drive-thru was packed but inside was empty.   I ended up getting to work about 2 minutes late.  I couldn't believe it.  I've never run out the door in that big of a hurry before.  So both the dog and Starbucks saved me today. 

I'm guessing I turned off my alarm in my sleep.  I got a couple late phone calls/texts so I must have been used to silencing my phone.  This one guy keeps texting me and it's getting annoying.  He's a friend of Patricks and he's the type of text-er that texts you numerous times before you can even write a response.  I haven't responded to any of his texts today because I don't want to send any wrong messages AND I just plain don't feel like it. Now if Patrick texted me, that would be a different story.  Speaking of which, we talked online a bit last night but nothing else going on there really. 

Oh and I got my hippie costume last night.  I'm going to have to tweak it a bit to make it more appropriate.  I'm going to a party with some people from church so I think showing your midriff might be a little much.  But anyhow.  I wanted to get an afro too, but alls they had were black ones and I wanted a brown one.  So I might do without it.
