Tick Tock Tick Tock

I was tagged by my friend Gina. Before Gina moved back home to Arizona, and when we were still working together she used to send me these things all the time. She knows I love them.

1) Do you use an alarm clock to wake up in the morning?
No, I use the phone ringing wake-up that comes with the phone company package.

2) What time do you set it for?
6:23. I've been doing 6:23 forever. Gotta be an odd number. Just like with the microwave. I cook everything on ?? minutes and 39 seconds...1:39, 2:30, etc.

3) Do you hit the snooze button?
No, I know I have to get up, and I just roll on out of bed when it's time. Now when I was in college, it was an entirely different story. There were days when I'd wake up to a loud banging and yelling at my door. People yelling my name. I was one of those people that could sleep right through the alarm. Right through a very loud alarm.

4) Have you ever abused an alarm clock?
Nope. I'm pretty non-violent for the most part. I saved it for the assholes banging on the door.

5) It's time to spread some "Blogcess" linky love: i pick everybody who reads this...

Same thing with waking up. Me, I could sleep for 24 hours straight. I had a good friend that worked very hard to wake me up for class. She would walk all the way from Montieth to Barringer just to yell at me. Not surprisingly Breezer and I made up half of the square root club. They called us that on the hall because you could multiply all four of our GPAs and they didn't equal 1.

Tomorrow morning will be no different. I dread Tuesday morning, when I need to be on the road for 5 a.m. to drive to Toronto (a 2-hour trip that ends in heavy morning traffic) for an early conference. Ahhhhh!

Joyously roaming through life. Meeting its topographical challenges, and facing each with a sarcastic wit, and an impetuous need to face even more bumps, dips, pits and peaks. How the hell else did I end up with a 22 year old, a 20 year old and a 4 year old?
