Brain fart.

I had a sizable brain fart this morning. I'm normally up at 5am for work each weekday, but lately I've been getting to bed far too late. I was pretty tired last night and worried about waking up this morning.

So... this morning I woke up, looked at the clock and saw that it was half past, so I was running late, and I had to let the dogs out, then feed them, get ready, and hurry to work because my co-worker is off. I'm rushing around to get all of that done, and the animals aren't cooperating, and I can't find a decent shirt... Anyhow, I'm in the car, flying down the highway, and I'm happy. There's almost no traffice. There usually isn't much at that time, but there was much less than usual.

Then I look at my car clock, and I wonder what's wrong with it. I wait until I pass the hospital to confirm the time. Yeah, it was half past when I got up. Half past two in the morning.

Crap I hate that. Back home for a choppy hour and a half of sleep.

On the plus side everything was done when I did get up. I do this from time to time, but it's been more than ten years since I've gotten all the way to the car before catching on, let alone five miles down the road.

lol I would be so mad if I found myself sitting at work at 3am and operating on less than four hours sleep. It would be pointless to drive home and I'd be sitting, waiting, until 6am.

It's like I look at the clock, and I'm so worried about getting up on time that I actually see the wrong time.

If I had been closer to work than home I probably would have. As is I got a bit more sleep in my own bed and still got to work early.

However, our new greyhound decided that he didn't like being in his kennel and started crapping. My wife came home from an overnight shift, desperately wanting sleep, and he was covered in it. He won't stop barking in his kennel either, so you can't sleep while he's in there, and of course, he can't come in the house covered in crap. She's having a tough morning.

I figure I'll go home this afternoon, fall asleep, and if I happen to wake up in time for work tomorrow, great. :)

Yeah I have done that before with school.

Wait, you are at work?

I wonder if the dogs sense somethings weird when you do that?

I've done the same thing a couple of times.  Another that sucks is, since my curtains are synthetic brown leather they keep the light out good - with my lights off and curtains shut it will look the same all day long.  So, if I happen to go to sleep very early, like 7 ish, for one reason or another, I will wake up at 10 and start freaking out.

i took a shower and ate breakfast and was walking out the door at 3 oclock once

Haha. No, it's a quote from clerks.
