shoot.
[suddenly panicks]
what have i forgotten? did i miss a meeting? no, that was yesterday and the other isn't until tomorrow. ok. breathe.
[breathes slowly]
the bed is so comfy. i don't need to get up for hours. laundry can wait. 's not so important to get thank you cards/spray paint/unripe fruit this morning. five more minutes.
[gets into more comfortable snoozing position]
wait. don't i have to...nah. that can wait. or can it. what time is it? what day is it?
[looks at phone]
plenty of time if i don't make art or meditate this morning.
[feels stab of guilt]
if i feel this tired, i must need to sleep more. i only got, what, 10 hours? sure, another few minutes won't hurt...
[realizes is already truly awake and kidding self]
[sighs]
[gets up]

Hehehe... I totally do that! Or my version of it which involves the snooze button and several rounds of bargaining - until I wake about 20 minutes before I need to leave the house. On the rare days when I don't have to be somewhere early in the morning, it ends with looking at the clock in shock - how in the heck did I manage to sleep until 1pm? (c:
I USED to do that...before I got two pint-sized, runny-nosed alarm clocks that refuse to snooze! ;-)
10 hours? Oh man...I remember that...now, it takes me at least 2 days to get that much.
Grace and Peace,
