swmbo at 08:49am on 22/04/2008MY Earth Day started with fierce thunderstorms and hail at about 2 am. With me popping out of bed and running around like crazy trying to close all the windows. Spring is here with a VENGEANCE!
Then I went back to sleep - and all seeeeeemed shiny and great, except for my weird dreams in which the son of a judge broke my cybook and I had jury duty. Little rat bastard.
Shiny until - DRUMROLL - swmbo overslept ! Until 8! My alarm is set for like 6:30ish and I try to get up and out of bed and drinking coffee (sometimes back in bed for drinking of said coffee but details, schmetails) by 7:00.
8 is BAD. Since 8:15 is when I have to shoot for leaving.
Anyway, I'm running around like crazy for a *second* time in six hours, this time trying to get ready. And I'm going down the stairs into the kitchen and I just - bam. My foot stopped working. It's the best way to describe the fact that I put down my foot and it just - didn't work. I don't know if I put it down sideways or what happened - I didn't trip or miss a step, I just ... failed at standing. My foot didn't catch the ground and I crumpled like a puppet whose strings had been cut, twisting my ankle and scrapping up my arm.
Mmm. HI Tuesday! It's nice to meet you.
AND there are no chocolate mini-donuts in the fridge. *flex* What's next, Earth Day? What are you gonna throw at me now? I'm watching you. WIth narrowed eyes and a cold, steely heart.
But I'm still gonna recycle. Cause I'm a bigger person than you, Earth Day!
