Post Thanksgiving Blows

I'm a night person. It's the way God made me.

When given more than two days in a row off from work, my body immediately leaps back into my late-night mode. Thanksgiving weekend was no different. I reveled in post-midnight movie watching and pre-brunch sleeping patterns.

I am feeling the pain today, however. This morning I was forced to pry myself out of bed at 5:15 a.m. in order to get my daughter to school on time. Having gone to bed at midnight didn't help. Having acquired my wife's new cold didn't help. Having awakened numerous times during the night didn't help.

How bad is it? I just bought a Mountain Dew. Before 8 a.m.

That's a bad sign. That's always a bad sign.

You have a friend in cold-acquiring misery. Flying home today blew but waking up at 5:15 takes the cake. Feel better!

You could have had a diet coke. Remember, "Ma,it's just colored water and you're paying money for it." Now that I think of it,people are paying money for bottles of water.Doesn't make sense.
