The alarm went off and I quickly but peacefully silenced it. Nonplussed by it, I went back to a blissful sleep only to wake up thirty minutes later to the panicking realization I had to be somewhere important in less than an hour. Then, I suddenly heard my internal voice giving loud commands to my external and almost non-cooperative body.
hurry up
get in the shower
wait, we need coffee first!
hurry up
I dashed into the shower and started my morning routine through a foggy, semi-coherent state. One peek out the bedroom window to assess the weather and....
AAAGHGHHH!
Not only is there an inch of snow on the ground but it was still snowing! Oh, no! Doesn't the universe know that today is THE DAY. sheesh! Then my internal voice started spitting out sentence fragments with a frenzied rhythm.
hurry up
extra time for snow removal
today is THE DAY!
extra time to warm up the car
today is THE DAY!
where is our coffee??
hurry up
I gathered myself as best I could, donned my coat and with no more time to spare, I ventured outside.
Today is THE DAY!
I am "street-legal"...my official day to drive and meet with my neurologist who stylishly sports snakeskin boots and plays loud rock music in the operating room.
All systems checked and approved.
I am free to move about the earth in my Volvo.
...aaahhhh...
