(Joyce Tenneson)

I woke up this morning to my alarm. I sat up, bleary-eyed, slapped off my alarm, and sunk back into sleep. This happened about four more times and somewhere in between I had a dream. In it, I threw off my covers, stepped onto the chilly floor, walked into the bathroom, washed my face, and went out for breakfast. My alarm went off again. What? I thought, as I tried to come to my senses. It seemed so real, my mundane morning routine. I thought I had really woken up already. I realized that it is when I dream about waking up, that I am really, truly tired.

Haha! I've had that! You know that it's gonna be a long day when you get out of bed for the second time that morning!

OMG!

I know, it's weird to think that even dreams can be mundane. puke.

lol.

But i think one of my favorite things is when i wake up at 4 and think i have to get up and then realize that i don't. it's such a relief! (but then i get more tired. hehe)
