A Decadent Day's Schedule

5:37a.m. Phone-tree rings with the news that the superintendent has canceled school.
Lay in bed and try to fall back asleep since someone was crazy enough to go to a late movie last night.
Make lists of errands to run and things to get accomplished since sleep isn't happening.
6:30a.m. Move to the couch and turn on the news--see what other districts are canceled.
Fall asleep watching boring news.
Wake up to the sound of the neighbor using her snowblower.
Think about shoveling.
Snooze some more.
Check email.
Take a swim in the warm tub.
Read.
Heat up some leftovers for breakfast.
Exchange emails with other teachers who are off today.
Redeem more of my giftcard delights on iTunes.
Download some new software.
Delete old files, pics and movies.
Figure out how to move purchased songs from the other computer to this laptop so all are on the blessed iPod.
Remember that a to-do list was written earlier.
Start watching a stupid movie...decide to get off the couch.
Wash the dishes.
Uncover the countertops and kitchen table.
Sweep.
Sort recycling and trash.
Sit on the couch and read again.
Change laundry.
Listen to the new cd. Just lay down and listen to the music without doing anything else.
Clean the bathroom sink.
Check messages on myspace.

5:00p.m. Get dressed already!
Shovel out the end of the driveway to avoid getting stuck.
Meet friends for dinner.
Veg out with said friends back on the ol' couch.

Sit and think about the fact that someone shouldn't have slept and relaxed so much today because now that person isn't tired enough to fall asleep.
Write about it, hit Publish Post and try to go to bed again.
