More Coffee, Please

Why is it that the bed is always at its maximum comfort level when the alarm goes off? The temperature is always perfect, the sheets are nice and cool, the husband has stopped snoring, the dog has re-positioned himself so that he's not crowding anyone, and just when the bed has reached an optimum level -- beep, beep, beep!

Well, this morning I chose to snuff out the alarm and continue to enjoy the bed; I suppose any halo I may desire will have to wait because now I have to do my run this evening.

Oh well, no biggie. I can't be good every day. That would get tiresome, and you guys may suspect I was taken over by cyborgs.

In other news...does anyone want to volunteer to teach for me today? I don't want to go (would prefer to spend all day in that lovely bed), and I think it's going to be one of those days that requires a few extra cups of coffee because I'm feeling slow as molasses this morning. Okay, deep breath...I only have 5 more days of the semester: I can do it! But extra coffee will most certainly be necessary.

I was tempted to sleep in this morning too. I was sooooo comfy in my bed and now I'm all groggy and procrastinating getting ready for the gym and work.

I have one of those mornings almost every morning.

still early for me...need coffee ASAP...

Marcy said...

Ooohhhh I'll do it! Not sure if we'd get any work done but you know I'm good for AMs LOL

I tend to agree; the sleep god know's just how to get you comfortable and relaxed minutes before you need to get up. Ryan overslept today for the same reason (well, that and we were up several times last night with Miller).

Wes said...

Yup. More coffee, lotsa sugar. The kids will appreciate it :-)

I too slept in this morning. Actually, I got up on time but I putzed around until I no longer had time to run. DOH!

Jess said...

Nothing wrong with sleeping in every once and a while...gulp down that coffee

I'll join you on the more coffee thing. Shoo was up for too long in the middle of the night, so I was sound asleep at 8:30 when Jones woke up. Man, did I not want to leave the bed!

I completely forgot to even SET my alarm this morning. Oh the shame!

You are allowed to sleep in every once in a while. :)

I slept in this morning (until 6:30 am) and loved it.

Kevin said...

It sounds like sleeping in was the norm for today. No rest for those of us training for (Half) Ironman

HA - that was SOOOOOOOOOO me today too. I was supposed to run, but I hit snooze and slept the extra hour. But I go thru this entire justification process in my head first. Like, I will change my long run to Saturday instead of Friday. Then I will run Thursday instead of today. Yes, that is perfect. SNOOZE.

Umm, I might teach for you if you want to come clean out my room!?!?!

That's okay you didn't get your run in this morning, you have the rest of the day! No one's perfect. But your pretty damn close!

sadie jumps on the bed (thud) when she's ready for us to be awake and usually it's before the alarms. :(

I will sub in for you. Will lay on the floor and do those air bicycles while sining conjunction junction what's you function.
