Wow. I amaze myself sometimes.
So here's the whole story on why I missed school today:
Sunday night I was up untill 3:30 working on my history final and my improv portfolio (which I later come to realize was not, in fact, even due until today). Now, while this may be very late for some people, for me it is only two hours later than my regular bedtime; which is why the events I am about to describe leave me quite confuzeled. So, I get home from school and promptly pass out in my air conditioned basement. I awake for a brief moment by my mom who informs me that she will be excercising in the room that I was currently occupying with sleep. I go upstairs and take two minutes to fall asleep in my bed. I wake up at around nine o'clock-ish, and got and eat some food, do my homework, go online, whatever it is I normally do until I go to bed at around one (normal bedtime). I awake again at nine in the morning. Crap. See, I'm not allowed to use my alarm clock anymore because it wakes up everyone else in the house but me. Therefore my parents assumed waking-up duty in exchange for not unleasing the vengeful wrath of my sister before she would like to be awake. However, my mom had to go to work early this morning, leaving my dad with the task of my awakening. He obviously failed. So, I went to go call my mom to tell her what happened (because no one was even left in my house by the time I woke up)and ask if she could write me a note that I could bring in for tommorow. Only, the phone in my room is not working. I then went into my sister's room asnd used hers while sitting on her bed. Now, we all know that when we get up in the morning we're not actually awake yet, correct? We like to lie down for about ten minutes or so and then get up, which is what I did as soon as I got off the phone. I wake up on my sister's bed ten minutes AND FOUR HOURS later. That would be 1:30-esque for those of you not keeping track. I then realized that by the time I took my shower, got all ready for school, plus the drive to school, the day would be almost over anyways. Inbstead I stayed home in my pajamas and read. And the only thing I have to say for myself is this: WOW. I really am quite amazing, aren't I? Well, at least I'm well rested.
But honestly, who sleeps this much, anyways?
