How I Became a Morning Person (And Some Other Stuff)
I slept in 'til 9 today, to remind myself why I hate sleeping in. -headdesk- It's amazing how my delving into social media has changed my sleeping schedule. I used to sleep past noon and stay up until at least past 3 am, because I felt I had nothing to fill the day with. Now, I'm up around 8am at least. And I would get up earlier, but my Mom HATES it when I'm up while she's trying to get ready for work. She says that she needs the quiet of the morning to mentally prepare for going to work. She confessed that she'd go insane without it.
I'm cool with that. It's just really annoying when I get up and she's still running around, getting ready for work. She won't let me get into the bathroom unless I'm doing the "I gotta pee" dance. (TWO BATHROOMS. THAT'S ALL WE NEED. WE DON'T EVEN NEED TWO BEDROOMS - JUST TWO BATHROOMS.)
Anyway.
Being on Twitter and Tumblr, mainly, has caused me to change my waking hours completely. I altered my lifestyle around the traffic of the social media sites I'm obsessed with. FUCKED UP PRIORITIES. I HAZ THEM.
That being said, I love waking up early, now. It feels weird not to. Plus, I pay dearly in backlog from Twitter and Tumblr when I sleep in.
Okay. Enough self-reflection. I bought a pack of Chicle gum today! From World Market.
See, I was walking home from grocery shopping at about 2pm. For whatever reason, I had yet to drink even a little coffee. Fucking crazy, let me tell ya. There was literally a fog at the edges of my vision. I remembered that the World Market on my way home offers free samples of coffee and tea at the back of the store. This is awesome, because you can go back for more as many times as you want, without cashiers leering at you.
So, I probably had about 5 little cups of coffee and 2 of tea. Ty-phoo tea is boss. I felt kinda bad for just waltzing in and overindulging in free samples without buying anything. As my coffee was cooling to a drinkable temperature, I had lots of time to browse. The candy selection is crazy, both in selection and size.
Despite that, I ended up with a itsy-bitsy-teeny-tiny box of Glee brand Chicle for .99. And it was/is delishus. And it didn't leave a bad taste in my mouth, like sugar-free gum. And it gave me a ridiculously strong urge to play Spy Fox: Operation Ozone. If any of you understand that reference, I will name my firstborn child WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU WANT. Which is kind of meaningless, seeing as I nevernevernever want to have children.
Here is where I would like to share some links of today's internet shenanigans with you, but I haven't gotten into the habit of saving them yet. Perhaps tomorrow.
One last thing -
Days until I turn 18 - 5
Days until I take the GED - 11
