Nappage

Strikes again

Ok, so as I've said before: 1) I am not a morning person and 2) I therefore hate waking up at 5:45 a.m. every weekday. This inevitably leads to sleep deprivation and an overwhelming desire to nap.

So today, being Thursday, was the day of my first piano lesson of the year. An important occasion, no doubt. Well, I got home from work at 1:45 and my lesson wasn't until 3:00, so I thought I'd take a little 45 minute nap. I even set an alarm for 2:30. Everything was good to go.

Except I love taking naps. Or rahter, I really love sleeping. I do. It's true. If I could get about nine hours sleep each night, that would make me very happy indeed. So, when my alarm went off at 2:30, I simply shut it off. No snooze, no nothin'. Just turned the darn thing clean off.

Then I woke up at 2:56. It is probably not until 2:57 that I realized that I had a lesson in three minutes and still had a little bit of traveling to do. Oops. At 2:58 I was out the door. By 3:04 the car was parked and at 3:06 (3:07 by his clock), I finally arrived in the studio. Good job, late to the first lesson.

"Hi Andy, I was wondering if you were going to show up or not..."

Of course, in a few weeks my lessons won't beging until 3:10 or so, nevermind that I'll be there at least five minutes early. Oh well, time to go to bed now.

I love sleeping.

But I do hate waking up at 5:45.... :(
