daily 100

i overslept today.

big time.

this was not my usual work week oversleep-age
waking up at 8:30 and reaching the office by 9:45.

no, this was serious
and it was without any major fanfare, too.

not at all like in the movies where the hapless hero
leaps out of bed and races through the house
tossing on mismatched clothes and running to catch the bus.

nope.

i simply opened my eyes to a bright sunny morning
turned my head to the clock
and saw 10:00 staring at me.

"shit!" was all i could come up with.
