GOOOOOOOD MORNING TANISHA!!
It's a beautiful Thursday morning in Provo, Utah. It's a brisk 34 degrees, the sun is shining, the leaves are changing, and.. oh yeah.. you're running late for your 9:30 class... because you passed out on the couch AGAIN last night without an alarm set. Oh and let's see... where else did you fall asleep last night? How about when you were supposed to be taking a quiz with Derek for physical science but you fell asleep, and probably drooled all over the table, instead. In fact, it's very possible you just sleep-walked the entire way home from work last night and didn't wake up until 9:10 this morning only to find that you have no clue where you've placed your homework because you weren't entirely conscious when you came home last night.
Yep. That's how I spent my morning. I woke up to my lovely roommate Alex trying to shake me awake (which apparently she'd been doing forever because I sleep heavier than most people under amnesia) at 9:10 this morning. Then, upon discovering I had to leave for class in a mere ten minutes, I shoved on the first shoes I found, brushed my teeth and (hoping I didn't look nearly as horrible as I felt) began the search for my laptop that I'd half-asleep dropped in my laundry cart in the hall. Yes I still haven't put away my laundry... I should probably be doing that. Whatever. So after finally finding my laptop, I grabbed a granola bar and began walking to class.
As I was walking, I was just marveling at how awesome I was because I got ready in ten minutes and I was already awake enough to be speed-walking to class. Then, I noticed that people walking at a leisurely pace were passing me... awkward right? I guess I was a bit more tired than I'd thought. However, I still managed to get to class on time, but I spent the first hour of class staring in confusion at my teacher and then laughing at inappropriate moments (which incredibly seemed to sync up at all the times when people were very quiet around me).
Overall, it was a pretty interesting morning. Sadly, I have way too many of these. However, there was one bright and happy moment when I got home from class and realized that we had a pan of brownies on the stove. Nothing says breakfast like three or four caramel brownies. Then, it was brought to my attention that before leaving on her road-trip this morning, Kelsi left us a note on the fridge.
To those of you who cannot read this microscopic print it says:
To my Lovelies:
RULES for when Kelsi's Gone:
1. There is to be no laughter, tomfoolery or general jovial behavior at anytime.
2. All proceedings requiring a chief justice (including marriage ceremonies, court hearings, etc) are indefinitely postponed.
3. No playing with knives (that means you, Alex)
4. Feed the Shalee at least once a day
5. Alex cannot watch Netflix past 2. Michaela must be woken up if her alarm goes longer than 20 minutes. Tanisha's hair must be brushed and/or stroked twice daily. Chandler is not allowed around fire in Kelsi's absence.
6. Derek is allowed 3 supervised visits with Bear. (SUPERVISED)
7. Promote peace + harmony and go easy on the toilet paper... remember. Sparing is caring!
and last..
8. WRING OUT THE SPONGE!!! like I've been TELLING you.
LOVE YOU!
I guess the morning wasn't all that bad after all
I don't think I ever had a class earlier than 10. That seems like just asking for trouble. Like covering yourself in barbecue sauce and hugging a platypus-bear, almost no chance of ending well. Good luck with BYU and make sure to give Kelsi a hard time about laughing at a joke's punch line two weeks later when she finally got it. That was a good one and we must Never let her live it down ;)
