Or, What Happens When I Am Thrown Off My Routine.
I woke up ~ 4AM with a headache. Fortunately, no nausea; probably smoke-related rather than migraine. So I got up, took a pill, and then because I was fully awake went to pet the cat in his heated bed. He proceeded to lead me to the Designated Pick-Me-Up spot, so I did. He groomed me for ten minutes and then sodded off back to bed. I was unable to get back to sleep, but at least the headache diminished.
I kept tossing and turning as I waited for my 5 AM alarm. Finally I heard the newspapers hit the front door. They're supposed to be delivered by 5:30 but today was closer to 5:45. Oops - yesterday when I turned off my alarm, I apparently turned off my alarm. Oh well.
So, quick shower, get dressed, make coffee. I'm working my way through a batch of chicken congee for breakfast and because we don't have a microwave, I'm eating it at work. So not eating breakfast before leaving helped out today. But I still had to rush a bit.
When I got to BART, I realized my bag felt light. Oops: I forgot to put my book back into the bag. Oh well; I can play games on my tablet during the bus ride home today. Except... yup, left the tablet at home too.
