Everybody has their morning boot up process. Some people take 2 minutes to transition from waking up to getting up. Normally I take about 15 minutes but today it took almost 30. Maybe it’s the weather, though I suspect the long ass journey I had to make last night and the flat tire I had to change on my way back are responsible. Whatever the case, I arrive at work 30 minutes late to find my boss sitting in the empty cubicle right beside mine instead of his office far away from the bullpen.
Marho, why are you just getting to the office?
I overslept sir *facepalm*
Hmm, it happens to everyone, then he turns back to his work.
I blink in shock then quickly hustle to my seat before he remembers something else I am guilty of. I pretend to be busy while I catch up with my morning newsfeeds so I don’t attract his attention again. Soon enough though the pretence turns into reality and the emails and phone calls come pouring in.
Today was one of those days where I had so many mundane but urgent tasks vying for my attention. Lunch time flew by and I didn’t even notice. Thankfully my tedium was broken by the arrival of the fitness tracker I ordered online some weeks ago. The last piece of my fit-fam starter pack! I was finally ready to get back in shape.
I’ll close early and go jogging this evening, then tonight I’ll finally catch up on that Game of Thrones episode that I’ve been dodging spoilers for, I thought to myself as I configured the device and paired it with my phone. Then I glanced at my screen and saw all the work I still had left. *sigh*
It’s 8pm and I’m rounding off the last of my tech support requests while thinking of what I can eat that’s light enough not to cause trouble if I fall asleep immediately after eating it. I doubt I’ll be able to stay awake long enough to finish an episode of Game of Thrones.
Maybe, I’ll wake up really early tomorrow and go jogging then
I lie to myself.
