Sleep in

This morning, after enjoying a few quiet bevvies last night, I woke up at 8:03, 12 minutes before I was due at work. And, in what may possibly be a Japanese, if not World record, I was at work by 8:16. I was even dressed! And thankfully there were several other late teachers so the meeting hadn't started yet. It is not a nice feeling though, to wake up in front of your co-workers. I still had morning face on and morning voice happening which kind of gave away my situation. But I think my face has gone back to normal now so it is all good. Just feeling quite hungry really...

How was the shower situation?

Shower situation?

Sloth said...

i.e. did you have a shower or did you have an "English Bath" (spray yourself with de-oderant)

I rarely shower in the morning - I come from the Wash Before You Get into Bed camp, as rare as we seem to be these days.

And I believe that the expression is "Pommy shower"; if you are going to insult a nationality you gotta go all the way after all!

Very true on the "Pommy shower". But what about the sweat and stuff during the night. Even if I have a shower at night I always have one in the morning. How else am I going to wake up. Spending 15min in the shower in the morning is a great way to start the day.

Hmm, yes but I clearly didn't have 15 minutes. I don't find that I sweat so much in my sleep that I need to shower in the morning - no one has ever told me I stink yet so I take that as an indication not to change my habits - people shower too much these days I reckon. You just don't need to be that clean all the time.

It's not the clean its the wake up. True you didn't have 15min. But I think you should try it. Waliking into a shower asleep and walking out awake is a great start to the day.
