Lucy and the beeps; ahhhhh sweet caffeine
I went to bed last night about 12:30. I can't
seem to get focused on the dissertation and was groggily messing with excel till
i decided to give up and cash it in. So I staggered upstairs, took off my
clothes, and got into bed. I was feeling rather warm this evening, was very very
sleepy so i did not look for anything resembling jammies. The room was cool and
the sheets were cool and the dogs were cuddely and I fell asleep.
For about 20 minutes.
I wake to mom in the doorway saying "luann" in a panicked voice. "There's something beeping in the electrical panel."
She stands in the doorway. I say, "I'm coming" and she doesn't move. I am wearing nothing and I don't need her to comment on this later and she will, probably at her bridge club. So I get up, go to the closet, and get my robe.
One downstairs, we wiat 5 minutes and finally hear a "beepbeep." It's coming from her phone, which has a low battery because its not properly placed in the charger. Oh good, the house isn't blowing up. It's now 1:15 AM and I come back upstairs, check email (why? because I can!) and go back to bed.
This morning, I dug out the espresso machine and am indulged. Getting it to work wasn't as difficult as it looked. Thank gawd. I need to be mainlining caffeine this morning. It's honestly not bad for a first effort.
Meeting Denise at school at 10. In the meantime, I will shower and write a bit, figuring out what to do with this data. I am again in the place I so hate, the place where I have procrastinated with the best of intentions and now have to run 100 directions at once.
