Lazy Morning

I'm still here. Doing nothing particularly fabulous or interesting.

Currently, I'm lying in bed at my bro's house. In front of me, I can see the expansive front yard and the cars passing by on the two-lane state highway. My bed is pushed up against another window; I can see the delightful dense woods to my right and hear cars bumping over the bridge. It rained yesterday. Everything is misty and drizzly and a few shades darker than normal.

I'm propping my laptop on my ribcage and knees. I slept in a tie-dye shirt and Victoria's Secret sweats (omg! The most comfortable sweat pants...EVER. I have two pairs and crave more). Mr. Big is stretched out near my ankles; I can feel his paws move when he runs in his sleep. :) I still have on my glasses even though I took Big for his morning potty walk, ate breakfast, and brushed my teeth.

I've been listening to the radio since 8:30am. After all the morning talk and crazy antics (this morning, especially), we're finally getting to the crappy pop music. Normally, I love pop music. But the last four songs are grating on my nerves. I just can't hear "Ain't no holla-back gurrrrrrrl" before noon...or three cups of coffee. Even then, I'd feel like punching someone.

I have my Jane Eyre paperback on my nightstand because my nook needed charging last night. The biggest downside to an e-reader is that, unlike REAL books, its batteries will go dead. I finished my fourth book in a row on my nook! I think I've read my nook every day since I got him! (Yes, my nook is a male. I'll devote a post to my new inanimate-object-tech-gadget-boyfriend). Don't think too highly of me. Most of those books were under 300 pages and pure literary fluff. And slightly trashy. But just as addicting as crack...or so I heard. Not like I know how addicting crack is. Just rumors.

ANYWAYS....I figured watching Jane Eyre on PBS one more time would be kinda pathetic. So I flipped to my favorite parts and read. In honor of "Banned Book Week", I'm reading "Lolita". I'll need a fully charged battery if I want to finish by Sunday.

So...yeah. I kinda want some coffee now. I suppose I should fold some laundry and shower before I go into work. Darn it. Stupid responsibilities.
