Finals week is finally over! Life is now kittens walking on rainbows, or at least it was until 8:30 this morning. With finals week in full swing, I wasn’t getting much sleep and wasn’t really eating. I was merely existing on facts. Of course, when I got home from my last final last night, I crashed big time. I was planning on having a wonderful, luxurious night’s sleep last night. I figured I could sleep as long as I wanted because I didn’t have anywhere to be today.
I was wrong.
Very, very wrong.
At about 8:30 this morning, as I was still blissfully frolicking through dreamland, a construction crew showed up to scrap our streets in preparation to repave. Did I mention they had jackhammers? Lots of them? The lovely sounds of crumbling pavement jolted me out of bed. I don’t believe I’ve ever strung together so many curse words at once before. Here’s the killer. Even a nap is out of the question because the stupid work crew is still jackhammering away outside my window. They have now been at it for 3 hours and 15 minutes straight. WTF?? What could possibly take that long to dig up?? I keep waiting for them to take one of those union required lunches, but that doesn’t seem to be happening. Hmmm…I hope I can get out of my driveway…
