Over the past several years a disturbing trend has begun to happen. I have been fortunate to work jobs that afford me having the weekends off. This is great because I grew up the same exact way. On Friday evenings, I would take plenty solace in knowing that I would be able to sleep in as long as I wanted to on Saturday mornings. Not so much on Sundays, because I went to Church most Sunday mornings. Between waking up at 8am for 930am Sunday school and staying all the way through for regular Sunday morning worship, Sundays were a wrap! So, Saturday's were all my day.
However, on Saturday's I would wound up waking up early in order to beat my older brother Rico to the T.V./ Saturday morning cartoons (stay tuned for that topic in the future). I was successful about 50% of the time on that endeavor, for my big brother was quite the early bird on his behalf as well. It was from those habits that began me waking up (without an alarm clock) early even on the weekends.
The only thing not so cool about waking up now is that....I actually NEED to be sleep. The only thing worth waking up at 545am in a Saturday and Sunday morning now, is waking up to go relieve oneself and taking my butt right back to sleep! There are no more Saturday morning cartoons, no Mom or Dad's breakfast's or fights to be battled with my brother about rather we would be watching the Smurfs or the G.I. Joe shows.
Now when I wake up all extra early in the morning, I am only reminded of my body being a slave to the corporate time clock. I now, mutter an expletive or two, began to clean the apartment and just give thanks that at least the dvr will have something entertaining waiting on me.....until I (get this part), pass back out around 9am and wake back up at 12pm! GO FIGURE!!!! Aaaaaargh
Have an Outstanding Sunday Folks!
