Morning


So I had to have some homework done for an early morning training session today. Part of the homework was watching some videos and taking notes. The videos were off line yesterday, plus I wanted to drink martinis and donate lots of money to Anne Litt at KCRW, so instead of getting finished yesterday like a normal person I got up at 3:30AM this morning with the intent to power through the home work and then be in Bellevue at 6:00AM. I got up, took a shower, and then was doing what remains of my hair and applying moisturizer to my fine lines and wrinkles when I heard Fred in my bathroom shredding toilet paper so he could then eat it and throw it up. I stepped into the bathroom to yell at him. I scared him and he jumped straight up and into the toilet. This scared him more and he ran out and into my new cat door but he saw his reflection coming at him in the plastic and this sacred him even more so he stopped short but his momentum carried him through the cat door, across the carpeting, and directly into Roxanne’s door. I have no idea what she heard. I did not see him until later when I was ironing my clothes and he jumped on the washer and into my cup of coffee which spewed coffee everywhere and scared him. Somehow I managed to get everything cleaned up, including little coffee colored paw prints on my new carpeting, and still made it to Bellevue by 6:00AM where I promptly dropped the left ear bud of my $100 Bose ear phones to my cup of coffee right as my training class was starting so everyone on the line from St. Louis and Minneapolis heard me say “Oh my fucking god!”  Great.  Good thing I have that interview with the Foundation near the Space Needle on Friday.  And that I leave for Maui in 28 days.  


Oh no! Does that mean that I will have to title my first blog post from Maui as 28 Days Later?
