Morning Plight

@nne was awaken at 6.15am, disappointed that it was already morning. She had not slept all that much during the night. Sigh. Her hand automatically hit the snooze button, like every other minute. Wait a minute, should I be hitting snooze today? She feels that she was supposed to wake up. Ah! who cares. It's done. And falls right back asleep, dreaming about another world at another time.

"Open your eyes and see... the wonder of a world", her phone rang the familiar song. Vengefully she answered it. "Hello," she mumbled. It was yet another morning call. It's too early to be awake! The sun had decided to sleep in today! For a moment she believes she hears a soft drizzle outside. Hooray! It's raining. But wait a minute... it's her wall clock ticking.

Oh well, a promise is a promise. @nne drags herself across her room to get ready. Shivering from the chill of the morning, she changed and led herself downstairs. Why isn't it raining? Out the door and onto the road. It's just too dark! Every household is asleep!

Her petrol was blinking empty. She silently hopes it will not break down, especially after last night's adventures where she did actually get lost. Don't step the gas pedal too much, she reminds herself. Just let it ease down the road. And around the dogs that like to sleep in the middle of the road. Didn't anyone teach these dogs to sleep at the SIDE of the road or MOVE when a car comes by? Her brain was on overdrive that morning, complaining about every single thing.

It didn't take long to arrive at the spot. Parking at an open spot, she looks around to find her companions. Looks like I'm early. She turns on the radio softly, offs the air conditioning and lies on her steering to take a short nap. But her mind laid wide awake and her body tensed, ready to climb a hill. Great, NOW you're awake?
