Interlude: My Morning

The alarm went off for the 20^th time and I was still in bed.

I looked at the dog, who smiled at me, and she licked me on the head.

I jumped up, showered, and got ready just as fast as I could,

Hoping the day should get better, though so far it didn’t look good.

I hopped in the car and sped off, headed to work on the beltway,

But I neglected to secure my cup, and covered my car in OJ.

Traffic was very heavy, and it took longer to get to work,

I examined myself in the mirror; looking back at me was a dork.

I had forgotten to comb my hair, and it was all a mess.

It was obvious, when I got to work, I would have to reassess.

I finally got to the office and took the lift up to floor three.

I couldn’t wait to eat breakfast, as I was really hungry.

I opened up my computer, and logged into my mail,

But before I could do anything else, I saw I was in JAIL.

My morning had not gone well; my day was not a bright star.

But then I remembered before I left, I placed my lunch on top of my car!
