i used to wake-up grumpy

a co-worker today, this morning, said to me as i sat at my desk looking less than enthused to be there (tired, sleepy - not the same thing, hungry, congested...etc...), that she used to wake-up grumpy in the morning. she said this as she looked at me sitting there. perhaps grumpy, maybe just not ready for the day yet. she says she now wakes up, generally, pretty happy. i can only assume she thinks i need to find the key to waking up happy, and i do, when my cards are played right...saturday morning are great, i'm pretty happy saturday mornings. and sundays are pretty good too. i get my full meal deal of sleep and get to just lie there relaxing until i want to get up. nice. during the week, it's a little harder than that...i want to stay up and see people, or go to the gym, play hockey, hang out with shauna, eat a late dinner and before i know it, it's well past my bed time. and no matter how much i change the time i go to bed, the time i get up stays the same - it's a drag that way....and really (beware of pathetic love related line upcoming...) it's really hard to get out of bed in the morning at the best of times, but to have to get out when you (i) could just stay there and hug a beautiful woman instead of going to work makes it all that much harder. so there.
last night i, with the help of mr. tornack, got the new glass sheets home that will become the new wall in my upstairs loft. it's a laminated glass that's a translucent white so we get the best of both worlds. i get a barrier between the downstairs and shauna gets light coming through the glass as opposed to the wood wall that used to be there that cut off all the light. it's really great looking glass and looks good up there....trouble though....is that i didn't measure both ends of the rail it goes into and it dips slightly at the far end which reduces the height by about 1/4" so as the garbs and i slid the glass down to that end all of a sudden it just stopped and would go no more...we tried a couple of things, i obsessed a little and then we gave up and had sausages and annie's box pasta...so today i'll make some calls and figure iut how to shave glass down to size...should be interesting..

more as it develops.
