Some days, you wake feeling wobbly and cautious as a newborn deer
painted by first light. Other days, you
wake and emerge from your bed feeling sure and sturdy as a predator freshly
emerged from the earth.
This morning, I woke feeling entirely human and needing to pee. So I hugged my pillow and fell back to sleep
for a bit more.

I woke up and stared at the clock then made a whole bunch of "I'm getting older" waking up noises as I plodded downstairs to make coffee. I'm pretty sure if there were any predators around I would have been easy prey!
ReplyDeleteI am the same before coffee. A kind of zombie mode.
