Story Time

For those of you who haven't heard my story... I figured, ah what the heck, why not?

A few Thursdays ago I woke up exhausted. 

Not too surprising. I'm sure many people wake up that way. I usually do pretty well on only about six hours of sleep but that particular morning a felt like I was living in a fog. It was like a heavy weight was pulling my eyelids down. I knew I would have a long day. I was working 5 hours at the bank and babysitting for the rest of the afternoon and evening. I just kept thinking "I can't do today."

*secret from Emily's present - I sometimes fall asleep in the shower*

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh, I don't really know how to explain that one. hahaha. But on that morning I had leaned my head against the wall as the words "I can't do today" kept replaying over and over. 

I startled awake and panicked. 

I knew I was going to be late for work. I can't stand being late, so I jumped out of the shower and grabbed my phone to see how many precious minutes had been wasted. I had to look at it three times before I comprehended what had happened.

It read 12:51

Yep. It was midnight. I had been asleep for a total of about 85 minutes before I somehow sleepwalked to the shower and started getting ready for my day. I had even picked out a cute outfit and everything! 

There was not a better feeling than getting back into bed and knowing I had the full night left to sleep! I'm pretty sure I fell asleep grinning from ear to ear. 

This has been story time with Emily :) Tune in next time to hear more odd stories!
