Morning breaks and stirs you out of your sleep. You float into a habitual awareness; time, space, location, the day of the week. Your eyelids flutter open to muted thoughts only to close and shut down the daily tedium. You pull the covers up and turn to one side, flipping your thoughts into a daydream. Reality surrenders with surprising ease. A story is at the helm of your vivid imagination and you float with the tide as you ride the wave of your fictitious world. You finally awake, as you always do, but today something awakens inside.

Sunday MorningPosted by: Cléa in General, tags: cbmused, daylight savings, extra hour, sleep, sunday morningI float into gradual awareness, my senses slowly attuning to my surrounds. A thin strip of light escapes from behind the curtain, casting light and shadows on a usually dark corner. I breathe in the quietude. My skin tingles with the cool morning air. The alarm clock displays a later hour. I pull the covers over me and sink deeper into the comforts of the bed. Another hour of slumber. Another hour of dreams.

Martini MomentsPosted by: Cléa in Martini Moments, tags: hunger, Martini Moments, sleep
1. Going to bed late and hungry is a sure guarantee that you will awake at 5 am with severe hunger pains. 2. Once in the shower, you will not remember if you have shampooed your hair once, or twice. 3. You will certainly not recall if you have used hair conditioner or if that was your second shampoo. 4. At work, you will use cold water when making a cup of tea in front of your entire team. 5. You will curse your ‘I-just-got-out-of-bed look’ the second the office hottie decides to engage you in a long and social conversation. 6. You will refer to the brown-noser by the secret name you have always had for her. And not even flinch. 7. By 11.00 am, you will be caught snoozing at your desk with your personal email in full display on your screen. |
