As Time Ticks

I awoke and lay there thinking about time and the lack there of. As I pondered the escape of many minutes that I truly did not need to get away, I admonished myself for the inability to do anything about it. You see, we were blessed with an unexpected two hour delay. When that happens, it’s a gift from God that says you need to rest for two extra hours. But is that really what it means? Is it a gift that the gods have bestowed upon me that says, you have been such a loyal minion who works so hard to appease the entire world, so we will bless you with two extra hours. You may now start working on those horrible (well, except for the ones that I literally dictated to the strugglers) 6th grade five paragraph essays that you have avoided for far too long due to that lame excuse of a lack of time. Hm, it could also be a gift from Hermes the god of fitness bestowing on me the opportunity to finally walk the two flights to my basement where my home fitness gym awaits forgotten and forlorn with a layer of dust, hoping my new years resolution will one day make it to the top of the list. However, after dragging myself out of the bed, and stumbling to the coffeemaker, I saw my computer and it was my Morning Pages that won out. I have been posting my challenge entries just before midnight. Today, I will finally post a TWT entry early enough to be seen and maybe luck up on a review this time. Uh oh, I’d better hurry, I only have 30 minutes left to get dressed? Where in the world did the time go?
