msfledermausI can't believe it...I actually overslept this morning. I *never* oversleep.
I did break my own record for throwing myself together--15 minutes including packing lunch and an umbrella.
I even managed to score an early bus...so I'm here a little earlier than I was yesterday. Yay me.But I think I'd better do something I haven't done in years and years--use an alarm to get up. )
I should have gone to bed earlier, but I was busy monkeying (Yesss, monkeying) with the spinning wheel.
MacGuyver would be soooooo proud of me--I jury-rigged a part out of an old coat hanger with a huge pair of pliers I own. I figured out difficult schematics involving hazy diagrams Ikea would be proud of, bits of string and goofy little springs. The wheel still needs a little tweaking....but the actual contraption now officially works. Not bad for someone who avoided engineering classes:) (Okay okay, I did take elective shop in high school, so sue me.)
There was gold glitter sprinkled on the sidewalk on the way to the bus stop...even in the darkness of early morning it was beautiful. I want to find that person and give them a big fistful of strawberry Pocky for being so clever...
