"Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise."

I think the dude on USA's $100 bill said that.

^{I somehow doubt waking up at 3 a.m. was what he had in mind.}

I had that dream again.

^{You know the dream.}

It'll flash before your eyes, as you sleep.  It's exciting.  The dream, the vision; it always wakes you up, instantly.

This is what you see:

So you fling the blankets off!

^{This is it!  A sign from the dream gods!}

I better check my blog!  Something awesome happened while I slept!  Everything else can wait!  I don't care that it's still dark outside; three in the morning, pff!  So what!

Upon arrival; the reality...

It was only a dream.

^Again...

So now it's 3:05 a.m. Saturday morning.

What to do...

The early to bed thing — that was an accident.  Dozed off.

Tired, no point in going back to sleep though.  Better get some coffee, she's gonna be a long day.

Cigarettes.

^{I hate you.}

Why must you torment me?

^{Come on.  Just one.  You know you love me.}

Okay!  Fine!  I won't ask questions!  You're in charge, your highness.  I'll go outside first just so you can poison me for six minutes so I feel better.

What's the temperature today, I wonder.

-11 °C

^{13 °F (uck)}

Socks — or no socks?

Too lazy to put socks on.  I'll only be outside for a few minutes.  My Canadian feet can handle it.

Hmm, it's not so bad out here.  I guess I'll sweep the snow off the deck, maybe do the sidewalk as well since I'm out here.

Maybe I should pretend I'm curling and wake up the neighbors...

No.  I better not.  It's too early for shenanigans.

Hmm?  I can't seem to feel my toes...

Feeling fresh though!

^{Some crisp fresh air and a good workout to start the day.}

_{I'll see you again in two hours?}

Oh be quiet, stupid cigarettes!

It's coffee time!

^{Clean cup, check.  Coffee pod, check.  Push the button, check.}

And now we wait.

Hmm.  Looks like this single serve coffee contraption is out of water.

No problem!

^{Off to the fridge I go!}

I've been meaning to change that light bulb.

^{Why do I keep forgetting to buy a bulb...}

Oh well.  No time for bulbs.  It's coffee time.

Wait

^{Did I?}

No.  I didn't — did I?

I did...

^Dammit.

Why, in the actual fuck, did I pour milk into the water reservoir?

Yup.  Automatic brown coffee.

Hmm.  This doesn't taste bad at all.

But I better clean this damn thing out.

What a day, so far.

^{And it's only 4 a.m.}

What the hell am I going to write about...
