"How come you kicked me? I was already screaming with pain?"

"I saw my advantage and I took it. It's what superheroes do."

So I had a doozy of a weekend. I did nothing on Saturday. Nothing. Nil. Zip Zilch. Zero.
Serves me right....I had been out for a beer with my boss and another lady from work. Turned in to a rather long night that ended several hours later. I probably would not have been so tired had I first, eaten something and second told Sarah what I was up to.
I got a an early morning phone call from her "reminding" me that letting her know would have made for a better night's sleep for her and - as it turns out - me.
Serves me right.

I could muster only enough jam to watch an episode of American Chopper and a couple of episodes of Sex and the City before I checked out for night.

Today not only was I not a whisper of my normal self I was also productive. I have now a clean apartment not that it ever gets dirty), freshly laundered clothes and linens, an idea of what courses I will be registering for this fall and a nearly completed feature story that, no matter how much time I work on it, will never be as good as I want it to be.
