My alarm went off, and jerked me out of one of the best sleeps I’ve ever had.
The sleep I was supposed to be having at normal sleeping hours, the sleep
that usually plays hard-to-get, until my 'If I fall asleep now, I'll get this much sleep....'
plummets from hours to mere minutes.
I peeled the duvet off myself, rolled like a wingless bird to the edge of the bed to grab my laptop that's (over)charged on the floor. This part is when I always imagine it slipping from my hand & crashing on the floor, because why not, I kinda deserve to be punished for precariously picking a Macbook like a handkerchief.
In a manner that had become second nature, I opened Zoom, typed the ID & password,
clipped a plain sheet of paper on the clipboard.
Btw, now I cut an A4 sheet into half, like a proper kanjoos.
But it's not about kanjoosness.
Who else has been using & wasting so much paper during this pandemic,
you think you should go feed a tree?
Pencil? Sharpened quickly on the bathroom counter.
Eraser? Couldn't give a fudge about how black & dirty it was. It should clean itself.
Water Bottle? I ran to the bedroom to fetch it.
My other alarm went off - means 2 minutes before the class starts.
I called out to my kid, who’s downstairs finishing up with brushing his
teeth & washing his face. I heard him rush upstairs, like a good boy.
"Coming!", he called out excitedly.
He propped himself on the chair in front of the laptop.
I told him NOT to sit with his legs wide apart. Bad Manners!
Ready.
I clicked 'Join'.
