That hasn&#8217;t happened in&#8230; well, forever! I had been waking up super early to do all my teaching all week, and the times when I went to bed hadn&#8217;t really adjusted. I laid down for a nap, thinking I&#8217;d only be out for like an hour, and suddenly I was late for my brother&#8217;s family dinner thing. Me taking a nap! Me getting rest! It was just odd. An odd occurrence! I&#8217;m all tired again now. Maybe I&#8217;ll sleep some more! YOU NEVER KNOW!<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of sleeping, Q really likes to do that with me. He&#8217;s learned that it&#8217;s warmer under the covers now, so when I get into bed he DEMANDS I let him into my blanket and then he curls up right beside me. This is a danger to me being able to get out of bed at a decent hour in the morning. He&#8217;s so warm, so cute, and so happy. I don&#8217;t want to ruin that, and it&#8217;s not like I want to get up out of bed either. Surely it would be better just to stay in bed with him a little longer, right? Damn warm dog, loving me and wanting to stay close to me. Such problems I face in life!<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of puppy dogs, Q is also trying to steal my My Little Pony blanket that my brother got me for Christmas. Like, seriously, Q! You have a blanket to lay on right there! But if I drop mine to the ground for a moment, he&#8217;s right on it. Then, like, I can&#8217;t get him off, because of the previously mentioned cuteness and stuff. I bought you your own blanket for Christmas, puppy dog! I mean, I know that&#8217;s in the other room, and you want to lay in here, but&#8230;<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s just a blanket-thief, pure and simple.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of stealing, I&#8217;ve been stealing class time from my students! (Okay, that one was a stretch, I admit.) But seriously, I can&#8217;t make it to class on time. I have 30 minutes to drive to Sikeston after one of my classes and teach there, and it takes me at least 35-40. I either have to let the class before out early every day, or have the other class be shorter than it should be. Nothing I can do about it. I wish we would have caught this schedule problem sooner! I mean, I&#8217;ll make it. It&#8217;ll be alright. But it&#8217;s just kind of frustrating. Because I&#8217;m required to not let students out early and such, and I really have no choice in the matter to do what I&#8217;ve been hired to do. Oh well.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of oh well, I guess this blog is over. Oh well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I took like a four hour nap.
