Lately I've been having a problem with my morning routine.  I literally get up 15 minutes before I have to drive away.  That gives me 1 minute to feed the guinea pigs, 9 minutes to shower, and 5 minutes to get dressed...hence my "no frills" appearance.  Sometimes this gets me in trouble if I need to remember to bring something to work or drop of the rent check or....god forbid...put gas in my car.  Antics occurred this morning when I forgot to remove a gigantic pair of meat scissors (a gift from my parents) from my handbag.  I feel like I am carrying a concealed weapon.  By "antics" I of course, mean that nobody noticed.  I could have murdered my entire office. 

I have the most annoying sore throat ever!  I need it to go away like right now!  I am going to go home and drink a gallon of hot and sour soup!
