The Sunrise

I woke up this morning at 6:34. I was shivering, I told my body, "go back to sleep you crazy person the sun isn't even up yet." I then thought ha God didn't turn the lights on...which is something I said as a little kid. Buts it was so true I looked outside and it was gray and very fall-esque. I went to the bathroom and brushed my teeth and washed my face. I came back to my room and over the hills outside my window I saw a hit of orange and red coming between two peaks. I decided I want going back to bed. I sat down and started to write this post. Now the sky is gray with no hint of any sun. Dang fall sky... I missed the sunrise! None-the-less it is still beautiful. I am in a sweatshirt under my covers and there is a real breeze, not a fan, blowing on my face. I can hear the roosters crowing and birds I've only heard at home I can hear now. I don't think I've ever heard birds here. I hope it storms today because I desperately need to type my paper instead of heading to the beach. But for now I am going to just sit here and listen. It's the kind of listening I like to do the night of a BIG snow storm when you go outside and it is dead quiet, you only hear that quiet when it snows.

Sunday morning I went to brunch paid for by my NSE fees. Brunch was at the Marriott and cause $43 a buffet. You better believe I ate so much food I almost puked. To start I had a little fruit tart which was a small pie crust with jelly and fruit in the middle YUMMY. I had half a bagel with cream cheese and tomatoes and onions and locks or however you spell that nasty looking fish thing. And a half of a Mamoso (the is spelled wrong too orange juice and champagne). My next course was a self ordered egg white omelet with spinach, green peppers, tomatoes, and cheese. Next I had half of a self ordered freshly made waffle. This had strawberries, blueberries syrup AND whip cream on top. Then came cheese and crackers, chocolate moose, lemon bar, another fruit tart, and bread pudding, 2 helpings. I was one happy camper!

Well.... i am going to try and fall asleep again for an hour...

Peace and Love
