Infernal Internal Clock

This might seem strange, being as it is being written at nine in the morning, but I assure you I have been awake for longer.

I have not been to work in a week. I have not had anything pressing to do in the morning other than taking The One to her test. Yet for some unknown reason my body continues to wake up well before I desire it to. It started earlier this week, when I woke up just before The One's alarm went off. She still had to go to work while I honored our Presidents. It continued as the week went on; I started waking up earlier and earlier. This morning, I was up a full hour before The One. Long enough to hear her continual "heavy breathing" (I'm told women do not snore). Even Dog was breathing heavy at some points. The wind outside howled and the only one not at rest was me.

My infernal internal clock is still set for me to be at work during the work week. This would be fine and dandy if I was working this week. I have no doubt that by the time I return to normal work that it will be shut off and I will rely on the alarm clock to get me up that early. I have a test on Tuesday which will have me on edge and I will wake well enough in advance for it. Wednesday, however, is just a normal shift. One that will be the test of my internal clock.

And then it ends,
