Rainy Mornings, soup spoons, and idle sitting.

So as I woke up this morning, actually before my alarm, I just stayed there for a few moments without turning lights on, without turning the music off, and not even putting my glasses one. I just listened. To what you may ask. I the answer is simple. To the sound of rain falling outside. I love the rain. For me it is one of the most comforting, soothing, relaxing things in the whole world. As I lay there thoughts of yesterday idly passed through my head. Thoughts of what today might bring at the forefront of my mind.


I lazily got out of bed and in a whirlwind of activity ended up at school. Everyone complains about how terrible school lunch is, but hey two blueberry muffins and a bottle of apple juice for three buck isn't bad at all in my mind. But alas today there were no blueberry muffins. After a moment of panic I decided to go with some yogurt. So by now you may think this is just a monologue of my day, trust me it's not this whole breakfast story has a point. And here it is. Drum roll please! I went out of my way to grab a "normal" spoon, as normal as a yellowed plastic spoon is, and as i began to eat the yogurt I realized that I grab what was the sole soup spoon in the normal spoon box. A soup spoon! I mean come on, who in their right might, which many argue that I'm not in my right mind, would use a soup spoon for eating anything but soup. Why would they even put out soup spoons at breakfast, they don't even serve soup! And to top it all off right after I paid, they opened up some blueberry muffins.

So today after school there was an open house for parents to come and meet teachers. I got wrapped into it because I belong to a group by the name of "Pledge Makers", we'll leave that for a another time to talk about, but it is basically a group of kids in the school pledging to be drug and alcohol free. So anyways I sat at the table for two and a half hours. That was two and a half hours of idleness. I hate being idle when I have other things to do. And no matter what it is I always think "Man I should be doing that instead of this," I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about. That's right I knew it, I'm not the only one here like this.

Well my rant is over now. There wont be many posts like this, detailing only my day but today deserved it.

Thank you, tell your friends, and May the Force Be With You.
