I feel fantastic.

Oh, Ben, you may have been a moron for coming up with the notion of Daylight Savings Time, but that whole thing about “early to bed, early to rise” was right on the money.

I finished my homework for today quickly, so last night I went to sleep at 10:30. I woke up this morning just after 6, feeling refreshed and fabulous. And now, for all the things I’ve accomplished this morning, I feel like it might as well be mid-afternoon, when it’s not even 11 yet. I got a real breakfast at Izzy and Zoe’s, the Jewish deli right across the street, replenished my wallet, got change to do laundry (at Harnwell, as my building’s change machine is out), went grocery shopping for real food (not just Ramen!), and now my clothes are in the dryer.

Also, the weather is GORGEOUS. Dazzling sunlight and a temperature flirting with 60.

Yeah, today is a good day to be me.
