Eeeearnt! Eeeearnt! Eeeearnt! Ugh. That's the sound to which I woke up every day this summer at 6:30. How annoying! For some reason, no matter how hot it was outside, it was always freezing when I made my first attempt to roll out of bed. Therefore I usually had to force myserf to get out of my warm comfortable waterbed, and fumble around for my glasses. My next tasks were to get dressed in fifteen minutes, jump in the car, pick up my friend, and make it to work by 7:00. I did all of this every morning this summer just to earn forty dollars a day.
