Tags: natural calamities emergency preparedness rubbing my eyes sleepy voice
From the abyss of sleep the sound of alarm tried to pull me into wakeful state. Automatically I pushed the snooze button. Rubbing my eyes was trying to put coherent thoughts in my sleep induced brain.It was Freezing cold, rainy and windy which made me snuggle deeper into my duvet.
Oh I can sleep more it is Sunday …I could not even bite on that thought when sleepy voice said no it is Monday… How do cows manage to munch on their food for hours whish I could do same with this thought..
I hate Mondays and find some or other reason to think that it would just vanish into thin air. Well today the intensity of the mood was even worse as I was going to work after two weeks and the thought of mile long emails and pending stuff can not win any points with nice warm bed.
My partially active brain started thinking of excuses and events that would make it possible for me to stay in bed at least today…
Have you ever tried this exercise? Well let me warn you this can be the most exhilarating if you let your imaginations run wild..
My imagination and muse have dried up in last two weeks after consistent chatter of intellect proving logic behind our existence. Words like sustainability, global warming, food safety, natural calamities, and emergency preparedness for biological weapons were still reverberating in my mind.
So no surprises when my brain took the scientific thinking process trying to find solution to simple act like just calling in sick for the day…
Sustainability was a favourite word used by all the presenters.. So my mind started thinking of sustainable way to get the salary for the day without going to work..
What could be the worse thing? And voila…Fuel to drive my car if there was no fuel you don’t know whether there is going to be any fuel available to drive your car..Yep you guessed it right … I suddenly wished all the fuel from the City would just disappear and I can give an excuse that I can’t drive to work nor take any transport…
God but then imagine either we should discover genetic way to grow wings or make in built skates on our feet… Cars running without fuel uff… not logical at this point so I discarded this idea..
Tsunami, Earthquakes and other natural disasters they did cross my mind but then thought no I can not be that selfish and wish such calamities on everyone. Next one was calamity in the house.. Thoughts of dripping roof, overflowing washing machine or dishwasher flickered through my mind.
No way this would that force me out of bed trying to protect the new carpets we have just managed to put and thought of all the work involved in it…
My snoozing time was over as indicated by the shrill ringing of alarm again…
What did I do? Well I got out of the bed like a good girl and went to work as finally I realised I am under severe after effects of information overload which I need to offload it to my colleagues to get back my thinking power and my creative muse too…
