YAAAAYY for light boxes!!!

[rosebee]

I don't know if it's allowed for me to be awake enough before 7am that I'm getting antsy and tired of sitting still, but that's what happened. :) I woke up after nearly 8 hours of sleep, wanting to do *anything* but wake up and start my day. I forced myself out of bed, grabbed a caffienated substance (Diet Vanilla Pepsi, this time), plopped myself down in front of my computer, turned on my light box, and immediately started massive amounts of blinking and shielding my eyes. (that thing's damn bright). But, half an hour later, I can state with perfect honesty that I have no desire to crawl back into bed. I actually feel awake and like getting started with my day.

The only bad part about using the lightbox at the comptuer is it puts a horrendous glare on my computer screen. I didn't feel like fighting with it today, so I finished reading a book I started a day or two ago. It's by Katherine Kurtz & Deborah Turner Harris, "The Adept: Lodge of the Lynx". I really liked this series. I'm very bummed that they only made it 5 or 6 books long.

And now I *really* need to get my behind in gear, I just remembered I have a doctor's appointment in 45 minutes! While 7:30am appointments are very nice for not having to find time out of your workday to go to the doctor, they're way too damn early!
