lucky streak.

yesterday, i woke up at 820 when i was supposed to get to work by 8. i called in saying that i overslept and would be there asap, but decided instead to get back into bed for a few minutes. next thing i know, it's 1030, and my first shift ends at 11. i showed up at 1 for my second shift, and instead of reprimanding me for my negligence, my boss asked me if i was okay. i spent half the work day clearing book drops and delivering shit with my co-working nicole, and the second half in a secret underground world of geisel library getting paid $10.07 an hour to eat free food.

i stayed up til 2 or 3am last night playing drunken/high cranium with the roomies, despite the fact that i had a final project critique this morning at 8am. i told myself that i can wake up in the morning if i know i really need to, but to my surprise, when i opened my eyes, it was 1020. i showed up to my critique over two and a half hours late, and nothing happened. i presented my "TEXT DEFEATS THE PURPOSE OF AN IMAGE" project, and my professor said it was an excellent use of text and image, and it was really well thought out. in my hustle and bustle to get my stoner ass to school, i left my first project at home, which i was supposed to turn in with my final. i frantically texted my roomies to bring it for me, and roxsan came to my rescue and left it outside of the classroom. to top it off, because i was late, i parked in a 15 min. max parking spot, and arrived right when parking enforcement was assigning tickets. when i returned to my car two hours later to find that it was the only one left, i was ticket-less.



i'm not sure how it's possible for someone to be so lucky, but i'm ever so grateful, and i think it's time for me to stop pulling this risky shit.
