Up Early

Walking into work early…
(Click for more moblog photos.)
Just after 5am I woke up and realized that I wasn’t especially sleepy, and I could just wake up then. So I did. I took a nice, long shower, then made some coffee in the Moka before heading out to work.
It was nice driving to work in the dark, windows partially down, singing along with TMBG‘s Lincoln, feeling the slightly-warm air from the car’s heater swirling around with the ~56°F outdoor air. I took the 22 Mile -> Ryan -> Hamlin -> West Entrance Drive route, which was empty enough that I had to occasionally use my high beams, just to make sure that there weren’t any deer on the road.
Now I’m here, and I’ll see what I can get done before the time I’ve been coming in lately (~9am). Hopefully all of my work for the day.

Sure, it’s wallowing in 10 year old memories, but there’s something I love about driving in the dark on a cool early morning, with the car heater slightly on, listening to that album. Or the Black Box set.
I just didn’t have anything else to do… There’s nowhere to go, and I can just as easily poke around with computer at work as at home. With traffic being easier that time I just made up some coffee and headed in.
You crazy.
You crazy.
