my side of the story

6:50 Alarm goes off on my mobile phone
6:50:03 I send it flying under the bed

7:00 Alarm goes off under the bed while my dog happily munches on it
7:01 I unglue my eyes and crawl under to retrieve

7:10 Alarm goes off
7:11 I run out of the bathroom with a toothbrush in my mouth desperately trying to switch it off, before the Grump wakes up

7:50 Leave the house at full speed trying to cut off in as many spaces between cars as possible to make up for lost time.
8:30 Squash myself into an elevator and yawn all the way through to the third floor, giving nasty stares to those who stop at second

8:33 Walking to my desk I see Chris sleeping at his desk. I give him a nudge in the ribs. "What are you doing here?" He jumps up to the ceiling and then breaks down in giggles. I roll my eyes and plump down on a seat.
8:35 Log in to my machine while Chris is suspiciously eyeing me. 'How are you?' he cautiously asks. "Hmmphh" I reply in my generosity.

8:45 My machine responds to my username and password. Yes, another success! "Coffee! Coffee! Coffee!?" I shout to celebrate the successful beginning.

8:47 I manage to pick Chris up off the floor and brush the dust off his sholders. "Coffee?"

We walk 10 feet to the coffee machine, when Debs walks in in all her glory. Together: "Good morning, Debbie!". Half the floor looks up in their meercat amusement at the brief interruption. "Good morning darling and sweetie!". It takes a long while to get upgraded to Darling with Debs, so we knowingly nod and continue on our venture.

8:50 Wait for Phil to maintain the coffee machine, fill the water tank and the beans, perhaps empty the tray
8:55 get my triple espresso while smelling the hot chocolate that Chris is getting. Discuss the world happenings and news of his garden adventures.
8:55:30 Ensure Chris is safely delivered to his desk, sit down till lunch.
