The way out is through
Default I got up at 5am today...

...I didn't know the world even existed this early! I figured all the gnomes would still be out building the world for today.

Anyway, we're cooperating with a company in Poland and Austria. So it's 3pm there when it's 6am here, so I had to come in early so we can test our communications. Man, I don't know how you early bird folks can deal. My stomach is all messed up... I'm hungry yet too sleepy to eat... blech.

You should see what I'm wearing... t-shirt, dark blue thermal, a gray SECCS t-shirt, red plaid flannel, nice leather jacket. I'm dressed in layers, each one totally unrelated to the last... that's what I get for dressing quietly in the dark so I didn't wake up Lisa.

Wasn't there an Amazing Story episode that was kinda like that? Dudes building the world for each minute.

Thought it was a "new" twilight zone... with some people that pop into the world "early" and see the green or blue guys wrapping up construction.

...I actually surprised that someone got the reference!

Wow, I barely remember that episode.

I don't think I would have gotten it without Dan pointing it out though.

At least you don't have to wake up at 5 am to go running. I'm done with PT, showered, in uniform and at work before the sun comes up. I hate it.

None at all. I miss waking up at 9 am and strolling in to work only to sit down and fall asleep again.
