The Morning After

November 19, 2008 by Amy

The morning after Twilight premiere that is.  I was up until almost 1 finishing my review last night.  This morning I was tired but I got up and got the girls ready for school but talked Scott into actually driving them.  At 7:25, 5 minutes after he usually leaves to take them, I was still standing in my robe and had not had a shower in over 24 hours.  No makeup and my hair was insane as it always is in the morning.  I think he felt pity for me and jumped out of bed.

I went back to sleep for a bit but didn’t get up in time to get a shower or get dressed. I plopped down at my desk and got to work.  Normally things are quiet here but it would just be my luck I had a busy morning…

9:45 the doorbell rings.  It’s Heather to get chocolates from me.  I peak outside long enough to hand her keys and tell her to check my van trunk.  She then tweets:

Stopped at @amyjbennett house. She totally needs to get ready! Scary!

10:30 the doorbell rings again.  OMG, who else could it be?  People just don’t visit me.  I peak through the peephole and it’s FedEx!  Mail!  I decide to open the door with my scary RPattz hair and robe.  He’s like, uh, sorry!  I just laugh and sign.

11:30 the doorbell rings AGAIN.  I look through the peephole.  It’s someone I don’t recognize in a red car and figure it’s for Scott.  Probably another officer.  Crap.  I go to Scott who is in the shower (and previously sleeping in unable to answer the door).  He says Answer it!  I’m in my robe! I say.  So I throw on all my Cullen gear from last night that’s still sitting on the floor, try to flatten my hair down and answer it.  He’s like, sorry, I didn’t wake you up did I?  Hahahha…no, sorry.  I’m just a lazy housewife that just woke up. (didn’t really say that)

Yeah, so needless to say I’m getting a shower during my lunch hour and putting on lots of makeup and sticking lots of hair product in my hair just to feel a little bit better about myself.

    I sit in my pjs until late in the afternoon sometimes. It happens, especially working from home. 🙂
