Up at 9am today

Went to bed last night at 3am and set my alarm for 11:30am. I wanted to go to bed much earlier, but it didn't work out as planned. Unfortunately my annoying cat woke me up at 8:40am. He kept meowing non-stop. I said "NO!" from my bedroom and usually that stops it. He kept doing it over and over. So annoying. It was definitely no emergency. He had water, a clean litter box and food, so what's the problem. I think he was just bored and needed attention.

One problem last night is that my Air conditioner died. It kept running forever and would not cool down the house. I tried everything to get it working without any luck. The unit outside doesn't turn on, but it sounds like it's on inside. I have them coming out to check into it. Hopefully it's not expensive.

This morning my whole body ached, but no major damage done luckily. I was so extremely thirsty though. Can't remember when I was ever this thirsty. I really need to get a new water purifier cartridge instead of just drinking bottled water.

For breakfast I had Cheerios and 1% milk. cheerios out of all the breakfast cereals seems to give me the most energy. It lasts for a long time. On Cheerios i'm usually not hungry for 3-4 hours.

At 10am I went to D&W and got a salad and some water. That place is in an expensive neighborhood and the prices are robbery. They wanted $5 for a single container of fruit when it's $3.19 elsewhere (not Wal-Mart, very few can compete with Wal-Mart I imagine). A bottle of smart water is $1.79 and $1 elsewhere. These tortilla chips I like are selling there for $5.79 and only $3.69 at World Market. On Amy's frozen dinners they're $3.99 elsewhere, but here the same thing is like $5.79. I refuse to pay that high of a mark-up.

Now that it's 10:23 i'm going to start work. Luckily my office area in my basement is fairly cool during the summer. I can stay down there without the air conditioner on. It's not that hot out today anyway.

So far things are going ok, but I could have used an extra 2 hours of sleep. I'm going to get my orders out today no matter what.
