My $65 Mocha Frappuccino

So I've been all over the place, around and again recently. Finally moved into my new place, in a new city. Trying to get my way around while working shift work, and trying to have some semblance of a real life. It's going to happen. Slowly but surely I will make it happen.

So you know when you come across those things that make you smile, and think "huh, maybe there's something to that..."? Well, I had one of those moments today.

Every so often I like to check out my horoscope. I prefer to do it later in the day or the next day to see what was predicted for me the day before.

Let me rewind. I didn't sleep very well last night, not a rare occurance for me. There was a memo posted in my building that I would have to have my car out of the lot by 9am. With there being a lack of parking in the area, I thought I would wait until 9am to avoid the parking ticket for being on the street between 7-9am. When my alarm went off this morning, I promptly snoozed it due to a combination of sleep deprivation and temporary memory loss (why is this thing going off so early?). At 1045am I jolted out of bed to move my car. Since I was out, I figured I would go get myself a Mocha Frappuccino. When I came out with my java less than ten minutes later, I saw it. On my windsheild was a parking ticket. Now if I could have just stayed in bed folks, none of this would have occured, but no - I HAD to be up after going to sleep at 630am. Whatever. I am still learning this city, and I guess I won't be parking there anymore. $65 is one expensive beverage. This caffiene had better do wonders today.

So here's the cherry. I figured, I'd check out my horoscope while online today. It read as follows;

Virgo: Caffeine is not your answer. Seriously. Break that vicious cycle with water, air and SLEEP.

Guess I should have read that one just a little bit earlier.

Huh. Maybe there's something to that...
