Dawn...
I have always hated being up before dawn. Be it from staying up all night, or getting up at some horribly early time, seeing the sky slowly lighten into morning has always felt unnatural to me, even in my youth when staying up all night was a common thing.
I had to get up at 1:30AM to do some testing on live systems during a scheduled maintenance window which runs between 2AM and 5AM. I had to drink a pot of coffee just to maintain focus and the stress level of running tests on live systems sucked, big time. I had to scramble a bit to make sure things were in working order when the tests finished.
I am getting too old for this shit. I'm totally wired from all the coffee, but I'm also exhausted. My writs are aching. I want to sleep, but there's no point in trying since I still have all this caffeine in me, and we have a house appraiser coming over at 9AM anyway. It's 5:21AM now, no point trying to sleep if I have to be up in a few hours anyway, right?
Damn, I'm tired.
