Tripping Far Side

I'm impressed with myself. I make it into work every morning at 8:20 AM before the school bell rings. If you know me well, then you know that I am not prompt in the morning.

In the past, I have just been plain undisciplined for too many years, getting to work around 11 AM to noon most times. I even had trouble when my boss asked me to come in by 10 AM. Time to grow up; it's been many years since I had to stay up all night working on college computer science projects.

I'm glad to finally break this bad habit. (one more to go). I've been miraculously prompt for several months, even when I am crazy busy and get little sleep.

So yay for me. Waking up earlier means that I have to eat breakfast--I never did before. So I go to the local convenience store every morning to pick up a sandwich. Like this one. But they speak a different English here:

"The great thing about sandwiches is you can enjoy a variety of tastes with no fuss. Ham, lettuce, eggs, tomatoes, choose whatever you like depending on how you feel."

So I start every day confused. I also don't like when they use "etc." to list ingredients. And so my day teaching English begins....
