Exhausted again

I had a very long day today.
4:00am- Went to sleep
7:15am- Woke up, checked e-mail, got dressed. Had to be at work at 10.
7:25am- Went back to sleep.
7:35am- Woke up, did usual sit-up routine, brushed teeth & hair.
7:45am- Drove to work
7:55am- Stopped by bagel bakery and sat in car for a minute to see if they were open yet. They were. Bought a bagel and cream cheese as a special breakfast.
8:00am- Got to work, sat down with calculus book and nummy special breakfast and pushed play on the season premiere episode of Queer as Folk my boss tivo-ed for me.
QAF SIDENOTE: All three dogs when mad every time I squeed, which I did a bit of. It's so THRILLING for me to actually be watching QAF on tv! Instead of having to wait for it to download (which I can no longer do) or waiting for the DVDs (which I'll buy anyway). But I have to say three things (not really spoilers):
1- TODD! SQUEEEEE! SOOOOO happy am I! *gigglefit*
2- Justin's smile is the sweetest, cutest, most adorable, most attractive thing I've ever seen in my life *melts completely*
3- I was slightly spoiled by reading the episode summary online and an article in my newspaper yesterday. But I'm glad I read the article- it made me feel a lot better about the worse plot points. ANd I am guilty of NOT recognizing a certain blond character's tiny picture which accompanyed the newspaper article. *shakes head pitifully*
9:00-ish am- Fridge repair guy came. I didn't know he was coming, but I did know the fridge wasn't working. So I showed him fridge. Boss woke up. Chica who lives in boss basement this week (sister of cute sneezy marine boy who lived in boss' basement a few months ago) woke up. They both avoided asking me what I was watching on tv 5 feet from the kitchen. Possibly because of the very naked boys fucking on screen. *blush* Boss' 90-something year-old mother didn't mention anything either when she briefly passed by around 9:45am. I kept having to stop because of the noise going on with the fridge repair and the peoples walking around eating breakfast.
10:00am- Finish the calculus lesson I prepared for tutoring today. Finished the episode- and was pleasantly surprised by it. I really should not have doubted the excellence that is QAF. Finished breakfast. And started work.
5:55pm- Finish work. Nonstop work. But got to play with moving files from one comp onto our new laptop so that was fun.
6:05pm- Photocopy calculus homework assignment at Staples on my way home.
6:15pm- Get home to find sister asleep so no calculus tutoring to be done. Lucky duck- she got to sleep. Poor thing only got 8 hours of sleep the night before. *is slightly annoyed* I ate lunch/dinner instead. Discussed vacation plans with parents.
7:30pm- Watched Ken on Jeopardy. I am fearful for him!
8:00pm- Watch American Idol while typing up and putting together the calculus lesson. I'm so glad my two top favorites are in the final two.
9:00pm- Watch Rob & Amber's wedding special thingy.
9:30pm- Finish putting together calc lesson. Sister still asleep. I started writing another one-a-day fic.
11:00pm- Not done with fic yet. Wedding was sweet. Dad got offline finally after having spent 3 hours trying to make plane reservations. They wouldn't take his free airline miles. Drat! So we're paying a lot but the good news is I'll be housesitting here for a week so nice happy private time to myself for a change. Yayness! I clean out catboxes and sweep basement. Then I begin to call American Idol now that the phone is free. Redial is my friend.
12:30am- I've finished one of the two episodes of Buffy that were on today and have called for Bo more than 300 times. I call it quits with the calling (pun intended, I suppose) and sit back to watch the other Buffy episode. The FINAL episode.
1:30am- I finish the Buffy series finale. Cried a little (even though I knew the outcome as I've seen Angel, there were still a few happy & sad reasons to cry).
1:45am- Help mother try to wake sister up. Does no good. She's still asleep. And I still need to finish this fic for tomorrow. It's only two pages along. But hopefully it'll go quickly. But because I want to dig myself a deeper hole, I'm typing out an account of my day here instead of working on it. GAH!
*scurries off to write madly* Luckily, I don't have to be up until 9am so I still have a few more hours until I completely drop dead. *crosses fingers* I totally confused my tenses there on that timeline... too busy to correct. Sorry about that. Stupid moi.
