As I was snoozing my alarm clock this morning, I noticed that it was ringing ten minutes before it was supposed to.
I programmed my first alarm for 7:30 but it went off at 7:20,
7:45 buzzed at 7:35,
8:00 : 7:50.
I thought to myself, "It's like my alarm is trying to get me out of bed early," hit the snooze button again, and crawled back under my down comforter.
When I finally did wake up (8:03) I kicked myself for being such a sleep glutton and ignoring the message from my alarm clock. This is the sight that greeted my sleepy eyes:
Fog!
Fog is by far my favorite type of weather, and this is one of the only times I have encountered it here. Combined with the light of the just-risen sun, it was magical.
I rushed through my morning routine even more than I would normally have to after waking up at 8:03, hopped in my bat mobile and rushed down to the local beach to try and snatch a photo of the fog rolling in over the water. On the way, I stole a photo of this lady sweeping. She caught me and gave me a dirty look, but it would have been worth it if the photo had been any good. ;P
Despite my best efforts, I had no luck. By the time I got to the beach, the sun had burned off what was left of the fog.
I still enjoyed a couple lovely minutes at the beach, snapping off photos from my car (lazy girl that I am) before rushing off to work.
The final straw in my lovely hat of a morning was opening my mail. I haven't checked my personal mail box in awhile (sick of campaign junk mail) but am glad I did this morning.

All in all, this Monday morning has turned out to be a great start to my week.
