What I Want Is What I've Not Got

Here's what I wanted for today:

• To sleep more than three hours last night.
• To prepare for my lecture tonight, as I'm being observed by my supervisor.
• A shower before class.
• A nap.
• A less hectic start to my week.
• To write a post about expectations and life - something deep and meaningful.

Here's what I got for today:

• Three hours' sleep.
• Winging my lecture tonight.
• No shower as I have to be at school early.
• No nap.
• A horribly hectic day that has not let up since the alarm went off at 6:30
• A post that is about nothing important and is very shallow.

My apologies to any of you who had expectations of me that were not met. I'll try to do better next time. Until then, I'll try to sleep. Sleep = mood improvement, I hope.

P.S. Brownie points to the reader who can identify where my title came from.

Well, my first thought was that you were reversing Sinead. But knowing you, it's much more likely to be a DMB title, I'd guess.
