It's Dark

The only thing missing is my computer
It's dark.   It's dark when I wake up.   It's mostly dark when I get to work.   And starting next Monday it will be dark when I get off from work.   I work in the basement.   It's dark.   I have no windows down here.   I never know when the sun is shining.   Or when the rain is falling.   Or when the aliens land.   Or when the aliens are hovering.  I have no windows. 

I feel like a prisoner to the dark.  

Good thing I'm not afraid of the dark.

  1. Some people are okay with that- I need sunlight or I feel tight all day!

  2. I always loved Washington's dark winters and northern proximity that made late sunrises and early sunsets. I miss that.

    1. I don't mind so much the morning or the early sunsets, it's the inbetween part that's kind of a bummer!

  5. Our office has windows. Unfortunately, my desk is in the darkest corner, furthest from the light of day. It makes for a hard winter!

  6. I so feel for you. My old school: left home in the dark; worked in a classroom with no windows; ate lunch in a teachers' room with no windows; used the bathroom in a room with no windows; stood in the hallway between classes with no windows; and drove home in the dark. Fortunately, during track season, I got to see the sun for a while during practice.

    You should get one of those lamps that is like the sunlight.

    1. You are a great friend, Lisa. But who will warn me of the zombies when you move? :(

  9. I don't like when it gets dark so early and it takes forever for the sun to rise in the morning. I don't think I would like working in the basement; I do like looking out the window.

    1. The basement gets me away from the crazies that work upstairs - that's why I like it :)

  11. Yuck! I would not like being in the dark all the time, but as you said, at least you won't have to see when the aliens land. LOL!

  13. I hate basements. I hear they don't have them in Texas. Guess where we'll be retiring?
