You look over at the clock "UGH! I can't believe is Monday already. I can't go in like this. I'm calling in a sub, and getting some sleep." at this point you can't even tell if that was your inner monolog, or if you said that out loud.
You reach over and grab the phone off your work table, then dial the number for the university. "Hello, this is Doctor Katherine Anderson. I'm sorry, but I need to take a personal day today." you continue to go through the proper procedures to line it up so you can stay home and sleep. When they ask for a reason why you cant come in you lie and tell them you had the Flu over the weekend and are still feeling under the weather, just because that excuse is easier than trying to explain that you spent all weekend inventing the worlds first a shrink ray, and you must have just forgotten to sleep.
Once you get that all sorted out you put the little black Laser-pointer in the safe you keep under your rug. Ok, so its not the most original idea, but its still safer then just letting your important notes, patents, and inventions lay around all over the place, then you head up out of the basement and lock the door, and finally you head to the bathroom to get a much needed shower.
The hot water on your soft tan skin feels so good. You almost topple over as all your muscles relax. when you finish your shower you put on a pair of silk cream colored underwear and loose shoulder strap top that came with it, then walk out into the hall. as you make your way to your bedroom. your soft bare feet almost drag over the hardwood floor. at this point you look like something out of a zombie movie shuffling and shambling down the hall. once you reach your bed you peel back the comforter and sheet, and you pass out almost as soon as your head hits the pillow.
Later you wake up to your alarm clock going off. it's 4:00AM on Tuesday morning. You get out of bed feeling way better than you did yesterday, and you waste no time in getting ready for work. You put on a white blouse with a black suit jacket over it, a tight black skirt that stops just above the knees, dark stockings, and a pear of black strapless clogs.
Just before you head out you swing down too your lab and grab the Laser-pointer. You can't rightly say why you did this, but you thought nothing of it as you dropped it in your coat pocket before darting out the door.
