It Can't Be Natural

how do people wake up feeling "refreshed"? it's a mystery to me. i wake up feeling totally groggy or less groggy. i am never cheerfully stretching my way into the day. and yet i am surrounded by these so-called morning people - my sister, my roommate, guests who swear up and down that they are not morning people (all a ruse to getinto my house, i tell you). and so invariably i find someone bouncing up and down on my bed, at some ungodly hour of the day, begging me to get up and do something. the only thing i really want to do then is strangle them but that would involve opening my eyes and that would mean i have conceded defeat. "go watch some tv or read a book," i mumble (i try to keep many distractions for the unnaturally chipper in the morning). "give me an hour, please." sister and roommate don't fall for this. they settle down and tickle my ear, stroke my arm, and "sweet-talking" me into madness. broken, i open my eyes and wonder what i did to deserve such suffering. then i wonder what the hell is wrong with these perky people. and these are the same people who will get into bed at 10pm and be asleep in two minutes. nothing will get them up (i have tried). they sleep so easily, they way too annoyingly. i'm just saying - HELP!
