Today is a special day

Last evening Marina Fisher began writing her 10 page art history paper that was due today. She had procastinated slightly on friday and saturday, but by Sunday evening she had 5 pages of single spaced notes and was ready to begin wrting at 1 in the morning. This morning I woke up at 8 planning to start my day early and get on a good schedule for taking my 9:15 exams. At various points during the night I had awoken and sadly noted that Marina was not yet asleep. However, this still failed to prepare me for the shock as I was getting up that I would bump into Marina... going to bed. She took a short shower at about 8:10 and then prompty got into bed with her hair still wet and fell fast aslep. It is currently 4:30 in the afternoon and she is still very much asleep. The fact that today is rainy and dark is making things easier, but this is still an impressive accomplishment. I don't believe this event merits useless points since Marina was writing a paper and not say, playing pocket tanks. Still, even if she wakes up around dinner time she's going to be stuck in a nocturnal cycle for quite some time. Unless she manages to sleep until tomorrow morning, which would be pretty much amazing.
