There's a lot that can be said for waking up early.

While not exactly a 9 o'clock rise (9:30 due to a phonecall, but I'm definitely getting up at 9 tomorrow! Really!), I have had breakfast, done my at-least once daily Pimsleur Cantonese lesson, made a phonecall and written two letters, and I'm just about to embark on my third, and it's only 1:30! Usually at this time I would be contemplating breakfast. Oh yes, and I also watched an episode of Roswell. But at least I have been productive!

Now just to write this last letter then I'm going to fix myself lunch and then I'll be off to the post office and then to the library to fill out a rather lengthy application form.
