Re: You know you've overdosed on FIRST when...

Let's see how did this go...
You find out at 9 p.m. the night before that you are picking up and delivering the trailer to the school for a big outreach downtown. So you oversleep by 15 minutes. Those are the 15 minutes that you would use to go hook up the trailer and get it down the road. You get ready and drive to the warehouse but instead of pulling in, you keep on driving until you are 1/2 way to school and realize that you have forgotten something. It's rush hour traffic so you are bumper to bumper as you turn around to retrieve the trailer. When you get to the warehouse you find out that your back left tire on your suv is totally flat. Flat. As in pancake. Luckily there is this really cool air compressor that is used for the trucks that haul feed. So the tire fills up really fast and off you head to school..and you're only 4 minutes late all total. Without coffee even.
