My mind awakes:
Brain control : Oh gawd… is it morning already?!? Ugh … ok Eyes, time to open.
Eye Department : Eyes open sir.
Brain control:: Alright body, let’s slip on out of bed.
Body control : [no response]
Brain control : Body… let’s go. It’s time to get out of bed now.
Body control : [no response]
Eye Department : Eyes closed sir.
Brain control : Wait … what? Why? Open the freaking eyes!
Eye Department : Eyes open again.
Brain control : Body, let’s go! Out of bed, now! Move it!
[Body rolls toward edge of bed and stops.]
Brain control : What the hell was that? I said out of bed!
Body Control : Nope.
Brain Control : Sorry?
Body Control : You heard me.
[silence]
Brain Control : This… IS… a joke, right?
Body Control : Dude. It’s five in the morning. What’s your problem?
Brain Control : I can’t sleep.
Body Control : And that affects me how?
Brain Contro l: I figured we’d just get up.
Body Control : Nope.
Eye Department : Eyes closed.
Brain Control : Are you kidding me?! … Open them!
Eye Department : Eyes open.
Brain Control : Ok… Great… Wonderful… Thanks. Now… body…?
[silence]
Brain : Body? … … BODY!
Body : WHAT?!?
Brain : It is… time… to get… UP!!
Body : Stop yellin’!
Brain : Okay. Then why are we still in bed.
Body : Your mom.
[silence]
Brain : What?
[silence]
Brain : Body… we NEED to get out of bed!
Eye Department : Eyes closed.
Brain : Oh, COME ON!
[silence]
Brain : Okay. Fine. You guys win. We’ll stay in bed.
Body : Sitting up.
Eye Department : Eyes open.
Face Control : Good morning Brain control. Initiating yawn sequence.
Body : Stretching arms and legs.
Brain : [confused] Ummm… ok then. Let’s do this.
Eye Department : Eyes closed.
Body : Systems shutting down.
[body falls to laying position]
Brain : What happened?!?!?
[silence]
Brain : Body? Eyes? Will someone answer me!
[silence]
Brain : I don’t get it. We go through this every morning. … … GET UP!!
Body : Bite me.
Brain : ?
[silence]
Bladder : Hey guys… ahh… kind of getting’ full down here.
Brain : Great. You hear that, Body?
Body : Not my problem.
Brain : Umm… it will be when you’re lying in it.
Bladder : Yeah, it will be when you’re lying in it.
Body : Shut up piss bag.
Bladder : That wasn’t very nice.
Brain : Body, let’s go. We need to get to the restroom.
Body : You do it.
Brain : It’s your job. I need YOU to move US to the restroom!
Body : Make me.
Brain : What do you think I’m try… oh for fuck’s sake.
Bladder : Almost full!
Brain : Liver, stop processing.
Liver : Sorry guy. Last batch was just filtered and sent down.
Brain : G-r-e-a-t.
Body : I’ll make you a deal. If I get up, we get coffee.
Brain : It’s a deal.
Body : Dark Roast.
Brain : Fine.
Body : In a mug, not a tiny cup.
Brain : Ok, ok… whatever you want, can we just pah-lease get up!
Body : No.
Brain : What?!?
Body : You’re shouting at me.
Brain : Ok. I’m sorry. Now, can we please just go before Bladder decides to release the flow?
Body : That wasn’t very sincere.
Brain : Really? You’re really going to do this?
[silence]
Brain : Ok. I am sincerely sorry for shouting at you, Body. I know you’re are very tired, but can we please move this human to the restroom?
[Brief silence]
Body : I’ll think about it.
Brain : . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Eye Department : Eyes… open?
I nearly choked on my coffee, trying to suppress a laugh at ‘your mum’.
Your ritual is very similar to mine, except my brain admits defeat so often.
I’m glad I could make someone smile with this.
This is literally what I go through every morning. My brain wakes up long before my body wants to move. Mornings are a chore.
Loved it
Way too funny
Thank you!! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
My body and your body must be in cohoots. Although, I can usually get the body out of bed BEFORE the eyes open.
lol! Yeah, I’ve done that… but then I usually stub a toe or bang a knee.
