Hastily written during a break..

"Hey, you still at the library? I'm bringing coffee and donuts"

I mentally flinch at what is in my contorted view an invasion of my personal ambiance. Slumped on a plush couch that I dragged from the lobby to my strategically situated cubical (I snagged an east facing view allowing some great rays and vitamin D influx), surrounded by mounds of scattered paper, volumes of books, and in my rolled-out-of-bed state I tried to delay what I knew is probably inevitable.

"uh.. why don't we meet up for coffee later? I'm kinda in the middle of studying" .. if you count staring out at my great view as studying.

"Oh come on, I'm already downstairs, take a break.. what floor are you on?"

After giving him directions I note the state of my surroundings, and worse... my own state.
Given that it was a Saturday morning, I rushed out and stopped at the nearest convenience store for a make-shift breakfast. Unfortunately, the only things that appealed to me were a light orange juice and a bag of Sour Cream and Onion chips.

I dove through my bag frantically looking for my mints while trying to tie up my unruly hair. Finding them, I shove a handful in my mouth and start crunching while looking for some perfume to dissipate any remnant of oniony odor. By now the mints have kicked in and I could feel the burning fumes through my nose and eyes bringing on a near violent sneezing fit that was only perpetuated by the clumsy sprays of perfume.

Looking down at my clothes, I realize I look like a walking advertisement for my school with the logo embossed on the shirt, sweatshirt, and even pants I wore. That couldn't be remedied.. but for future reference: must go to the mall more often, like normal people.

As I heard a distant door close and footsteps approach, I swept wrappers and empty bottles into my bag and chucked it under the desk just in time.

"Good Morning.. you look nice.."

"Oh you know.. just rolled out of bed" ..heh.

He shooed me over to make space for himself as he squeezed in on my couch... the one my arms still hurt from dragging. His arms stretched over spanning its back, his bulky shoulders took up most of my.. slumping.. space and blocked my light and view.

Claustrophobia anyone?
