BEEP BEEP BEEP SMACK Rand pulled the blanket up over head after furiously silencing the alarm. She didn’t want to get up. 0415 was just too early, today. Her bed was warm, Randy was sleeping…she could hear the rhythmic in and out of his breath. Forget her run, not today, she was just going to sleep. And just as she was about to drop back off....VIBRATING SNORTS. Her eyes snapped open under the heavy blanket and she cringed. Randy was snoring…she’d never get back to sleep. Throwing the blanket off, she huffed as the cool air hit her and she got up, putting on her running clothes, set the kitchenette up to make Alden’s tea and Roger’s water later and then poured a large bottle of ice water for herself. She stepped into the corridor and down the hall to her closet of an office. She turned on the computer console and scanned all the updates/requests/messages for anything important. Seeing nothing needing her immediate attention she downed half the water and then stepped back into the corridor and walked back past the quarters and toward the turbolift.
