I'm freelancing at a magazine three days a week this summer. I love it because the work is fun and my coworkers are amazing! Plus, it's nice to gussy up and rejoin society for a few months. But the thing I miss the most is my morning break ritual. You see, I usually get up around 7 to answer e-mails, feed the cat, eat breakfast, call my mom and dig into assignments. Meanwhile, my night owl boyfriend sleeps in until around 10 or 11. When I hear Erik stirring and click on the television, I take a little break to crawl back in bed with him and Monkey. It's by far my favorite 15 minutes of the day—a little chunk of time where my only purpose is to curl up with my favorite creatures on Earth. It's nice to know that, no matter what crappy turn might come my way, at least one blissfully happy thing happened that day.
