....padding down the hall, into the living room, Sleeply flop a finger on the big square POWER button. The TV fades in to blocks of colors eminating a bpoooooooooooooooo sound checking, waking anticipation. it goes for half an hour, but you had been lying in bed thinking about 'it' for 5 whole minutes. curling your feet to make pajama toes the waking starts. waiting...waiting.. waiting...sniff..waiting..waiting...sniff...waiting...sniff..sniff...picking..eating...(looking around to make sure no-one just saw that)....waiting...waiting...waiting..then BOOM the national anthem jumps you... Here we go.. here we GO ... aw man HERE WE GO!! HEEEREE WEEE GOOOO! then...then.. BOOYA YAY! The Best start to antother Awesome DAY
