How many of you have forgotten to change your clocks with the switch to or from Daylight Savings Time and shown up early or late for some engagement that day? I'll admit that I have once upon a time...and felt quite foolish showing up to church as it was letting out.
Well, here it is 3 days after the time change and I feel even more foolish. I slept on the light side last night due to having to get to work a bit early today for a training class, so I didn't want to oversleep. Like we normally do, Ed hit the snooze a couple of times and then I made myself get up & start getting ready. I took a slight detour into the computer room to check on the weather & such, got dressed, Ed got up, and I finished fixing my hair, etc. When I went downstairs to put my lunch together, Ed was curled up on the couch watching SportsCenter (a normal before-work activity). He looks up and says, "You do realize it is 6:30, not 7:30...?" I looked at him blankly and asked, "What do you mean?" He replied, "I thought it seemed rather dark out, so I checked the clock on ESPN and it's really 6:30. " This confused us to no great end, because we've made it to work without problems the past 2 days. So we either snoozed the alarm for much longer than we realized on those 2 days, or when setting the alarm last night, the time got boogered up.
So Ed is napping on the couch for another 45 minutes, and I get some free time to play on the computer (with my luck, if I tried to nap, I really would oversleep!). I know tonight will be "early to bed" for the "We are so not morning people" Morgans...!
