I need a vacation


Joe and I only have one alarm clock. Every night I set the alarm to go off at 5:25am for him. When it goes off, I reset it for 6:40am for me. This morning it went off at 5:25 as usual and I reset it (or so I thought). I woke up and the clock said 8:09!!!! So I fly out of bed, run into the shower, quickly wash myself, jump out of the shower, dry myself off, throw deoderant on, clean the old makeup off my eyes, put face lotion on, grab my clothes from the closet, run into the computer room all ready to send an email to work telling them that I overslept and would be late and I see that the time on the computer is 7:11am??????!!!! huh? So I look at the clock on the phone...that also says 7:11. Hmmm...
So I breath a sigh of relief and realize that instead of setting the alarm time, I reset the clock time on the clock radio an hour ahead.

Sigh. This is going to be an interesting day...

On a positive note, I was able to slow myself down and enjoy a cup of coffee!

  1. I have done that, too! It's so disorienting, and when you finally realize you've screwed up, there's always a little twinge of disappointment, but it's squashed by the relief that you're NOT actually losing your mind :) Sorry you had a rough morning, but glad you got to kick back and enjoy your coffee!
