Remind me, when the power goes out, you not only have to reset the clock but you have to reset the alarm too! DOH. I realized the power had gone out when i got home last night but the vcr maintained it's program settings, i only had to reset it's clock. Went to bed and never noticed that the clock was flashing because it was flashing a time, not 12:00. Woke up in the night. Clock said 11 something. Woke up again later and i knew i'd been asleep for awhile because i don't move much when i sleep so when i wake up i'm often stiff. I was.
The clock was *flashing* 12 something. Hmmmmmmm....
got up, got my watch.
it was 3:45.
Reset the clock.
Fall back to sleep.
Wake up about 10 to 6... oh good got a few minutes to snooze.
Wake up at 6:30. Yikes!
Realize that although the alarm is turned on, it was reset to 12:00.
AND i realized that when i reset the clock, i had set it for p.m. not a.m.
Well it *was* 3:45 a.m. when i set it lol
All sorted. 6:30 isn't so bad. I didn't have to rush to catch the bus or anything. Still plenty of time to shower and dress and check email before the bus at 7 and here i am. Ready for Friday.

Even with all that, you managed to get up and going on time...

Sometimes our inner clock heeds our inner voice eh?

My inner clock usually does wake me within about 10-15 minutes of my alarm going off at 6. Luckily my inner voice realized that 10 minute snooze time was 30 minutes too long lol

My Mom said that it took here an hour and a half to get to work this morning because of some sort of trouble with the bridges not being plowed. I came straight here cause I figured you'd have the info on what happened. And you don't. I'm shocked :P

The old bridge was plowed and i'm sure the new one was but i got over the bridge before the horrible traffic so it seems. People that came in after me said the new bridge was very slippery which was what caused all the backup.
