time warp
I'm not a morning person, but I've gotten into the habit of waking at 6am so that I can have a good hour to myself. It's great. A nice, warm cup of coffee in hand, snuggled by the fire, a time to collect myself, read and pray. I LOVE this time.
The other day though it was stolen from me. I was unusually tired, we had just returned from out of town and I wasn't feeling the greatest, but I'm still up. I situate myself and rest my head for but a second. My eyes close but not for long. I come to and I'm feeling ready to begin my time of deep spiritual study. I take a sip of my coffee, bracing myself for its heat... and it's COLD. Not even luke-warm, but disgustingly cold. I'm sure that there must be a malfunction with my coffee maker and I'm already upset at the manufacturer until my eyes meet the clock- 7am-a whole hour had been stolen from me. Weird. I'm still not really sure where it went. I think perhaps I have been the subject of time travel.
So if you can't find me tomorrow...you know where I am.

That happened to me this morning. My alarm went off, I was going to get up and get ready for 9 o'clock church, closed my eyes for what I thought was a second and then it was 9:05am. So I got up and 10:30 and went to 11:15 church. Where does the time go?
unfortunately that happened to me two weeks ago... i woke up at 8.03 when i was supposed to be to school by 8.00 oops, thank goodness this semester i have a first hour prep time. needless to say i have come up with a new morning routine which will hopefully prevent future happenings of that sort
