Murphy was an optimist.

Well, so far my morning has been an excellent example of Murphy's Law in action. I woke up, rolled over to look at my alarm clock, to discover it blinking 12:11 at me. Minor panic ensues as I get up to go look at the clock on our VCR, since that automatically resets itself when the power comes back on. I *swear* that clock said 7:10am. So, I called and left a message at work that I'd be running late, since I'm usually on my bus by 7:10am, and I still needed to get dressed and all that good stuff.

When I went in to reset the alarm clock, I woke up lerryn, who looked at the blinking numbers and did a minor panic himself until I told him the VCR clock said 7:10am and to go back to sleep. He doesn't get up til 7:30am, usually. :P Well, the clock wasn't being cooperative with my attempts to reset it, so Lerryn fixed it, and went back to sleep. I got ready to go to work, and after about 10 minutes heard the alarm go off. I looked a bit puzzled when Lerryn walked out of our room, and he commented by way of explanation, "Murphy's Law seems to be going on this morning."

So, I went out to my car, and headed for the park and ride. Glanced at the clock in my car, which read 6:35am. HUH? At that point, I was already at the park n ride, and decided to just not worry which clock was screwed up, my car clock or the one on the VCR. So, by the time I got to my building, it was actually 7:10am. *sigh* I hope the rest of the morning goes much better. And Lerryn, love, I'm sorry for waking you far earlier than you needed to be up.
