AM? PM?!?

6:00 scheduled awake time
7:00 I planned on being to the school to do my pre-clinic reading
7:50 clinic starts... unit 3 is empty... "Is alyse here? Has anyone seen alyse?"
8:20 I woke up and glanced at my clock wondering how much more glorious sleep I would be privileged until my alarm went off at 6 am... "WHAT??? 8:20.. That's impossible!! WHAT HAPPENED?!?!... OH NO!!.. Clinic started." these were among my thoughts...
I got up in a crazy frenzy and threw on my just washed scrubs, some boots to tromp through the snow, and my glasses. I quickly reached under my glasses with a little tissue to wipe the leftover mascara from my sleepy eyes when I decided I would call the clinic before rushing to my car.
8:23 I called.
"Is this professor Costley?"
"Where the heck are ya?"
she giggled a little... because she knew EXACTLY who would be calling right then.
"Oh, I just woke up. My alarm was on the wrong AM/PM. I'm so sorry. Do you want me to hurry over, or should I just come to afternoon clinic session?
"Just come in the afternoon.."
"okay"
"I'll only take ten points off your grade."
"okay."
"I'm just kidding..." she giggled a little more.
"Well I deserve it because this is ridiculous. I'm so sorry. I'll be there this afternoon."

That is the way Spring semester 2009 began.
