Daylight Savings

This morning I woke up at 6:30, pressed snooze until 6:45 and had to get up to get ready to go volunteer.  Upon waking up, I texted Alyssa to see where we should meet/when she was going to leave.  I put my contacts in, brushed my teeth, put on deodorant (a daily routine) and came back to my room.  I laid back down for those 15 extra (and crucial might I add) minutes of sleep.  When I awoke for the second time, Alyssa still hadn't texted me back which was somewhat concerning because at this point we had only half an hour until we had to be there.  I called her and when she answered it sounded as though I had just woken her up.  I started to explain that we had to be there really soon when she interrupted me saying, "The time change was last night, Maris.  Go back to sleep and I'll call you to wake you up."  Well now I felt like the biggest idiot in the world.  Here I was supposed to be enjoying my extra hour of life, doing whatever I wanted with it (sleeping) and now I couldn't even fully appreciate it!  It ended up working out and when we actually got to volunteering one kid had shown up at 7 instead of 8 and never actually made it because he went back to sleep.  Hope daylight savings time went a little better for the rest of you!
