D'OH-Light Savings!!!

Yesterday, as I'm sure you all know, pretty much all the news programs were filled to the brim with news about the Pope's variously worsening condition. Anecdotes about his life, etc. So when Andrew got home from work, we went to a party for one of his military buddies. They call it a "wetting down"-- it's basically a tradition where, when you get a promotion, you spend the amount of your first upgraded paycheck on a party. This guy did a Louisiana tradition-- a crawfish boil. Well, pregnant me did not get near enough food out of those little mudbugs to satisfy me and the twins. So we went to get "meat"-- steaks! Yum! And we didn't watch the news at all--we watched silly movies (including the ever so stupid "Road Trip") so we totally missed that today was Daylight Savings Time.

Andrew needed to be at work at 7. We got up at 6. He showered, I made breakfast. We were sitting down to enjoy said breakfast and the lady on the Weather Channel cheerfully said "I hope you remembered to set your clocks back!!" DOH!!!!

So Andrew was 30-ish minutes late.

I don't think I've ever screwed up Daylight Savings before. There have been times when I forgot about it, but never on days when it actually mattered.

So now I feel about an hour behind all day. Not that it matters that much cause I'm mostly just hanging out waiting for Andrew to be done, and we'll head back home later. On the road again!! This may be the last big road trip till the babies are here and ready to roll. I'm checking with the doc this week; you're not really supposed to go out of 1 hour from the hospital when you're past a certain phase of pregnancy.

Daylight savings. Piffle. I've saved enough daylight lately.

p.s. you guys got very naughty on me yesterday with those phrases! Whew!! I'm going to get some weirdos from google searches over the next couple of weeks thanks to those comments! :)
