A is for ALARM

Alarm clock. This morning my alarm clock went off at 7:15. I have to leave for work at 7:50. Why would I set my alarm so late and only give myself 35 minutes to get ready for work, you ask? Let me fill you in. My parents flew home from the lovely Rexburg, Idaho yesterday after attending Bekka's graduation from BYU-Idaho. Their flight got cancelled from Dallas to Greenville and ended up flying into the Charlotte airport. And yours truly got to go pick them up...at midnight. Mind you, my bedtime is 10pm and Charlotte is 1.5 hours away from Greenville causing us to get home at 2 in the morning. This is why I allowed myself to sleep in as long as humanly possible this morning. But this series of unfortunate events turned out to be an awesome adventure. Wanna know why? Because I got to see some of my best friends from college, Katie and Ashley Gustafson, who live in Charlotte. Not to mention their sweet parents and little brother Clark! Kyle and I got to spend about 2 hours at their house before we went to the airport to pick up my parents. It was great to see them one more time and catch up before they head back out to school for spring semester!

Moral of the story: When life gives you lemons...make lemonade, but only if it's pink.
