i thought i had it this time. the alarm clock in my room is visible from the bed and was set to go ff at 7am. so i wait what seems to be days and it never goes off, and whats worse is the sun has yet to come up. at least if the sun was up i would have an idea what time it was... i look at the alarm and see nothing... my lazyness from the night before made me put cloths in front of it... now that i am fully awake and playing hide and go seek with father time i decide to end the game and just get up and look at it.. but not before a glass of water. so up past the clock i go without looking at it, into my kitchen right next to two clocks i pass not glancing at them i grab a glass of water drink it and return to bed forgetting to look at the clock.
at this point i remember thinking well play time well played, your skills of eluding me are well toned. but i have something it didn't expect, a phone!! so i grab my cell and watch it for a few just staring at it before i remember to turn it on if i want it to tell me the time. i turn it on and after it sends forever loading my body tells me to go to the bathroom and pee. darn the water... so i turn the phone back off god knows why with out looking at the time pass the alarm again and go to the bathroom. i come back in and lay down again and notice i still have not looked at the clock. angered i jump back up to see the time.....12:01am. here i had been thinking it was 5 or 6 but no... 12:01. i tossed myself on the bed and threw my blankets on and went back to bed...
Well played father time... well played.
Indeed! Time gets the best of all of us at some point.
