1 minute turned into an hour

Like every other day, the alarm on my phone went off at 5:30 am. I rolled over and hit the snooze to get another 9 minutes of "sleep". Nine minutes later the snooze goes off and I roll over once again to turn the alarm off. I'm laying there telling myself just stretch out and get your body ready to get out of bed. I tighten my muscles a couple time and then think relax for just a minute before you get up. When I finally pried my eyes open I could see light outside so I knew I was in trouble. I went in the kitchen and sure enough it was 6:54 am. Knowing there's no way I'm going to get cleaned up and make it to work on time, I turn and head for the bathroom to brush my teeth, shave, shower and get dressed. I'm out the door at 7:30 am and my only hope is that traffic will be light and that I won't get to work too much after 8:00 am. That didn't quite work out either! There was an accident in one of the intersections so now everyone has to merge down to 1 lane to get by. Don't you just love the people that wait until the very last minute to merge (but that's a different rant)? Anyway, I got to work about 8:15 am and after a rough start, my workday hasn't been too bad.
