The black-out curtains strike agian

This morning I heard Jon get out of bed around 8am or so. I had the day off today so I thought, "Oh, I'm feeling restless anyway, I'll be up in a few minutes."

My next thought was me rolling over about 3 hours later, looking at the alarm clock, and thinking "WHAT?!?! How in the WORLD did I sleep in that late?"

I stumbled into Jon's office and immediately noticed how bright it was in the office; after all, it was close to noon. I then looked into the bedroom and saw that it appeared to be about 6am in there (well, in terms of light). And then I realized: the black-out curtains once again. Sleep cycles, which are mostly related to light I believe, are totally off in that room. I need to remember how important it is to set an alarm!

Tomorrow is another day with an empty morning. I do know now what I didn't know yesterday- sleeping in has taken on significant possibilities in that room and, unless I'm interested in eating lunch when I wake up, those possibilities should not be explored! Weekend alarm clocks, here we come....
