Tonight, I decided to put batteries in the digital clock I won in a raffle several months ago. I've been using the alarm function on my cell phone to wake me each morning, but wouldn't it be good (and more adult) to use an honest-to-goodness clock?
It took me a while to figure out how to set the time, and, in fact, I never did because (as I learned later from the manual), several minutes after being activated it sets itself via a signal from the "US Atomic Clock in Boulder, Colorado" and not, as I thought for half a second, some newly untapped psychic powers on my part.
I'm not certain that I set the "2-minute crescendo alarm" correctly, so just to be safe, I set my cell phone for tomorrow morning as well.
I used to hate Sundays, a day I'd spend dreading the approach of Monday. But these days, Sundays aren't so bad.
