I woke up and it was dark; it should NOT have been dark on my way to work. I had apparently turned off the alarm and slept more ………..about 6 or 7 hours more. I got up and, having no phone, I went to work; “better late than never! ! ! ”. The manager was a bit surprised, I think, when I showed up almost at the end of my shift. They had called someone in to replace me, sorting mail. I didn’t get in trouble and I didn’t let it happen again! Your poem to MyPoemList. Bri :)
