It turns out it’s something like 2 in the morning. So I went back to sleep.

The good news is that I got ready for work a lot faster then usual when it was really time to get up.

It's a good thing you aren't ordinarily cantankerous and belligerent, that really would have made the story even better....oh wait a minute....</p> Nice work DK, I am guessing you needed a couple of “White Lightnings” to get through the rest of your 23 hour day.

I got a similar story that involves somebody you know, though I must admit I was not 4 hours off.</p> <p>I was working for Z one time in Grand Island and I was supposed to pick him from his parent's house at 7:45 to go visit our client. I parked in his parent's driveway for about 20 mintutes waiting for him to come out. Z is never late so I was thinking I should go and ring the doorbell. I sat for a little while longer when I noticed my clock said 7:10. I was an hour early, and actually arrived at his house at 6:45. Needless to say, that extra hour of sleep would have done wonders for my hangover that morning.</p> Great story Dick.

I wish you would have pounded on his door with indignation that he was standing you up.
