I woke up late today. I wake up at 5:15 in the morning on weekdays and usually have a lie-in weekends. But I don't know why upon waking up I noticed that I did not set my alarm clock? I remember setting my alarm clock to my waiting time. Or was it only in my dream? I almost was not able to catch my carpool. Phew! It feels uncomfortably to be working without a bath or shower. Did you experience this?

Oh wow, that must have been a rush! It’s the worst feeling when you wake up late and everything feels out of sync — especially when you’re not even sure if you set the alarm or just dreamed you did. I’ve had mornings like that before too — going out without a proper shower just feels off the whole day. But now that I’m retired, I have to say… that’s not my concern anymore. I still find myself waking up around 4 or 5 in the morning — old habits, I guess — but these days I just roll over and go back to sleep until about 7 or 8. No alarm clocks, no mad dash. Just peaceful, slow mornings. One of the simple joys of retirement!

Yes, once in a while I'd oversleep and go to work without a shower. I didn't like it.

I'm sorry you were running late. I was rarely late for work.
