I gotta get up earlier.

I was in Magnusson Park this morning, happily watching some sparrows (still
not able to differentiate very well between sparrow species) when I heard
a bugle call drifting across the park. "Oh cool - you can hear Reveille from
the base, all the way out here."

Suddenly I realized that, if I could hear reveille at the base, it meant I was
supposed to be at work *right then*!

Oops!

Of course, it was as I was running over to NOAA, that I heard a call and then
saw a bird I've never seen before. But I couldn't stop. ARGH.

I have to get up earlier...
