Time warps

So Roran has been here for a couple of weeks now (two today actually) and Jess and I have noticed a strange phenomenon around him: Time warps.

It is very strange. As an example, sometime this week (see, time warp, I'm not sure what day it was) we decided we would get out of the house because we haven't been out of it for about 3 or 4 days. We decided we would go to the mall to get some free air conditioning and a little bit of exercise. It was about noon when we decided we would do this and about time for a feeding. So I figured we would make lunch, feed Roran and then be off for a couple of hours.

The next thing we know, it is almost 6pm, time for another feeding and we had just finished lunch. And we hadn't made it out of the house yet. Huh? How did that happen? Are we starring in our own personal version of Groundhog Day?

We have several examples of this, but that is fairly typical. Even when we get everything right, we manage to lose at least a couple of hours. We can't explain it any other way than Roran is a time warp. A small tear in the space time continuum or a miniature Event Horizon.

Strange things are afoot at the Circle K.
