Ummm - Wow?

When I was packing to come to my parents house yesterday, I stupidly put one HPT in my bag.  I figured if this morning my temp was up (13 DPO) I might want to test.  I know I said I didn't want to take the test at my parents house, just because it's strange, but whatever, I was fully expecting my temp to plummet this morning and AF to show up tomorrow (she showed up on Thanksgiving and Christmas, so I figured Easter would be no exception).  To my shock when I work up to take my temp (about 30 minutes later than normal because of the time change) my temp was back up.  I'm not sure why but I decided to take a test.  It was from the first batch that I bought off the internet right when we started trying so it's pretty old, but still several months away from being expired.  I set it on the counter and sat down on the floor to read a book for a few minutes so I wouldn't be tempted to look.  I waited about 3 minutes, I didn't have the exact directions for this type of test, but I figured that should be long enough.  At the end of 3 minutes, I really thought about throwing the test away without looking at it because I knew that just seeing one line would be crushing.  Although, really, how could I do that?  I would spend all day thinking about it. 

OMG - I saw two lines!!!!  I can't believe it.  The second line was of course lighter, but it was clearly there.  I have never, ever, ever, seen a second line, so of course at first I thought I was imagining things.  I almost thought about going back to bed without telling J, just in case I was crazy.  But instead I woke him up and told him the news.  Now I can't go back to sleep - my mind is racing :)  I'll have to go out to the store sometime today to buy another test so I can take one in the morning just to make sure the line is getting darker.  Wow - I am just in total shock.  I'm crossing my fingers that tomorrow's test is darker!
