Last night Sean set the alarm for 8:00am, because I was already in bed, and too lazy to get up and do it. So, after a night of blissful sleep, the alarm went off and we jumped out of bed. I wacked the alarm for waking me. Sean went to take care of business.
There’s something strange going on. It’s still dark.
In a flash I remembered that the alarm clock radio has a serious fault. If you set it for 8:00am it will go off at 6:00am. If you set it for 8:01am, it will go off at 8:01am. So, I apologized to my darling husband, who didn’t hear me cause he was still very much asleep despite walking around the house. When I came back in from taking care of my business, I found my darling husband had turned on the lights and the tv and the kettle and was getting ready to take his shower.
“You’re still asleep, arent’t you?”
“Huh?”
“Sweety, it’s 6 O’Clock in the morning. Didn’t you notice it’s still dark outside?? The alarm clock is broken. Sorry, I forgot to tell you.”
“Huh? What? Oh. Oh great, I’ll never be able to back to sleep”
And, he was right. I think I slept a little, cause I had dreams of being at Sean’s uncle’s house and pulling the covers over my head to keep the light out. But mostly I tossed and turned, waiting for 8 O’Clock in the Morning.
