What’s it take to get a good night’s sleep around here?  I went to bed at 11:15 and woke up at 12:30 to an annoying little tune that sounded like a cell phone ringing.  Woke up DH and we started investigating only to find that he had somehow set an alarm on his cell phone.  His “wake-up” call interrupted what had been a deep sleep up to that point.  DH woke up at 3:30 to get ready for work and couldn’t find his keys.  The resulting “search and find” only took five minutes but involved turning on lights and rummaging around the bedroom until he found that he’d knocked them behind the dresser while trying to deal with the unrelenting “alarm” at 12:30.  Dozed off again only to jump out of bed at 4:15 from a crack of thunder that threatened to split the house wide open and let the downpour wash us all away.  When my alarm actually sounded at 4:45, I had to pee so bad there was no hope of waiting it out so I gave up.

Busy day today.  School, followed by an extra hour and a half of ESS, followed by an evening of making coffee cakes for school tomorrow.  Maybe I can get it all done fairly early and make an early night of it.
