Some mornings just suck. There is no going around it. I actually woke up around 8:30 in the morning. I stretched out in bed to enjoy a lazy morning before working on a presentation. "BEEP!"
What the hell. If I lay here maybe it will go away. Stretch. "BEEP!"
Crap. I get up and go in the hallway outside the bedroom. As I look at the smoke alarm. I realize that I can actually reach it without a stool. hhhhmm... I am 5'4" tall, I wonder how tall people feel going through this hall... "BEEP!"
Okay. Okay. I pull off the smoke alarm cover and look at the battery. I hate real load noises in the morning... my ears have awhile to wake up, they are kind of seperate from my body & take longer. I wonder if it is going to make a horrible noise as I touch the battery. Better make it quick.
I pull on the battery it drops right between my eyes and slides down my nose & then hits the floor. I cover my face and yell @$%@$%%!
I run into the bathroom & look in the mirror. There is blood welling up between my eyes. %$@$^&*! I grab a tissue & blot the blood. "BEEP!" Are freakn' kidding me! Where the %$$@$ is this beep coming from!
I go back into the hall way, pick up the battery & wait. I am in stealth mode now. I wait.
"BEEP!"
I whip around and look at this white thing in the corner wall of the hall about 2 feet from the smoke detector. I go up to it and it is a carbon monoxide detector. I stop & think. Do I feel light headed... @$%^ if I know I just got pegged by a freakn' battery. I notice the window is open & the wind is hitting it... so unless the whole planet is about to die from the lack of oxygen I'm fine. "BEEP!"
^(^(*%*%&%^$!!!! I start pullingt away at the cover, it takes a second. I rip out all the batteries! I feel awsome. I have killed the noise maker! I look at the cats. They are just sitting there thinking I am crazy. I start to think maybe they planned this...
I go back into the bathroom and look at my face. Yep. There is a gouge between my eyes and my forehead is strating to swell. I go and get my coffee. What a great beginning to a day.
