Eccentricities of the Early Morning

Beep… Beep… Beep… Beep!

That damn alarm clock’s going nuts again! It’s on a table halfway across the room. Covering my head with a pillow no longer works and it only gets louder. Maybe if I throw stuff at it, I can hit the snooze button, or, even better, I could knock it off the table into a blackhole, or atleast into a pile of crap on the floor. Obviously, I have crappy aim because i’ve missed it so many times that I don’t have anything else left to throw at it. My last hope is to attempt to stretch my arm out far enough to reach the off button. I pull my arm out from under the twisted covers, turn my body around on the bed, and stretch…

I’ve almost got it…

I can almost feel it…

CRASH ! I fell off the damn bed… again. My morning exercise routine is complete! Now for breakfast!
