Last nite, or probably the wee hours of this morning, I awoke from a string of interesting dreams, to hear the sound of an alarm go off from across the street. It was a house alarm, and I'm pretty sure that's the first time I've heard one go off in the middle of the nite.
And couple of minutes later I heard a CAR alarm go off (even though those rambunction rascals always make noise, those motherfuckers.)...[!]
What frightened me most about this, sadly, was that the house alarm was loud ringing, followed by a monotone, mechanical-sounding robotic voice repeating 'Alert! Alert! Alert!' (it was creepy), as opposed to the fact that a stray bullet might've torn through my wall and landed in my brain. For some reason noise always seems to come before sight for me. I mean, for instance, when I was little I was scared shitless of the show 'Cops', because in the opening credits the cop always said, 'Mr. Shapiro, please get out of the car.' (Shapiro=my last name, hence also my fathers).
I think that if I were to reach the brink of insanity, I'd rather have hallucinations than hear voices in my head.
