Waking up
I had possibly the worst wake-up experience ever today.
So, I am peacefully sleeping. Dreaming about touring a foreign country with some friends. There was also some project being done, but I already forget that detail. Towards the end of the dream, I'm in a fancy restaurant, with a lovely outdoor patio, eating lunch with Kaite and Melissa. We have some lovely, gracious waiters and are ordering a great meal. All of a sudden, my watch starts beeping unexplainably. Really loud. And annoying. I apologize and try to figure out why it's beeping. I get up off the table and try to fix it. I come back to the table and decide to remove the battery. It keeps beeping. At this point the girls are giving me dirty looks, and our meal has arrived and the waiters seem perturbed as well. I can't figure out where the beeping in coming from! I decide to SMASH my watch to pieces using a glass, and it STILL KEEPS BEEPING! ACK! In a desperate attempt, I throw my watch into the river, watching it float away. However, I STILL HEAR THE BEEPING!! WTF!! I make my way back to the table, utterly defeated.
At this point I wake up. To my alarm - which had been going off for the past half hour! Doh!
I have never slept through my alarm. Hit the snooze button multiple times, sure, every day. But never slept through it. It seems like because it was so integrated into my dream, I couldn't tell reality from sub-conscious. The brain works in fucked up ways. And I feel like shite this morning.
