beep-beeeeeeep *pause* beep-beeeeeep *pause* beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep
A school bus decided 6:00 am was a good time to honk outside of our building this morning. There was on-off but regular beeping for at least twenty minutes. It started with a double-tap, transitioned to alarm-clock-like beeps in steady sequence, and rounded off with full horn blasts for five seconds at a time.
And did I mention that the horn sounded like a dying clown horn? Honka-honka!
I almost ran out to the street to beat the blighter senseless. Needless to say, I didn't do that because I managed to convince myself each time that it was going to stop. Who honks for twenty minutes in the dead of morning and doesn't get the message that no one is going to respond except possibly a sleep-deprived mob?
I have trouble falling back asleep when rousted, too, so I barely slipped into semi-consciousness before the alarm went off. I seriously debated calling in sick, I was so zombified. I may still crash this afternoon.
HONKA HONKA.
