Ways I've Been Woken

Samplings from the past:

  • chirpy birdies
  • that Mendelssohn Bambi-Meets-Godzilla morning song
  • NPR hosts
  • grabby, grabby sex hands
  • The Wichita Lineman
  • Grandma's Feather Bed
  • crack smokers and their smelly crack
  • what I thought was a hot air balloon being filled, but turned out to be the loud motor of a Chevy Nova
  • rain on my sleeping bag
  • Mr. Tumnus
  • crop dusters
  • boss poking my arm really really hard
  • Scottish piper and his bagpipes

This morning's selection?

  • roommate vomiting repeatedly

It could be either. One was feeling sick last night and the other went to a bar. Only one of them went to work this morning, but whomever it was didn't come and give me a good-bye kiss as usual.

That's probably for the best.

I get nauseated when I hear vomiting. Last year, my roomie was very very sick and vomited repeatedly each night for about four months. Our walls are thin, and my bedroom and the bathroom are so close they're dating, so each time he'd skip into the loo to spew, he'd yank the bathwater on to cover up the sound.

But I knew what he was doing, and was woken repeatedly with, "is he taking a bath? No, he's sick again."

It took me a few months to not feel sick to the sound of running water after that.
