An Out of This World Experience

This morning when my alarm went off at 5:30,  I slowly opened my eyes and a grin spread across my face at the thought of the day to come... and with greats amount of energy, yet ever so daintily, i skipped to the bathroom to brush my teeth.

Right...and then birds styled my hair and whistled a sweet morning tune. 

The more accurate depiction of my morning...the alarm went off at 5:30 (which really is an act of God smiling down on me, because usually i have to be at work by 5:15.  And the alarm going off at 4:15? That's just for the birds.  Not the same birds that styled my hair this morning...)

ok...my alarm went off at 5:30...i hit snooze until precisely 6:08 when my phone said that it was done trying to wake me up.  i slowly got out of bed...tripped over a pair of shoes i left on my floor last night and practically fell into the bathroom where i began to brush my teeth.  

Now, it's about this time that i heard my roomate's alarm go off.  She has this amazingly awful one that is the loudest, most obnoxious alarm clock sound i've ever heard in my life. Which...maybe i should invest in so that i don't hit snooze for 38 minutes.

I heard her switch off her alarm clock and then  i heard a sound that made me freeze, toothbrush hanging out of my mouth and eyes wide open (for the first time that morning).

All of a sudden there was a sound so loud that it was almost like it was completely covering me...it was like extreme white noise and i could hear this low voice saying a jumbled mix of things, none of which made any sense.

And in that moment i knew exactly what it was.  And i'm not even lying to you when i say that i couldn't move for fear for a solid 10 seconds because i was completely sure of what was going on.

An alien invasion.

I'm nothing if not level headed at 6 am.

I eventually realized that i wasn't going to have to start throwing glasses of water on foreign invaders and that what i was actually hearing is what i assume was anne accidentally switching the buzzer to the radio in an effort to be rid of the beeping sound from hell.

My bad.
