Thinking of changing my number…

19 May 2008

Beep beep – beep beep

I grunt and open my eyes.

Oh, you have to be kidding me. Why can’t the guy stay asleep like ordinary people?

I looked at the clock. 04:50am. WTF?

I picked up my phone and read the message:

Good morning. I recently read that you had an introduction to the almost nocturnal time of 5:50am. Not wanting you to miss out, I thought I would introduce you to 4:50am – being the loving cousin that I am. Wishing you a lovely Monday morning, Russ x

I replied, as anyone would:

You little shit

I was now somewhat confused. I had been dreaming and needed a while to work out what was real and what was not. On what had Lyndsay asked my advice as we passed in a shop? Did I actually have any new foundation that I was very excited about wearing to Lauren’s wedding? And if not, could I still discern the brand of the magic makeup although I had already left dreamworld? Would I actually be able to get to sleep again any time soon? But more importantly, what would be a fitting punishment for that bloody cousin of mine? The little shit.

So now the moral of the story should be not to befriend people in other timezones…and don’t ever tell Russ about it.
