Awakening

   My phone began chirping at 9 A.M; horrid electric noise. I struggle to find it amidst my semi-conscious stupor and hit dismiss. Fifteen minutes later it chirps again. Then again after fifteen more minutes. My wife grumbles:
        "Would you just get up already and let me sleep?!"

        But I want more sleep too.

   I roll out of bed, carefully stepping around the floorboard heater , fan, open dresser drawers and my wife's luggage left on the floor from her recent trip to her parents'. As I dress I hear the baby cry. Good morning life.
