What to do?

Do I want to wake up at 7 a.m. on Saturday morning, or to sleep in, but eventually wake up to the sound of dying frogs?

Ben and I can't sleep in all day, because we have a number of important tasks we must achieve on Saturday. We can set our work alarms. One beeps, the other plays classical jazz, they both go off around 7 a.m.

Or we can set the secondary alarm. Ben tells me it's supposed to sound like a breeze or a brook or birds or something. Something natural; I can't remember what. To me, it sounds like dying frogs or drowning ducks. What a way to wake up. I sit bolt upright in bed, and say, "Ben! Wake up and make it stop!"

As of 8:25 p.m. on Friday, I am inclined to wake up peacefully and early and have coffee and a croissant before we head out on our journey. If I stay up too late, however, I'll probably opt for the jarring croaks of the later alarm.

It's a brook, goof. At least that's what they called it.
