I’ve been having issues lately with the time-space continuum. Mostly when it comes to remembering what day it actually is when I wake up in the mornings. And this happens EVERY MORNING – only the names of the days change. My internal dialogue goes something like this:
Alarm: *midi of Knight Rider theme*
Brain: MOTHERFUCKERI DONOTWANTTOGETUP!
Body: hits off button and waits for alarm #2
10 minutes go by
Alarm: *midi of Cheers theme*
Brain: damn.
Body: turns off alarm
Brain: I guess it’s time to get on with Thursday.
Brain: OH MY GOD IT’S ALREADY THURSDAY! I HAVE SO MUCH WORK LEFT TO DO THIS WEEK.
Brain: Are you sure it’s Thursday?
Brain: Wait no, it’s Wednesday
Brain: HOORAY FOR WEDNESDAY! PANIC DOWNGRADED!
Brain: Aw damn. It’s only Wednesday… so many days left until the weekend…
Speaking for myself, I think hearing the Knight Rider theme first thing would make me want to run out the door as quick as I could. Actually, that’d make it the perfect alarm, now that I think about it 🙂
What I wanna know is, howja get midi files on your alarm clock? That’s not some high-falutin’ cell phone thing, is it?
Follow-up question: would the theme from Facts of Life, perhaps, get you up faster?
I use my palm pilot as my alarm clock, and got the midi files from freewarepalm.com. And if I woke up to “The Facts of Life” I may be tempted to hurt someone.
Interesting use of a Palm. I like it!
