Sleeping is no mean art: for its sake one must stay awake all day.
Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900), philosopher
Could somebody please tell me why smoke alarms always need to have the batteries replaced during the middle of the night?
Beep, Beep.
Pause.
I try to fall back to sleep.
Beep, Beep.
Let me pull the covers over my ear, so I can’t hear it.
Beep, Beep.
#$%&
I have to get up, drag out the library step ladder and disconnect the $#%@ smoke alarm and then attempt to go back to sleep.
