Ahh...good times, good times.

LOL

The time my landlord didn't bother to inform me that she was having the roof redone was a bit crap. In failing to inform me of this, she also completely failed to mention that (for reasons I still can't fathom) they'd be starting at about 9AM on a Sunday. So I'm woken up by people clomping all over the roof and ripping off shingles (2nd floor bedroom), with no idea what this racket is.

Although waking up after drinking heavily and realizing you're not sure where you are is up there on the list as well.

First, wake up to one of the most painful charley horses you've ever had.

Spring to your feet to try to take care of it.

Open your bedroom door to try to help walk it of.

Take two steps, then pretty much faint from orthostatic hypotension because you've been laying in bed asleep for the past nine hours.

Notice that through some primal response, you seem to have screamed and now seem to be moaning, though everything's black and you can't move.

Wake up again to feel your face and knee on fire and notice you seem to be starting to pee yourself.

Limp into the bathroom to pee in the toilet.

As you are peeing, look in the mirror and realize you have three scrapes on your face. Look down and see blood running all the way down your leg. Realize you have no idea how that wound happened, since carpet shouldn't cut that deep.

Finally, remember that you are living with a couple of your good friends, who probably heard your screams, and while they don't seem to be coming to your aid, wonder how you're going to explain your face and the screams when they wake up, especially since you don't 100% remember if you were actually screaming.

At least it's effective. Better than coffee.

So you go out to see why your friends didn't answer, and notice all the blood everywhere. You then find your roomates' lifeless bodies, which are riddled with knife wounds. Shocked, you stumble backwards, and trip over a bloody butcher knife... which has fingerprints on it... your fingerprints.

Man... that *would* be the worst way to wake up.
