Oct 19- wake up call

No, this isn't a euphemism for something else...I really needed a wake up call this morning in my hotel room. I had an early flight out of Denver this morning and didn't pack my own alarm clock and the staff at the hotel I was in didn't leave me with a sense of trustworthyness so I didn't ask for a wake up call. I contemplated the clock radio/alarm clock on the nightstand, but it was looking a little shabby and I didn't trust myself to be able to set it right. And then I had an ahha moment...I could use my cell phone to set an alarm!

After at least 15min. of searching under every icon and scrolling down and back out and then down again I finally discovered the alarm setting hidden under some very random button. I set the time for 6am and crawled into bed for the night. I then spent the next 7 hours worried that I did it wrong, that it wouldn't ring loud enough, that I should have never tried it for the first time on a night where I had to catch a flight. Needless to say, I got no sleep last night. I kept waking up and looking at the bedside clock to make sure I didn't sleep through the alarm. I finally gave up at 5:45 and got into the shower. Just as I was getting out, the alarm went off. I guess I did manage to do it right. I'll definately try it again. Except, I don't remember where the alarm button is hidden on my phone. No seriously, I just tried again and spent another 10min. trying to find that damn icon and can't for the life of me remember where it is. UGHHHHH! I hate it when I have to get out the users manual.
