  Speaker 1: You know, you can probably empathize with this, you two can.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: My alarm goes off at three o'clock in the morning,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: and the first thing you want to do is is
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: turn it off as quickly as you can so that
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: it doesn't, you know, continue to bug your partner exactly.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: My wife sleeps with some really high tech earplugs in
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: and usually it doesn't bother her, although sometimes you miss
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: the button the wrong way and it and then and
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: then so the button disappears from the touchscreen and the
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: phone just continues, you know, sound the alarm, and not
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: only does it sound an alarm, it flashes the flashlight.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: Well, it's trying to wake you out.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so I'm trying to get out of the room
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: as quickly as I can and turn it off in
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: the other room, in the dressing room. So that happened
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: this morning. And and you're just you're just kind of
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: in a daze when you get up at that early, right,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: You're just things are just not working right. And which
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: is partially why I get up that early, because I see, yeah,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: I need to get things working right by the time
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: I sit down at six o'clock or here, and so
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: I get up really early and the first So the
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: next thing I usually do is I stumble into the
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: bathroom and lean over the sink on my elbows and
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: just lean there with my head hanging down for five minutes,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: sometimes just you know, until I can bring myself to
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: them muttering. Sometimes sometimes you know, it's like and then
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: so finally you get up the enough energy and you say, okay,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: I got to start doing things, and you know, go
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: to the bathroom or shave or whatever you have to
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: do first. And and so so this morning battle arm
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: problem and then I stagger into the bathroom to lean
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: over the sink, and every single thing that was in
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: a drawer in the bathroom is now sitting all over
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: the counters, all over the edge of the tub, some
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: of it, some of it's on the floor. And I
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: just went, yeah, the drawers. So so there's a top
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: drawer that my kids use, They have their stuff in it,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: the middle drawer I have all my stuff in it,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: bottom drawer of my wife has her stuff in it.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Everything is out of the drawers and sitting on every
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: surface in the room.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: Where's Bill gonna mutter?
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Just I just kind of went, what what is it
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: I have? I have? And I still don't know.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: I've left the house and couldn't talk to anybody about
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: what happened.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: I have my suspicions that there was somehow a water
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: leak into the drawers or something, but I don't know.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: But I could, but I couldn't. I could barely find
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: a place to get to the sink so that I
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: could brush my teeth and you know, wash my face
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: a little bit.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: But it was just so you left everything out.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I mean because and it's really it's it
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: was just weird to see though. Imagine my confusion. Although
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: I have to say it woke me up. Sure I went.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: I didn't have to hang my head over the edge
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: of the sink and and mutter for five minutes. I
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: just went, what what the hell happened here? So that's wild,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: I guess. I guess I'll find out soon enough. But
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: it's yeah, it's it's getting up at three o'clock in
