Me and JB 105

The phone rang in my hotel room. What time was it anyway? I glanced at the clock and realized it was 7:30. I had only gotten two hours of sleep. Wonderful. I picked up the phone with a stuffy voice.
“Hello?”
“This is your wake up call!”
“Frankie?”
“Yeah! Wake up! Our flight leaves in forty five minutes!”
“WHAT?” I shot up out of bed.
“Forty five minutes! Hurry!” Frankie hung up and I flew across the room and into the the bathroom. There lay three shopping bags from earlier that morning. I threw on some clothes, brushed my teeth, and ran down the hallway. When I reached the elevator, Frankie and Nick were already there.
“Ready?” asked Nick. I nodded.
“How much time do we have?”
“Half hour!” said Frankie. Oh dear god.
I sat in the limo watching….everything. I was half asleep. Ice cream and video games at one, swimming at two, and shopping at three. It couldn’t of gotten any better. The only downer was that I was sooo tired. So I pulled an all nighter being awake. Now I was going to pull an all dayer asleep.
