I am Cursed by Being Robbed
It seems like every morning around 7:30 am some kind of garbage truck comes to pick up garbage. It might actually be only twice a week, but the length of annoyance makes it seem like all week. It always wakes me up during my last hour of sleep; and everyone know that is the best part! When I hear the truck pull up and start lifting the dumpsters, my teeth cringe. I want nothing more than to be able to transform into something big enough to crush it. To make it worse, I live in an apartment complex and there are a LOT of dumpsters around here. These trucks can be heard from my window no matter where they are in the complex.
On the days when the trucks don't come I am yanked from sleep by the sound of maintenance using a power tool. I guess it is legal for them to start making noise at 6 am, and they don't waste a minute. My apartment conveniently sits right above the most popular of all the maintenance garages. If they aren't using power tools, they are laughing and telling racists jokes as loud as they can.
I am cursed with being robbed of my last hour of sleep. Sometimes my mom even calls or text messages me at 7 am for reasons that don't warrant that early contact. I want to be able to enjoy this last hour of sleep and wake in peace from the sound of my own alarm because at least that sound was planned the night before.
