I woke (for no apparent reason) at 2.11am. This bird, in the trees at the back of our home, was calling for it's Mom, Dad, brother, sister, aunty, uncle, cousin - NOBODY is coming you stupid bloody bird. After nearly 2 hrs of calling - YOU ARE ALONE IN THIS WORLD and if you continue the way you are, you may not be of this world for much longer.
Nobody loves you - go to sleep - properly. Don't lull me into a false sense of thinking that you have finally given your last call for someone to come and stay with you. If I did love you at the beginning of the night, I friggin' HATE you now. At 2.11am, I had had approximately 90 mins of sleep - it is now 4.10am and I have still only had 90 mins of sleep.
If we were still in South Africa, I would have taken our 38 Special and shot you, but we no longer own a gun so I have to make do with putting the pillow over my head but somehow you manage to penetrate that with your call of desparation.
I NEED TO SLEEP - can you please, pretty please, SHUT UP !! I really would appreciate it - especially at 2 or 3pm this afternoon when I am trying very hard to stay awake at work. Or even worse, at 8.30 when I trying to keep my eyes open to finish with my last client.
(Maybe the bird can read - I haven't heard a call for a couple of minutes so I am going to sneak back to bed and hopefully get another 90 mins of sleep before I have to get up and face the day !)
Update : That stupid bird went to sleep but as, by that time of the day, dawn was breaking, all his 'friends' who had completely ignored him fron 2am - 4am, decided that they would get up and whistle us into a new day - BLOODY STUPID BIRDS - don't they know that some of us have to get some sleep so that we can work to put food on the tables for our little cherubs !
Today should be a fun day - not !!!
Hilarious!
ReplyDeleteWe have a bird that used to do that outside our bedroom window !!!
ReplyDeleteNot no more thou !!!
Not sure but it could be a Koel. My sister has been complaining about them too in another part of qld. I think we are used to them here and hardly hear them anymore. It will move on as this is just part of its migration.
ReplyDeleteHope you get some sleep soon.
