I woke up at 3am last night, when my phone that I forgot to silence and was far to close to my head beeped very loudly as it got a text. Assuming that no one who actually cared about me would text at such an hour, I rolled over and went back to sleep for the next few hours. It wasn't particularly enjoyable after that rude interruption, but I still got up at the normal time and got all nice and ready for the day. Before leaving to catch the bus I had a few minutes to sat down to check e-mail, etc. Which was bittersweet, as the first message was informing me that due to icy roads, morning classes were canceled. Ordinarily a nice thing, an invitation to sleep in and enjoy, but when you're already wide awake and likely to stay that way it just feels mocking.
And that text message, that horrid sleep wreaking text message I didn't check? That was a message giving me early warning about the school closure.
