A short story about a slice of life from me.
An ear shattering sound goes through my skull. I quickly turn off my alarm. I am awake.
I put on some music and turn around for a while. Just before I fall asleep again, the sound is there again.
I put it on snooze and get dressed for the day.
As I walk to my living room, before entering my kitchen, I get the feeling I forgot something.

I ignored it and grab a cup of coffee. Living at a busy road means some people "blasting" music in their car through the street.
After a while, I decided to take a look. It is not a car, it is my alarm again.
After turning it off again, I see my stepbrothers are also up.
They come running down and immediately sit in front of the television, where I just wanted to watch the news on.
I get a shower, shave, brush my teeth and go to work. It is a rather calm job.

After being done with work, I return home again. Finally!
I take the dogs out for a walk, tidy the kitchen and cook dinner.
At dinner, not many words are spoken, and around 6 p.m. we watch the news.
After dinner, I grab a cup of coffee and go on my computer for a while.

2 hours after I come home from work, I have to work again.
I drive to work and have fun with my colleagues during work.
This job is not what pays the most, but it sure is fun and keeps me going.
After work (which is midnight by then), I go home and grab a beer or a nice Chardonnay to wind down.
I brush my teeth and get to bed. I need my rest for tomorrow, while I only get 5-6 hours of sleep, if not less...
