Don't you just love being jerked clean out of a nice, deep sleep by a booming crack of thunder at five in the morning? Furthermore, don't you just adore the way your heart goes THUMPTHUMPTHUMP!!! during said awakening? I also quite enjoy the sitting straight up in bed part, and the sharp inhale of breath, too.
It's all just so much fun, let me tell you. It's like waking up in the middle of a big loop-de-loop on a rollercoaster. Wouldn't you agree?

That can be a little annoying - if for no other reason than the only thing that frightens me, ever, is the possibility that you're hurt. When you wake up like someone's plunged a knife into your breast, I worry.
Happy anniversary, My Bride.
