Why am I awake, you ask?

When I arrived at the hotel tonight, I could barely make it through the front door because it is ... Prom Night. Beautiful girls and handsome boys all dressed up and arriving by incredibly large double and triple stretch limos - even a stretch Escalade.

Checked in, went out to dinner, came back and went to bed.
About an hour ago, the fire alarm went off.

I am on the 9th floor.

I don't exactly wear a lot of clothing when I sleep.

Anyway, I threw a shirt and jeans on and proceeded down the stairs. All nine flights of them. I ended up outside of the hotel, and had to walk all the way around (over a block) barefoot.

No fire engine. No hotel employees out there to soothe us - the ninth floor goes back into the lobby where we are assured that it is just a false alarm.

Got back up to the ninth floor. The alarm goes off again.

This time, I called the front desk. No worries, it's another false alarm. They are going to reset the alarm.

That was 30 minutes ago. The alarm is still going. I am awake. And not happy.

Gee, Prom and Fire Alarm. Who do you think pulled the alarm?
