Now I'm sure many of you are reading this charming little story and thinking "Aw, poor Squidney, didn't get to enjoy her salty snack before bed." Boo hoo. After her disappointing attempt at popping corn, Squids returned to her bedroom on the third floor. I retired to my room at approximately 12:07, only to notice the smell of burning had wafted into my room. Being a generally easy going girl, I closed my eyes hoping my nose would become accustomed to the unpleasant smell. Forty minutes later and no less smoky (burnt popcorn just wont quit), I had an ingenious idea: air freshener!!! Of course, I could not turn on my light- I'm kind of a princess when it comes to my sleeping conditions and I didn't want to trick my brain. But I was able to find my Febreeze, all without leaving the comforts of my bed. Just a few spritz and I would be sound asleep, dreaming of lavender fields. But alas, I failed to consider the powerful effects of my oscillating fan. AIR FRESHENER IN THE EYES!!! BLINDING!!!! No choice but to cry it out.
On the plus side, I discovered my first line of defense should any creeper dare to intrude.
