Before I start, I should tell you all that Josh purchased us both I phones last week. I still have no idea how to work it but to make and accept phone calls but I consider myself a work in progress....maybe by next week I will understand how to set my alarm clock.
Last night Josh and I were in a really sleepy mood. We went out to this restaurant that is known for its steak and afterwards we both walked into the apartment and decided to just lay down for a little bit. We ended up falling asleep at 7:30 PM....sad but we woke up around 10 to watch the rest of a movie Josh had started while I was at work...James Bond. Yes, super exciting for me but I couldn't sleep so I had no other option. Found out while we were watching the movie, he purchased it for $1 in Iraq. I asked him why he just didn't do Christmas shopping there.
So we went back to sleep after the movie and around 11:30 or so Josh got up to go to the bathroom. While he was in the bathroom, a car alarm started going off. We had our windows open (we are on the 3rd floor) so it was enough to wake me up. I went to the window to see that it was our car alarming. I ran into Josh and said it was our car and he went to find the keys to turn it off. I had forgotten that our car even had an alarm and Josh didn't know that either. So Josh was the super brave man, took a flashlight and went out to examine the car. We figured if anyone was trying to get into the car they must have seen Josh past by the window...and by the time we shut the alarm off from the 3rd story window, we figured the person could be long gone. The only thing that would be of much value to the person/persons who were trying to get in the car would be the GPS but discussed how it is odd that anyone would be breaking into a car on base...because of the high level of security on base.
So Josh went, checked the car and found nothing. We went back to bed and at 2 am, the alarm went off again. We shut it off from the window and just went back to sleep... I was confused. We woke up around 5 this morning and Josh said he couldn't find his phone. He told me to call it, so I did and again the car alarm went off. Josh looked at me and said "I bet my phone is activating the alarm." We both walked down to the car and Josh said to call it one more time to verify it was his phone. Sure enough I called it and the car alarm sounded again.
Maybe laugh out loud, but if you don't want to I don't blame you....so I didn't sleep all that well trying to figure out who would want to break into our car.....talked about the serial killer possibilities and after all that it was just Josh's stupid phone....it's only stupid because now I am pretty positive that every neighbor....and that is probably 95% of my friends, hate us now.
Well I thought I would share that story with you all. Hope you guys are having a good day when you get this.
Josh and I are off to London as you all know this weekend, so we will be in touch soon.
Love,
Gretchen
