The World Turned Upside Down Part 2

On Saturday morning Stu came home after staying with a group of friends and complained that my phone call at 4:19 AM woke his friends up. Apparently I needed to be more considerate. I told this to Pat and she laughed. Had we ever been woken up by the Rock Band crew playing through the night? Of course. But the Rock Band Crew never called us. They just crooned classic Aerosmith through the sub-woofer under our bed.

This probably could have been avoided if Stu had turned off the lights in the house. But at 3:30 I was woken by a playful kick to my shins (a reminder that I should stop snoring). Maybe This precipitated nature's call and the discovery in short order that the light's were on and Stu was not at home. When informed of a missing young man Pat's painful stare illuminated the darkness until I did what the kid's do and texted Stu.

Stu did not respond to the text and a half hour later I could not take the prodding silence and called Stu. He missed the call but quickly called back with some indignation and hushed tones to explain that a group was crashing at Rachel's house.

Rachel is the lead singer of last summer's Rock Band. I doubt Stu's ring tone was as pleasant as her voice.
