Ahhh…It’s the Weekend.

It's the weekend and ask me if I'm ready for it. Go ahead, just ask me.
Hello?
Anyway…the answer is an unqualified YES…absolutely! No specific reason for it at all–just that I'm home, tomorrow is Saturday and that bloody rooster ain't gonna be a-crowin' in the morning…literally. Well, sort of literally.
You see, it's the only alarm that I can hear at all when my hearing aids are resting peacefully on top of my bureau instead of residing within my ears and one does not sleep with one's hearing aids still stuck in their head. Makes for a lot of squealing which only my wife can hear and you should never disturb your wife's slumber unless, say, the house is burning down around you and even then the bed clothes bloody well better be smoldering or else. Besides that, it can be awfully uncomfortable especially if one of the cats decides they're cold and comes to sleep on your head, jamming one of the above mentioned hearing devices into your ear canal so far that you have to remove it with a pair of pliers.
Oh, and in case I've never mentioned it before–I'm deaf (what?). Lost it in the service (Cold War Submariner). Not hearing impaired mind you…deaf! Plain and simple. Don't try to sugar coat it 'cause it ain't sweet no matter how much "politically correct" horse manure you spread on it and I need that rooster in the bedroom to wake me up in the morning.
Note: My wonderful wife bought that alarm clock.
But like I said; tomorrow is Saturday so I can "shoot the rooster" so to speak and I won't have to peel my very understanding lady off the ceiling when the fowl thing goes off. So what am I going to do during my weekly two days off. Well I won't be reviewing the online employee's manual for my workplace I can tell you that.
To be truthful about it, I have no clue what I'm going to be doing. What's that? You didn't ask in the first place?
Oh. Well that's okay then. You didn't have to. 
Just a nonsense post 'cause I felt like it.
