Last night, while the wind was blowing and the clouds were snowing, we were sound asleep, oblivious to it all. Suddenly I was awakened by the telephone. 12:30 a.m. So who could that be?
Turns out it was the security company at Don's firm. An interior door had caused the alarm to go off. Although Don suspected it was the cleaning crew, he decided he had better go down to the office to check. Nevermind that it was blizzarding outside.
Because it was a little dicey outside, I decided to stay up and wait for him to get home. There aren't many options on tv at that time (the health show on KWCH is brutal), but station 10.2 was a lifesaver. Mission Impossible. The old tv show with Peter Graves. It must have been a very early rendition because we did not recognize the woman, and the tricks were not very tricky. Worse yet was the acting. I hadn't realized how bad it was.
When Don got home, he got involved in the show also. I went back to bed, but he stayed up to watch the whole thing. When the real alarm went off this morning, one of the first things I thought of was the Mission Impossible theme. Catchy song, even if the show wasn't as good as I had remembered.
