"Bastard Thing", usually said as I try to reach it, bleary-eyed, from the bed. Invariably resulting in said Bastard Thing being knocked to the floor and then getting even further out of reach, all the while ringing and annoying me even more.

No alarms are set on weekends if we can help it. Definitely not on a Sat anyway. And no alarms are set on holidays either. It's a firm rule.
