It's raining heavily, chilly, and you just pulled the covers up over your back, which was cold from being exposed.

That was this morning. I texted everyone that I'd be late and went back to sleep. I failed the escape room, but it was worth it.

But the blankets are warm. That's part of it.

Books and hot tea on the bedside table

Lemmings awaiting you from the other side of an LCD screen

You flipped the pillow to the fresh side just before pulling the covers over you.

Bonus round - you have a heated mattress pad, set to 3 (or whatever is perfect for you, I’m a 2-3 with my pad), and enough pillows around you to give you that snuggly feeling (for me it’s 3, but there are an additional 3 supporting pillows to allow the 3 comfy pillows to do their job optimally)

And your cats/dogs are all cuddled against you. Because warm.

Good luck.

That's not an escape room, that's the world's nicest supermax prison.

Level 2: You hit the alarm off, not the snooze.

Think to self, it has probably been 5 minutes already, I should get up. Look at watch, hmmmmmm that can't be right, how did 45 minutes just disappear?

[-] flashgnash@lemm.ee 14 points 2 months ago

I will escape with exactly one minute to spare every time

"Ah, I don't have to get up as early as usually, so I have more time to get ready in the morning."

Proceeds to waste time regardless and almost misses the train

Lo, I have been bested.

"Sorry I'm late. I woke up in an escape room this morning."

[-] madjo@feddit.nl 2 points 2 months ago

Someone had padlocked my underwear drawer... Again.

[-] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Five more minutes?

[-] Emptiness@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Escape room? I just call it November.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

I see that you've met my fiancee.

That's why I'm glad I work in homeoffice and have a job phone
