jackIt's always disconcerting when a bike tyre punctures "bang" when you're riding it. But it's disconcerting in an entirely different way when it does so when you're asleep[1]
Me: zzzzzzzzz[2]
Something: BANG!
Me: Wuh? Fztl? WTF!
Me: I don't know. Was it [in rough order]:
* a gunshot [fairly unlikely]
* a car backfiring [not very likely, but what "gunshot" made me think of]
* someone teleporting in [I read scifi]
* someone teleporting out [I read scifi but not enough physics. Also this way is marginally less worrisome but more frustrating. In fact, the previous was closer.]
* something eventually falling over, after several hours of gradual decline
* an explosive water pressure failure type failure event
* something obvious that I haven't thought of [maybe this should be top of the list]
* a dream?
* something interesting to blog about?
Bike tyre: is flat
Me: Hm, it wasn't like that before.
Me: I have a theory.
And the day *before* the gear cable snapped. *shrug* It's going to the bike man for the gear cable and having its tube replaced and I hope they're unrelated.
[1] And not riding it.
[2] Or maybe not, I don't know. The key point being I was asnooze. I was probably dreaming about mechacarrots or theology or something, I don't remember.

A MURDERER breaking your window as he enters, knife poised, preparing for multiple stabbings. [I read the local papers]

Eek. Maybe it's... um, the weather? Chain expands in spring, snaps?
