Autumn Trials

Click! Beep!!!
The alarm sounded its single off key tone. I rolled onto my side and wildly waved my arm out from under my soft warm blankets made of silk and fleece. My palm slammed down on the button, ending its horrid song, yet knowing in five minutes it was doomed to go off again. I rolled onto my back again and stared at the array of colors dancing under my eyelid. My visions of the beach had faded when I regained consciousness. I lay there, thinking of the day that had past and imagining what would happen today. I tried opening my eyes, but my eyelids were heavy, and they closed again. I opened them again and managed to keep them open, and rolled my head along the pillow.
The apartment was small but it was pretty nice. The window by my bed was large. A proud maple stood just outside, arms stretched, leaves painted a golden brown. The three rooms had enough space for a single person to work in, I only wish I had a bit more storage space. The counters were a deep mahogany, with cupboards that floated above them. It held all the bare necessities, along with a few things I had gotten for myself, and a few gifts from friends.
After watching the old tree blow in the crisp autumn wind for a while, I decided I  might as well get up. I flipped my body over, letting my feet dangle off the side of the bed, before pressing my weight down and stumbling through the hallway. I made it about three steps before my cellphone began to ring. I had heard its catchy jingle many times, and I thought of how sick I was of it. Plopping myself on the floor, I rummaged through a heap of clothes I had already worn until I found the buzzing ringing phone. The caller ID was still busted, so I picked up the phone not knowing who had called.
"Hello?" I mumbled, barely loud enough for the puny speaker to pick up.
"There you are!" The device hummed back. "I've been trying to get you all day! I can't believe your still asleep! Its a party! P A R T Y!!! That means move your butt and get ready for fun!!!"
I laughed at the speed in which she spoke. There may have been a party, but she still talked in her crazy old fashion, to fast and to jumbled for a native speaker to translate in time.
"Hey calm down." I spoke lazily and slow, the complete opposite of her speech. "I have time."
"No you don't! Not with all the stuff I've got planned! We have to go! Now!!! Meet me at the usual in one hour!!!"
She hung up quickly before I could say 'I'll be there', or any such thing. She just wanted to drag the party out as long as she could, including preparing for it seven hours in advance.
I hoped today was gonna be quick and easy, but she had plans otherwise...
