Hammer Hands

I am typically the first one up in the mornings and sometimes I am awoken by my alarm right next to my bed. The other night Maddie wasn't feeling great, so she ended up sleeping in the bed with Renee and I. Somehow, over the course of the night, Maddie rolled over and was laying on both my arms. When the alarm went off that next morning at around 5:30am, I moved my arms out from underneath her only to find that I had no feeling in both my hands and I basically couldn't move any of my fingers. So I attempted to turn off the alarm, by at first trying to gently turn off the alarm, then after about 10 seconds of the thing blaring, I started to just pound at it as if I had a hammer in my hands. After about 30 seconds I finally hit the alarm in the right place and it went off, but it was too late, both Renee and Maddie were awoken by 30 seconds of the alarm blaring in the room. Oh well, an early morning for us all.
