My cat incessantly meowing to be let out.
I climb back in bed just as he starts meowing to be let back in.

Being a kid on Christmas morning.

Blackout / power outage: I've been wondering why my kids (4yo, 6yo) are messing around in the kitchen, and operate (what seems like) the microwave's door every other second and why they use the microwave although they're not allowed to, any why the f*** microwave beeps endlessly although it's muted at 4 o'clock in the night in pure darkness... Once I got up I realized there is an power outage, and our roomba started roaming around looking for his homestation to charge (no power/wifi = no recognized homestation / not actually a roomba --> other brand). It bumped against everything in the kitchen over and over again (what sounded like the microwaves door in semi-sleep) and both my computers UPSs were singing me the song of their people. Happens every time on power outage, so I have to wander around the house, switching the UPSs and Roomba(s) actually off to get some silence in the house.
What else gets me up: -SmartPhone turning on Display for a few seconds to full brightness indicating it's fully charged (f*** that) -Kids making "unusual" noises (we've had a medical emergency earlir in life at night, so I'm always instantly fully awake if some even caughs the wrong way), so I check them up -honorary post / voluntary firefighter dispatch

Noise, people talking, tv, dog snoring. Oddly enough, I go to sleep to classical music (auto shut off in 30 minutes).

Fire.

What did? A tree outside my window exploding and seeing it falling through the skylight above my head. I made it from the bedroom to the kitchen in basically one motion.

I'm guessing lightning here?

Pain. Waking up to painkillers wearing off is not a lot of fun.
