So apparently I've slept way too hard my entire life. I in fact wear my old glasses when I sleep, just so that if I have to respond to something, they're already on. My only thing is, I kind of doubt I'm going to wake up :banghead:.
My roommate works at a bar and generally comes home around 2-3am, and generally drunk. Most of the time I don't hear him come in even though our screen door sounds like a hammer when it closes. Whenever he is already here when I go to bed, or I know he is not coming home I lock the chain on the door. Hoping it'll make a lot more noise while someone is trying to fumble with it, but most of the time I can't seeing as I work days and go to bed a lot earlier than my roommate gets home.
Obviously the easiest response to this would be an alarm system, but I'm only 21, not going to be living here permanently, and it's a cruddy old apartment. Doesn't really seem worth the time or cost, not to mention, I don't foresee my roommate's ability to function it that well when he comes home so late, a lot of times inebriated from his job.
Any off the charts solutions, or should I just "try" to be more alert?
