Tap. Tap. Tap.

It was driving me nuts.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Keeping me awake.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

That damn tree branch scraping at our bedroom window.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

I shifted to my side slowly, trying to avoid waking my wife.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

I sighed and shifted again, trying to get back to sleep.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

"We really need to trim that tree," I muttered.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

"The gardener did it last week," she mumbled sleepily to me.

Tap. Tap. Tap.
