Finally get a few Zzzzzzz's and guess what happens?

Well I finally was able to catch a few hours sleep and I get an incredible pain that instantly wakes me up... causing me to writhe, grunt (because words can not possibly be formed), pant, look around in bewilderment, and grab my calf and my toes..... yes, a calf spasm.  The pain only gets worse and my leg is involuntarily moving and contorting to accommodate the ever growing muscle.
This pain goes on for what seems like an hour.... probably only about 15 seconds. I am stunned and still in pain but the spasm has stopped. I get out of bed and stretch out the leg.... ouch... and then continue to wake up.
My advice is to not use that sort of alarm clock:)
