Preparing to Hibernate

What sWindles says when it starts up after hibernating.

sWindles meant to tell you that it's preparing to hibernate before it hibernates because it thinks that you're such a complete idiot that you don't know that you just told it to hibernate. However, since sWindles is the idiot that it thought you were, it tells you when it wakes up instead.
