I'd say you did all right.
I'd recommend picking up a pair of flip-flops. I know, I know, flip-flops are not "tacticool," but they are a darn sight faster to put on than any other shoe I've come across.
Maybe buy a few pair of shorts to sleep in. I don't mean some thing like boxers, I'm talking about actual shorts, with pockets. It sounded like you had your hands full between the flashlight and the revolver, so having pockets where you could drop in a reload might be good. In addition to the reload, you could also throw a knife in there. Not saying that you should go and get yourself in a knife fight with the next coyote that comes around, just that the next time you wake up in the middle of the night, it might be nice to have.
As most others have said, I think you did all right, if not pretty good.
