Time To Get Up

[Rokkaholik]

It's time to get up... Are you the type who will get up and get going to the alarm, get up before the alarm or do you pull the covers over your head, swear at the alarm and hit the snooze button?

Personally... I used to be the "another 5 minutes" person... But after a few of those that managed to stretch into 10, 20, and 60 minutes and me almost being late for work, I quit doing it. I purposely set my alarm clock across the room on my TV, so I actually have to get up and turn it off. I also purposely went and bought an alarm clock with the most annoying alarm I could find so I couldn't just roll over and ignore the little beeps that many have. It also is good because I prefer not to have to hear it, so if it's going to go off in a few minutes, I'll just get up and get going then so I don't have to hear it go off...

 

My wife... Another story. We argue daily about her getting up. She relies on our daughter and the baby monitor to get her up. Ashlynn is pretty good about getting up most mornings about 7am, but there are plenty of times when she played hard the day before and she'll sleep in until 8am, and by that time, it makes my wife run late. She's the type that flies by the seat of her pants and walks into work with 1 minute to spare... Completely the opposite of myself, who likes to get there with at least 15-20 minutes to spare so I can get my head in the game before starting.

If I have to be up, then I'll usually wake up before the alarm, but then still make use of the snooze function and lay in bed for a bit.

I don't use an alarm, I usually wake up about the same time every day.

I'm way too random to really pick just one. Sometimes I hit snooze for as long as possible without being late. Sometimes i'm up hours before my alarm goes off.

yeah, I usually set my alarm earlier then I really gotta wake up by, so I can roll around in bed for a bit...

I'll often naturally wake up before my alarm goes off, but that in no way means I'm getting out of the comfort of my bed....snooze button ftw.

 

On the weekends though...what alarm? . As long as I don't have to be somewhere, I'll just sleep in until noonish.

Sometimes when I'm like half asleep I forget where the snooze button is, so I just jerk the cord out of the wall so it won't bother me again lol. I don't even know why I have an alarm cause I never go by it.

I saw an article a while back about an alram clock. Once you hit the snooze button, it had wheels and would roll off and find a place to hide, then go off again, this time LOUD. I thought that was hilarious
