| | alarm clock ?
following up on a couple of post froms yesterday in the "weird habits" thread | Quote: | |  | | | this is not weird at all but ........ my alarm clock ( altho digital ) has to be set as if at a number position on a dial
i..e. 6:35 6:40 6:45 never 6.37 , 6:42 .. that is just WRONG:  | | | | | | Quote: | |  | | | ..not even Jesus and the Mexicans are awake that early!!  | | | | |
I am wondering what time the cock crows ( or perhaps the digital alarm clock buzz's ) in your house ? |

I really grew to hate that alarm clock.

My alarm is set for 6:45. My inbuilt alarm clock awakens me around 6:00 but I just lie in bed until 6:45 or until I hear my son wake up.

**OFF TOPIC**
has a mod ever moved a thread OUT of off topic ?
I just noticed the thread I quoted "Weird Habits" was started and still lived in Daily Life ... I'm just so used to having my threads moved to off topic ( boo -hoo-hooo ) that I started it here. |

I have a very sophisticated alarm clock. Self-setting, programmed to go off exactly 15 minutes before sunrise. No matter what the season, the clock self-adjusts to the sun.
And then he whines and wibbles and bumbles and barks until I drag my sleepy carcass out of bed to give him a biscuit.
The snooze function shows no mercy either.

I ignored him.
he then waited another minute.. sat back on his haunches and howled
"Ok ok.. don't make a scene, I'm awake!!!!!!!" he had won another round.

If wife is working, 6.00, otherwise 6.30 or 6.45 depending on which train I want to get. However this is often superceded by the in-house feline alarm clock, which can go off any time between 5.30 and 6.30 and cannot be switched off.

I like to get up around 7:45 but I'm still so zleeepy by that time that I stay in bed till 8:15-8:30. In the last 2 weeks I've often managed 7:45 though. Guess that means I'm getting old...
