Note to self: If you immediatley turn off your alarm—not snooze—then the likelihood of you getting up on time is very slim.

See, this is why I rely on the clock radio & keep it more than arm's length away ...!

When I use the clock radio thing, the talking-people just get incorporated into my dreams weirdly....

[saavedra77.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I guess that wouldn't work so well, then.

For me, the talk sort of lubricates my waking brain. Next thing you know, I'm thinking like a conscious person!

What really works for me is light. I'm thinking of getting one of those gradually adjusting lamp things. Sun lamps?

[saavedra77.livejournal.com]

That's a good idea!

Wouldn't work for me, though; I can sleep in the noonday sun, if I'm tired enough ...

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

If I'm tired enough I probably can, too. But on normal days, light, even dim light coming through the blinds, will do it.

My dad has one of those and he loves it, wakes him right up without any harsh blaring or cranky morning starts. He did have to play with it a bit to figure out when he needed to set it so that he brain got the wake-up signal.

Nifty little thing, that lamp. ^_^

Judy got one of those too, because she really is hit hard by the winter darkness.

I'm going to have to investigate getting one myself. Because it really does make me a lot more awake in the morning!
