Brandon: March 2008 Archives

My morning ritual works like this: my alarm wakes me up at 7:00, I groan, hate life, jump out of bed, hit the snooze, jump back into bed, and immediately hit REM sleep again. I do this all without actually crossing the intervening distance between my bed and the alarm clock across the room (strategically placed to get me out of bed). Either it's quantum physics, or I am simply too sleepy to ever remember getting up. I hope it's the former: I think I'm ready for a superpower. Any how; wash, rinse, and repeat until 8:00. Sometimes until 8:30, when work starts.

For the last two weeks, I've tried a daring experiment: I've been waking up at 5:30 every morning (GASP!).
