What? What'd I miss?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
not a morning person. When DH isn't home I am up 'til about 2 am and rise around 8. Caffine and food are gooood. people talking at me - ok. expecting an answer - not going to be polite. even when I try to be polite - it still sounds like the wrath of a tiny god. If I have to do something out of my routine- I have to plan it all the night before - otherwise I forget things.
DH isn't a morning person - but he is a " feet hit the floor , so I must be awake person" It took him years to understand that calling me awake - because I was out of bed , walking, and even talking were basicly fighting words. It took him awhile to relieze that it wasn't just a semantics arguement - it was an actual state of being we wwere talking about.
I had a conversation with the ass't director of the library I work at. She feel that there have been morning and night people back to our monkey days. Somebody had to watch for the cheetahs.

Huh. That makes a lot of sense, now that I think about it. Hmm.
I'm definitely a morning person, but I'm slowly starting to shift to being more of a night person and not being quite so perky and ready-to-roll in the morning.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
My standard routine: Lie in bed until I have enough energy to get up (varies from 5 to 20 minutes).
That I can't do. I can get up when the alarm goes off, reluctantly. But really what I do is have one alarm set for one time, the second (my clock has two) for about twenty minutes later, so that I can wake up but still have an alarm to wake me up the second time. When I'm really overtired, I'll tell myself I can just lie there for a few minutes and then get up, but it's completely false. If I lie there, I'm back asleep, and I better hope to god the dog gets me up before I sleep the day away. Which she does, more often than not, but not reliably on work days.

Trust my rage
Alias: I refuse to accept that SpyDaddy might get sick! I sure wish I knew what was going on regarding the rest of the plot. It's hard to tell who's doing what these days.

Not a morning person at all, although it has improved a lot since I gave up the caffeine and sleep better. I refuse to use an alarm. The few times I have done so I wake up more often during the night to look at the clock to see if it is about to rudely awaken me. I lie in bed awake for a long time preparing myself for functioning, then I need quite a bit of alone time before I can wake the kids and start with the big morning activity. Ugh. My natural clock would prefer to stay up late and sleep in.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I have never understood the whole snooze alarm thing, because once I'm awake, it takes me at least 20 minutes to get back to sleep--if then. better set the alarm for the latest possible time and sleep straight through. Jealous of all you drowsy, relaxed, fall back to sleep types.
