Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The radio part of my clock radio stopped working about five or seven years ago. So I just get the annoying electronic buzzing instead.

Huh. Morning news for an alarm might be nice. So instead I go online and check the weather. For some reason I like to do that before I get into the shower - apparently so I can think about what to wear while I'm showering.....

Is it just me, or is this headline fairly awesome?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I use the beep alarm on my watch and this really annoying pedometer alarm that talks! and cock a doodle doos! the sad thing is when I keep trying to turn my watch off when it is the pedometer. Also, I can now ignore the pedometer to sleep more.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I don't like the feeling of being woken up, so I have trained myself to get up on the frst alarm. Only have to go through the alarm ordeal once. Also, once the alarm rings, my husband will gently and lovingly shove me right out of bed, so there's that.

I am a total morning person and often wake up well before my alarm (at 5:00 AM). Just not this week.

Stupid daylight savings.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Mr. Jane cannot stand my snooze alarm habit. Of course, I find his snoring unbearable. It's amazing the two of us aren't zombified by now.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I don't think I read about it here, but there is an alarm clock that donates money to an organization you oppose if you hit the snooze alarm too many times. A friend has it to donate to the Republican party.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

In college my roommate Chip and I would set the snooze alarm an hour before we had to get up, and we'd alternate hopping out of bed to hit the snooze button. It couldn't be within arm's length or we'd just turn off the alarm entirely and go back to sleep. But we both loved to be in the drifty dreamy state of falling back asleep.

I was on the top bunk so he got the first two snooze alarms and then we alternated. For an hour.
