'Potential'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Glad to hear the move went well. Very happy to see your pixels. Hope your sisters toe heals quickly.
Though living with my mother might be a different story which I'll have to sort out eventually, but that's for another time.Might I suggest you *FORGET* your M16 abilities. She is your mother after all. As frustrating as she is right now, you do love her.
Morning. I got a bit of sleep. Not quite enough, but some. And now I've got to get dressed for physical therapy, and then go do some work.
Timelies, all.
Zen! Hiya! Where you been, girly?
Yay for Shir getting moved with minimal issues.
I suppose it's fitting that, when I tried to post my facebook status as "is having One of Those Mornings," it wouldn't post? On either browser?
So far I've overslept (despite multiple alarms and a decent bedtime), took forever to find an outfit (which is now itching me), was 45 min late to work, had to reschedule a meeting I wasn't ready for due to being late, and spilled coffee on myself.
Really, Friday? What did I ever do to you?
I know lots of Buffistas have trouble with insomnia - is there anyone who has/had massive issues getting up on time and found ways to deal with it? Besides multiple alarms, because I can apparently hit snooze/turn them off in my sleep like a CHAMP. The thing that's worked best for me is to get a wakeup call from a real human being, but I despise asking that of anyone.
And now that I've gotten that out of my system, I need to email my therapist and actually do some work.
Well, I have to say that today has begun in a great deal better fashion than yesterday. Wasn't shocked awake, I was able to have coffee in peace, and I get to go peruse the brand new Fresh Market for goodies to make for appetizers to take to dinner tonight. Even the weather is cooperating for once- it's in the mid-sixties, sunny, cloudless sky, and I'm going to ride with the top down.

I call mine "the cats".
Yay, Barb! I'm glad your day is going well. What kind of appetizers are you making?

My coping mechanism consists mainly of arriving late at work. Not sure I can recommend it as a long-term solution...

Yeah, mine aren't as obnoxious as they would need to be to keep me awake. Although Bella made a valiant effort this morning by leaping and grabbing on to the curtain near the top. Thank heavens she's wee or the whole thing might have come down. But I just detached her from the curtain, hopped back into bed, and zzzz... Going back to sleep is kind of my superpower. Too bad it's also a super pain in my ass.

Yeah, that's been mine, too. I've already had one formal writeup, which has thankfully expired.

Yes. I use multiple alarms, too, but they have to be far enough away that I have to get out of bed to turn them off. I have turned off the alarm next to my bed in my sleep enough that I need to physically get up and out of bed to turn off the 2nd alarm.
I have an alarm next to my bed that goes off first. I can hit snooze a couple of times before alarm 2 goes off. Alarm 2 is obnoxiously loud and in my bathroom (which is right outside my bedroom...if it were farther away, I might sleep through it).
Usually alarm 1 wakes me up enough that I hear alarm 2 with no problems. Alarm 2 is set for when I really really really need to be up or I will be oh so late.
Fortunately for my cat, he doesn't wake me up. I think he knows it would be ugly if he tried.
