    I hate waking up. But, we've been trying to get into a better sleeping pattern so I've been getting up at earlier and earlier hours recently, which just makes me sad and tired.

    My alarm is the song SO MANY SMURFING WONDERS, so that gets me up immediately and out the door.

    During the summer I'm pretty good at waking up without needing the snooze button, during the winter though, I'll sleep an extra 9 minutes (that's how long my snooze lasts for. I know it's a weird number but I don't know how to change it, argh!) Then again, maybe I haven't been needing the snooze since my second alarm is always so happy and cuddly when I wake up or cause chaos. :leeza:

    Waking up is absolutely awful and it takes me forever to get out of bed.

    Not a weird number. Most snooze buttons are nine minutes by default. Nobody knows why.

    I'm a snooze abuser.
    I usually switch my alarm off when it rings out, but then close my eyes for '5 more minutes'

    It always ends up being about 30!

    The snooze button is both a blessing and a curse.

    The best part of waking up
    Is knowing you'll be there
    The splash of rays in from the sun
    Glowing in your hair
    Being lost in your embrace
    As I stir toward the world
    I turn around, see you're awake
    Your eyes shining like pearls
    and calling

    Stay with me
    Just ten more minutes
    Lay with me

    Hold onto me
    And kiss me softly
    Hold onto me
    Hold onto me
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    I have a problem where I will wake up 30-60 minutes before I have to get up and, because of this knowledge, am incapable of going back to sleep. It's horrible. Effective, but horrible.

    I hate waking up, but I do stay awake when the alarm goes off. Then I just lay there being angry for about five minutes. Then I rush to get ready because when I set an alarm I set it so I get the absolute most amount of sleep possible.

    I'm awful at waking up in the morning. I manage to force myself out of my comfy, warm bed, brush my teeth and get myself sorted for the day, but even after an hour of getting up I'm still like a moody, walking zombie.

    I woke up at half 4 on Monday morning. Didn't have to be up for another hour and a half at least. Couldn't go back to sleep. Ugh. Having to do something is a great way to make you wake up of a morning though.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    I have had this issue before and am seconding its horribleness.

    Sometimes I get it, I find that my body then suddenly wants to go to sleep minutes before my alarm.
