    Close your eyes for a moment, and dream that you went to work. Wake up panicking that you might be late, and just make it into work. Wake up again and rush to work, just barely making it. Wake up a few more times. Then wake up for real and youre already an hour late, fuck it.

      if you’re already late, no point in rushing, might as well stop and get that McGriddle

    That’s why I have an awake confirmation. I have to do a thing to shut off the alarm, and 5 minutes later it asks if I’m awake. If I don’t confirm, the alarm goes off again.

    Of course, depending on what I have to do to shut it off, that loop can last hours.

      Guy next to us in the college dorms had 8 alarms clocks. He had to get out of bed and circle to the room to turn them all off.

      Roomate and I at 7:59AM: “It’s time.” <sigh> “I know.” BWAK! BWAK! BWAK! BWAK! BWAK! BWAK! BWAK! BWAK!

    I always turn on the light after shutting off the alarm, this way I won’t fall asleep again. I need to be reasonably well rested for this though, which I usually am. Also, don’t do this if your SO is sleeping next to you.
