“I used to hit the snooze three times. I stopped using the snooze when I had kids.”

“Depends on what day and when I got to sleep the night before. Mine is set for 10 minutes, so invariably I crawl out of the sack after the third time if it gets that far.”

“I agree with the study. The snooze button does screw me up in the mornings.”

“No snooze, no coffee for me. Up and at 'em. Time's a wastin'.”

“I don't think I've ever used the snooze button. Not when I seriously need to get up. If I need extra time waking up, I set the radio to come on like 15 minutes before the alarm time. My radio has a gentle wake up feature where it starts soft and steadily increases the volume. I usually set the radio to very loud the night before so it will at some point get loud enough to wake me. Usually I'm such a light sleeper though, that the little click the radio makes when it's coming on is enough to wake me.”

“I do it every morning. I wake up at work so it’s pretty much up and at ‘em but I set my alarm at least 15 minutes early so I can snooze and wake up slower. Because I only get 3-4 hours a night by the end of the week I’m draggin’ and sometimes end up snoozing the alarm for 45 minutes and then I’m racing to get done. Some nights I know it’s going to be a bad morning and set the alarm clock well out of my reach across the room so I can’t snooze too many times.”

“3-4 hours a night...that stinks, Nigal! What do you do, anyway? Tarpy usually is dragging by the end of the week too, b/c he has to wake up at 3am.

That snooze button thing reminds me...in college I had a roommate in my dorm room who was up on the top bunk...she would get me (still trying to sleep, btw) to hit the snooze button for her like 10 times every morning, b/c she couldn't reach the alarm clock!! LOL! I finally told her she only got one "snooze" from now on.”

“I had to do the same thing to my wife.”

“Lyra......3 AM????

WTF???

Does he milk cows???”

““3-4 hours a night...that stinks, Nigal! What do you do, anyway?"

I'm a caregiver for a couple disabled guys who share a house. Everyone thinks it's awesome that I get to sleep at work but between Sunday and friday I sleep no more than 2-4 at any stretch. 3-4 at night and a 2 hour nap in the afternoon.”

“Note to self: be extra-nice to Nigal at the end of the week... ;-) That's rough!!

He milks monkeys, MarkO! No, he works at a place that does ski-conditions reporting, so they have to be up and running by the time the resorts open.”

“Many years ago I was a breadman in D.C.........start at 4 or 5 AM.

The streets were quiet, anyway.”
