Poll question: How many times do you hit the snooze on your alarm in the morning?
During the work week.

1. Other...
...I usually never hit the snooze alarm. Usually get up right away, switch the alarm off and get to it. But I most certainly am never ready to face the day. Not until around 2pm anyway. ;)

2. I Hit Mine Twice
I'm usually in the middle of a dream when the alarm goes off the first time. More often than not, I resume dreaming during the 9-minute snoozes.

3. What's a snooze alarm?
I am retired. I get up when I get damn good and ready and do what I please. I threw away my watch and clock. What do I need them for.

4. Snooze alarms are for wimps.
Hell, ALARM CLOCKS are for wimps. Get up everyday at five, rain or shine, whether you want or not, like the rest of the working world. Wimp. :)

5. Other - I have a 2-year-old alarm clock
If I smack her in the head, CPS will come after me!

6. I have evolved beyond the need for a snooze button
Mrs. McLargehuge is the first line of offence in waking me up. Ian McLargehuge is the failsafe. If I don't get up but the time Ian wants me, I'll be late for work.

7. I never have. I fall back asleep even with the music still on.
And if I don't fall back asleep, I'm still so tired that I lay there for a long time and get to work late. And the reason I'm so tired is usually because I've spent too many hours on DU the night before and gone to bed much later than I should have. But fortunately, my boss doesn't really care what time I get in, as long as we're not expecting anyone to be coming in, which doesn't happen very often.
