Nobody to make sure I get up when I'm dead tired.

I have to drag my tired ass out of bed and make my own breakfast and I suppose I'm missing my first class since it started five minutes ago. At least my car's probably thawed by now.

Three more weeks of school. I can do this. I think.

1. Get a dog. I can never sleep past 5:30AM because I have 3 dogs that
make sure I get up. Unfortunately, they do not understand time changes and so there are a couple of weeks we fight about whether it's 5:30 or 4:30AM!!

2. I'm not home enough.
It really wouldn't be fair to the fuzzy alarmclocks, or I'd see about adopting one.

3. Buy a Big Ben alarm clock, put it on the other side of the room.


The ring is loud, and you have to get up to shut it off. Does the trick! :hi:

5. You are assuming, of course...
that the person in bed with you would get up when the alarm goes off and would make you breakfast :)

6. I'm sorry.
:(
Living alone sucks. Being a single parent has to be even worse, becuase you have to be the responsible adult for both of you.
:hug:

I hope the class you're missing isn't essential.
