    My internal alarm is powered by anxiety and especially if I have something big going on the next day I typically wake up multiple times in the hour leading up to the alarm going off. On a normal day it’s ten minutes before

    The decision to end pretend death every morning and face the day is partially mitigated by the “9 minutes of extra sleep button” that I sometimes hit once or twice, as a treat.

Wanted special treatment from her employers and everything. I bet mornings are a real doozy for her

    Since I stopped having to commute to the office and my son is older and sleeps to 7, I have been getting 9.5 hours of sleep most nights. I can stay up later than 930 or wake up before 7 but on a lot of weekdays, I don't have a reason to.

    I very much enjoy sleeping and dreaming, and I'm also much more productive in the morning. My alarm is set for 7 every day and I usually wake up a few minutes before, but still roll around in bed for a few minutes.

    Those tent sleeps after a long day of hiking are incredible, especially if it's a nice cool/cold night. I feel like a bear could eat my face off and it'd still take me a minute to wake up

    When my brother came home from Army basic, I thought I’d be the jokester of the family and but a Bluetooth speaker in his room and play Reveille at 5AM after he had a fun night out. The concern and confusion on his face as he sat up in bed was worth me waking up that early.

    At the airport heading to Vegas for the weekend. Grabbing a beer at the bar and this guy is with 2 other women and he closes out as they have the receipts in the cup. He gets the bill and it’s more cause it wasn’t updated and they had 2 rounds. Complains and is an asshole about it. They leave I ask the bartender and shocker he didn’t tip on 6 drinks. Fuck that guy so since I’m not an asshole I tipped em out.

    I got a kick out of this in Hawaii. I’d wake up around 4:30 the first couple days and when I’d finally go searching for coffee downstairs about 5:30 there were already people out claiming spots by the pool or out walking.

    It’ll never be under $30k again. You’ll be lucky if you can buy under $80k once 2025 hits.

    Last 4 years are like a 50% IRR…shits and giggles is a mistake.
