I've been noticing an alarming trend lately. My bedroom clock radio isn't doing its job. The radio sits right by my head and is usually turned up all the way. It's tuned to the 'goofy oldies' station right now, but has been set to other things at different times. This week and this week only, if you were expecting me this morning, find out why I was late.
| Sunday February 14, 1999 | I set my alarm for 7:30 and woke up at 7:32. That's too early to be getting up on a weekend, though, so I reset it for 8:30 and went back to sleep. I didn't wake up agin until 9:29. The radio was only playing static, so that must be why it didn't wake me up. |
| Monday February 15, 1999 | I set my alarm for 7:30 but didn't wake up until about 8:15. That was troublesome because I didn't have much time to get to class. |
| Tuesday February 16, 1999 | I left my alarm set for 7:30, and I have no idea why, because there was no way I was going to get up that early. It actually woke me up right away though, but I fell back to sleep until 8:30 and then kept hitting the snooze button until 9:00. |
| Wednesday February 17, 1999 | I laid in bed for several minutes and had a half-asleep dream that had something or other to do with what ever was on the radio. I didn't actually get up until about 8 minutes after my alarm started going off. |
| Thursday February 18, 1999 | For some reason I left my alarm set for 7:30. I hit the snooze button once around 8:00 and didn't get up until 9:30. |
| Friday February 19, 1999 | I set my alarm for 8:30 and didn't wake up at all until 8:50. That still left me plenty of time to get ready for school, though, since I don't have class until 9:55 today. |
