alarm clock

What sound wakes you up?

When 5AM rolls around I:
1. music, I switch it off/ hit snooze then...
2. nature sounds, I switch it off/ hit snooze then...
3. the beeping alarm thing, then I get up.

No sounds it seems that there is a little switch in my ead that just flicks to on when I want to wake up. I always wake up five minutes before my alarm is due to go off no matter what time its set for. Pretty handy.
The alarm is a crashendo one on my phone but I rarely hear it as I turn it off before it goes off.

Wake up to a cd selection... switch it off and get out of bed and go take a shower

The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

I need to get a radio or CD alarm.

At the moment my mobile beeps at me, but the sound is so damn annoying I have to turn it off straight away and go back to sleep. With music I can sit and listen to it until I'm properly awake

Do you want to have an ideagasm?

I go with the annoying buzzer and keep tha alarm across the room from the bed so I have to get up to turn it off. If I didn't, I'd cut it off without waking.

I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried

Darn it!! I knew I was missing something!
I used to hang out with a guy that only used his phone or his watch to wake him up and I forgot those options.

I use a really annoying sound on my mobile. Then, 15 minutes later (i'm sleeping again after i turn off my phone) my beeping alarm clock goes off, which is across the room so i have to get my ass out of bed. Then start for a shower and coffee.

I hate mornings...

Those who do, can't explain. Those who don't, can't understand.

I use the most annoying ringtone on my cell phone as my alarm.

5am? If someone wakes me up at 5am, they'd better be wearing a fire dept hat.

I rarely set an alarm clock. If I set an alarm, I start waking up every couple of hours wondering if it's going to go off. I rarely oversleep, so no need for an alarm.

In fact, I consider myself lucky if I'm still asleep after 6 am!!

KC, of "KC and the Sunshine Band" disco fame, was on tv recently. He said that he has a nightly gig in Miami and is working all the time.

I would imagine that they go through bartenders about once a month.

"I just couldn't stand it. Night after night... "I wanna put on my boogie shoes... Dum Deee Dump..."

(Hopefully, everyone who read that will not be able to get it out of their head for the rest of the afternoon)

Talk about a ringtone that sucked.

This is me. Sometimes its great but it sucks to wake up before one has to. I do however use my alarm clock to go to sleep. I used to think I had insomnia , upon research I realized that it wasnt insomnia but just a lack of me laying down to sleep. So now I use the alarm clock for its cathedral bells to help lull me to sleep, or the beach sounds.

I typically wake 2-3 min before my alarm clock... but sometimes I let it go off. I have it set to a CD (generally Lorena McKennitt or bagpipes - currently the pipes.)

When I'm on call, I also set my pager to go off but again usually I'm awake and lying there as it goes off.... but I have it set on vibrate, so why shut it off?

[GravityJunky 0]

I usually rely on my "internal clock" to wake me on my own accord... However I have a dual purpose backup... CD of choice Plays Theme from "The Sopranos" -- "Woke up this morning, got yourself a gun"... it's a backup/wakeup call just incase... and a motivational tool, for the days I may not Want to get up, but who could resist getting up if... this is an optional way to turn around an otherwise crappy day ?

I either wake up to my cell phones alarm, or have a baby bouncing on me

Baby wake up calls. Very cute. I'm not a parent but I have this memory of being at my sister's house for christmas and waking up very early to three sets of whispers. "Is she awake yet?" "No. Momma said not to wake her or we'll get in trouble.." "But it's christmas!!!" Her three year old triplets were trying to be SOOO good but it's a little unnerving to open your eyes and see six little eyeballs very up close trying to see if you're awake yet or not.

I use 2 alarms. One is sometimes not effective and no way I'm going to hear my cell phone alarm.

At 0540, my alarm goes off (low pitch). I cycle an 8 minute snooze until 0628. At 0628, my other (high pitch) alarm starts going off. The harmonic between the 2 alarms usually gets me out of bed.

[countzero 7]

i use CDs- nothing like waking up to some fast rock or metal. it gets me charged up, in a good mood and ready for the day.

I use my sleeptracker watch. I use an alarm set to music just in case....

I use my cell phone for the alarm but also have a very annoying alarm clock which is my cat. She wakes me up every morning at 430 for some reason.

My kitty saves my ass when I don't hear my alarm. He jumps up on the bad and whacks me across the face with his paw and meows.

[sunshine 2]

My kitty does the same thing. If my alarm keeps going off and i keep hitting snooze, she jumps on me and nudges my face til i wake up.

I'm deaf.. I use a timer (set time) and at desired time it sets off a flashing strobe light. It will wake me on the first flash! I set it away from near the bed.. that way I gotta get up and turn off! once I'm up and on my feet I won't go back bed for a "snooze".... works great and it never wakes anyone else up..

I'm retired now and don't have to get up at 4:00 am any more. The only thing that makes me get out of bed is when I have to go pee.
