haha yeah, 'half seven' = 7.30, apparently it's exclusively a british thing.
like norwegian, 'halb sieben' german is 6.30.
confusing. |

"My bodyclock wakes me up at half 7 every morning."
Half 7? Is that really how you say 7:30 over there? |

An Ode to my clock:
I promise never to ask "Why?",
I will only ask you "When?".
And you seem to be partially aware,
That I prefer my numbers base 10
But when alarmed, i've noticed perhaps,
You refuse to allow me to choose.
It's only nine minutes elapsed,
'Til again you allow me to snooze.

I don't need an alarm clock. I'm a lousy bum who doesn't work and sleeps in til about 1pm everyday. |

I'm usually pretty good with getting up in the morning. My bodyclock wakes me up at half 7 every morning. |

This is why I have an alarm clock for the deaf that shakes the bed like an earthquake. It doesn't matter how poorly I've slept, I am not getting back to sleep after that thing goes off. |

Why is the logic flawed? This would positively create less snooze button presses. Unless they were into self inflicted stigmata or something religy like that. |

When your comfortable in bed, you can come up with 100 different reasons why that extra five minutes is going to mean all the difference in the world... |

I used to set my alarm clock across the room, on a shelf. you will learn to sleepwalk to press snooze if the button exists. |

I always wake up give or take a few minutes prior to my alarm going off.. Always have, haven't actually heard the thing in a long time. |

And just this morning (okay, noon) I conscientiously hit my alarm clock so many times that I woke up at the exact time I was supposed to be at work. F*ck. I don't even remember hitting it. I'm sure I was sleep-hitting it. Time to set my phone alarm and place it on the other side of the goddamn room again. F*ck you, brain. F*ck you. |

It's a good idea until you hit it out of habit. Do it and your day goes to hell before you're out of bed. |

I've had to put mine on the other side of the room so my subconscious doesn't hit the snooze button and make me late. It's a Wallace & Gromit clock, like this one here:
If I'm not quick enough, it gets to the end of the theme tune and starts all over again. |
