    Chinese gong ringer on my cell phone. I want to get one of those gradually brightening lights, though...

    Why wake up to some harsh alarm when you can wake to the soothing strums of David Gilmour!

    I do something similar, except I have David Gilmour get up before me, fix me coffee, then play a song for me to wake up to. *He* gets up to an alarm though.


    ...did you know Miles Davis used to get a bunch of musicians to play in his basement, with microphones hooked to speakers throughout his house, just so he'd have some nice music to listen to throughout the day? That's the fucking LIFE right there!

    One of my roommates in the Army used to wake us up to the soundtrack of Good Morning, Vietnam, which was actually kind of cool for the first couple of weeks. After several days of trying to talk him into some sort of CD rotation, I came home drunk and switched his CD with a really heavy death metal band (sounded a little like Sepultura, but the name of the band escapes me). Let's just say that when the stereo kicked on about four hours later, Wes didn't waste a whole lot of time rubbing the sleep sand out of his eyes before getting out of bed, lol...

    He never lets her sleep over. Once he's done with her, he kicks her out.

    I have one of those lights, it doesn't really help all that much to be honest.

    In college, I made a ghetto version where a heat lamp pointed at my bed would turn on at like 630am but eventually I got used to that too.

    I have a two year old with the same kind of radar. I think their mothers teach them where to kick.

    I think it's less maternal plot than it is a thousand monkeys and a thousand typewriters.

    Or in this case, spastic monkeys on Red Bull and coke using semi-awake human beings as trampolines.
