How do you wake up in the morning?

Asked by awomanscorned (11261points) November 6th, 2010 from iPhone

I turn annoying beeping alarms off while I’m still asleep so I end up being late. If I turn it on talk radio it just melds into my dreams. If I turn music on I lay in bed half asleep listening to it. What wakes you up in time for work/school in the morning?

When I worked it was an annoying alarm clock that I used to hit the snooze several times. Now that I have been out of work, my dog gets me up every morning, thinking I should get up at the same time I used to when I worked. How does she know what time it is?

I use my cell phone as my alarm clock. My cell phone grabs my attention because I always jump for it in case it’s my husband calling, so it wakes me up really easily.

I stretch my arms, yawn a little, wash up, then grab some coffee.

Whenever the my little one wakes up is when I do. She is my alarm.

If it’s a good day, I wake up when I wake up. Otherwise, I use my cell phone as my alarm because I can pick a more mellow way to wake up than the annoying beeping of my nightstand clock. Oh, and I usually set my alarm for about half an hour before I need to get up, so I can repeatedly hit the snooze button and gradually wake up.

After that, it’s coffee straight away and then about an hour before I’m actually awake and functional. Not at all a morning person.

Having to take a wiz, and if my fiancee is over she knows how to wake me up and when she is done I want to go back to sleep for being wore out.

I use my phone as an alarm and have “One Day In Your Life” by Anastacia as my wake up call.

I’m not working or going to school. I wake up to nothing but the end of a dream. Then I head for the coffee pot.

@Leanne1986 – That is a really good idea! I didn’t think of putting a song on my phone for that purpose, but I think I will now. :)

@MissAnthrope Anstacia has a big voice, it often makes me jump out of my slumber!
