Why do you set your alarm clock for 7am, if when it goes off, you're just going to reset it to 7:30 anyway? If you know you have enough time in the morning to get up later, and considering that 90% of the time, you do reset your alarm for later after the first time it goes off, why in the world do you set it earlier to begin with?

Why do I have to lay there at 7:02am listening to you snoring again while my blood pounds and heart thumps, knowing that even if I do manage to fall back asleep, it will likely take me 20 minutes to do so, so what's the point, considering that I have to get up at 7:30 anyway?

It's bad enough that I seem to be incapable of going to bed on time, and it's bad enough that even if I were to fall asleep the instant I go to bed (which I don't), that I'd only get 6 hours of sleep. But then getting another half hour shaved off because you decide to set the alarm clock earlier than necessary? It's not fair.

I shouldn't be so annoyed. He hardly ever sets his alarm earlier than mine. If I hadn't been so annoyed, I probably would have been able to fall back asleep.

How the heck can he fall back asleep so easy? Getting up when the alarm goes off is the one thing I am good at doing, *on time*.

Dear God, I'm so awful at that I cannot even describe. I've turned sleeping right through the alarm for half an hour or more without waking into an art form and hitting the snooze button just to pick up on my last dream right where I left off into a skill. Only fear of losing things will get me out of bed at any hour my body considers ridiculous, and sometimes even "losing things" is not compelling enough of a reason. I can get ready in two minutes flat and be only five minutes late anywhere given enough practice at it. I had one job I never got up for any more than 20 minutes before I had to be there.

The world just does not understand how cruel sunlight on a night owl before 11am actually feels.
