the anatomy of a morning routine (as deconstructed by my brain)

6:00 am - alarm rings. (Luckily my clock is set 9 minutes fast for situations just such as this. snooze.)
6:09 am - alarm rings. (I should get up if I want to shower and straighten my hair. snooze.)
6:18 am - alarm rings. (I can always wear my hair curly today. snooze)
6:27 am - alarm rings. (If I slick it back in a bun, I can do hot curlers tomorrow. snooze.)
6:36 am - alarm rings. (It's winter. No one will see my legs. I don't need to shave. snooze.)
6:45 am - alarm rings. (Sticking my head under the tap is just as good as a shower. snooze.)
6:54 am - alarm rings. (A spray bottle and some bobby pins will do the trick. snooze.)
7:03 am - alarm rings. (Forget the spray bottle. Wild curls are in. snooze.)
7:12 am - alarm rings. (Well, if I'm not going to bother doing my hair, I might as well get in a few more winks. snooze.)
7:21 am - alarm rings. (Okay, okay. I'm up, I'm up. snooze.)
7:30 am - alarm rings. (Crap.)

Ha ha, I do the same thing, except it goes something like this...

6:00 -I'll just exercise for 45min instead of 1hr. Snooze.
6:09-6:15 -let alarm go, finally decide 1/2hr of exercise is plenty. Snooze.
6:24-6:30 -let alarm go forever. Decide I'll exercise after work. Snooze.
6:39-6:45 -Listen to whatever stupid song is on the radio when the alarm sounds, keep listening. Decide I'll shower tomorrow. Snooze...don't hear the alarm when it goes off again...
7:53 oh my gosh I have to leave for work 3 minutes ago! Ahhhh!
