I overheard a conversation between two girls at lunchtime today.
“Oh I love sleeping in on the weekend”, said the first one. “Really? I can’t sleep past 7.00AM no matter how hard I try” was her friend’s odd reply. I thought to myself, “I wish I had that girl’s disease”. I can sleep in almost all day, and every morning when I have to get up for work and look over at my clock I hope to myself that somehow my wife got up in the middle of the night and set my alarm an hour back so I would wake up but then realise I could go back to sleep. This indeed has never happened. This need for more sleep has caused what most would think was an insane habit. I set my alarm for 20 minutes before I have to leave. When the alarm goes off I then hit snooze for ten minutes. When I get up I then have ten minutes to get ready before I leave the house. It’s the perfect balance between thinking I can sleep for longer and having to rush around like the receptionist from the Devil Wears Prada. |
