Wake Up!

Well Shit.

I'm going to have to buy a new alarm clock. I hate that. Really, I tend to grow rather attached to the buggers and hate hate HATE to throw them out.

But I think this one is officially dead.

I don't know if it's because of the number of times it's been thrown across the room. Or knocked off the table. Or the millions of times over the years that I have hit the snooze button but that sucker just ain't ringin' anymore.

Damn. So - what do I get as a replacement?

Hmmm - I'm thinkin' THIS will not work. No, it may sound like a good idea, but I'm not really that difficult to wake up. And you really don't want me in a bad mood when I climb out of bed, and this might just push me over the edge. Plus the damned thing looks like shit on wheels. Yeah, I'm thinkin' NOT.

And this Zen Clock? Yeah - No. A chime? A persistant, yet gentle, chime? Yeah, wake up naturally? I've got some ideas for that and chimes don't really fit in there.....Not. Not for this girl.

I don't know if this Technical Clock will wake me up or not, cause the flippin' description PUTS ME TO SLEEP!! "differentiating the various sleeping phases" yada yada yada. No thank you very much.

Yeah, I'll just stop by Walmart over the weekend, pick me up a nice battery operated clock that's just obnoxious enough to get my attention. Nothin' fancy for me. But holy cow - whoda thunk there'd be all these choices?!?!?!

And before any smartass says it - yes, I checked the batteries. It's running. It just won't ring for the alarm. ;-)

Tammi,
Just use the alarm on your cell phone.

Use your blackberry... heh. Of course if you tend to thow it across the room, that might not be a bad idea. But you could put it across the room and use it as a backup, just in case. *grin*
