What To Do About.com: What To Do About 5 AM

  • wtdaTim · 3 months ago
    I have to say that I almost feel convicted about the early morning... like I need to be disciplined enough to get up early and get started with my day early. Buuuuut I just prefer getting up in the 8 o'clock hour. I like 11am-7pm... those are my glory hours.

    If I do have to get up early I think I would need to get some sort of jolt... coffee, tea, a quick workout or somethin... not a slap in the face... well... I wouldn't mind slapping someone else in the face, that would be great!

    Don't doubt the power of a good face slap! It work in many different situations.

    Maybe I can get a part-time job being a morning face slapper?!

    People can hire me to show up at their house in the early morning hours and give them a nice smacker every 5 minutes until they wake up.

    I haven't seen 5am in a while.

    I'm on campus everyday by 9am, and go to 730am mass on sundays.............but 5am, who are you?

    Oh 5 am! My friend 5 days a week for almost 4 years now.

    No slap in the face or coffee needed to get me up. Just the first sound of the alarm gets me up and out of bed ... because I too can't stand hearing the wah, wah, wah over and over again or see how people can hit snooze several times so they hear the same sound like 4 times or more in the morning. Once is enough for me.

    The only way it becomes easier (as it did for me) is to be disciplined in going to bed early the night before and do it every day for a year or so. Then it will become routine and not so hard anymore. If you can't, then maybe a bucket of cold water thrown on you or a blow horn might work.

    Dually noted!

    the blow horn would just give me a heart attack... then I wouldn't be getting up at 5am anymore... I would be dead!
  • spoola · 3 months ago
    Well then you wouldn't need to worry about getting up at 5 am anymore ... if you ever had to in the future.

    But a blow horn could probably wake the dead.
