What do you do to get yourselves up in the morning?

I usually shower the night before, so I don't shower in the morning. Perhaps I should start showering in the morning //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

I'm a night owl. Usually ALWAYS am up till at least 1 or 2 AM. Even when I have to be at work @ 8AM. Just cant sleep before that for some reason. On the early mornings, if I get 4-5 hours in I'm usually good, but can do 3-4 ina pinch if neccesary. On weekends and days off I usually make up for it by sleeping 12-14 hours, and sometimes not getting out of bed till around 4PM. My work day routine consists of:

*Being awakened by the alarm 1 1/2 hours before work. Me slamming the snooze button.

*Me crawling out of bed, groggy, due at work in 45 minutes.

*Me staggering to the bathroom, deficate/urinate, wash face/hands, brush teeth, throw on some clothes. (10-15 minutes).

*Me getting in my car and driving to work (15-20 minutes, depending on traffic).

*Me arriving at work (-10 to +10 minutes of 8, depending on traffic).

Thing that sucks is I get a new schedule Friday of every week. One week I might work 4 days of 8-4:30PM, with 1 day of 12-8PM, with Monday and Thursday off. The next week I may have 3 days of 4:30PM-1am, 2 days 10-6:30PM, with Sat. and Wed. off. Really messes with my head and sleeping patterns sometimes.

I have not solved my getting up problems.

The shot of tequila and tobasco sauce sounds like fun.

For some fukd up reason I usually wake up about 2-3 minutes before my alarm goes off. I get so pissed that I don't have enough time to get back to sleep before the alarm clock goes off I just get up. Nothing like starting your day angry...its great //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif

Umm, that's your body waking yourself up naturally and telling you it is ready to be awake. Going back to sleep at that point is stupid because you are just going to get woken up while your body is trying to go through another sleep cycle, which is bad.

It works. But it's awful. I do it RARELY, mainly because its sketchy to rely on booze to get up in the morning haha. But if you have a horrible tiredness, it does the trick.

I hit the snooze button a couple times, turn on the kettle, and then shower, get dressed, and then make green tea and drink it on the way to work.
