Sounds just like my day. Except I get up an hour earlier. And I don’t wear pajamas. And I’ve never owned a team of horses. Or a gladiator outfit.

Okay, it sounds nothing like my day.

So you get roughly 5 hours sleep a night? How are you not dead? Fewer than 7 and I’m a total wreck!

Grogipher said in March 25th, 2008 at 7:21 am

Oh how I long for routine :( x

I am slightly bitter that your lame ass post is so much funnier than my lame ass post. Bastard.

Why you make fun of asian people Craig. We all don’t look angry. I look very happy all times. Maybe you watch many movie with angry asian people. Please watch movie with happy asian people.

Maybe you should take that Wall Street raise and get an apartment closer to the City so you can sleep a bit more. I get cranky when I have to get up earlier than 8AM.

I actually know why the snooze is 9 minutes and not 10 — simplicity in mechanics. When the snooze is turned on, the clock looks for the number that is one less than the minute number from when the snooze had been activated. It takes more engineering and parts to recognize another number.

I’m a dork.

Craig said in March 25th, 2008 at 8:07 am

Interesting! Thanks JoshB!

I say this having been up all night finishing a job application and mini-portfolio: How can you survive on only 5 hours (okay, 5 hours, 37 minutes) of sleep every night? Sometimes I like a nice cozy 10 hours, not to mention at least a standard 7-8.

I always suspected snooze abuse had the side effect of Asian. I also was unaware that Nicolas Cage was our National Treasure. Good information. Thanks.

Just three snoozes? My alarm will do five and I use them all, then I have my cell alarm set as a backup.

Z said in March 25th, 2008 at 9:08 am

Only 3 times with the snooze button? I’m impressed! Today I think I hit… um… 7? 8? Yeah…

Alice said in March 25th, 2008 at 9:11 am

i’m sure you’re aware of this fact, but 4:10 is an utterly insane time to have to get up.

Avitable said in March 25th, 2008 at 9:58 am

I don’t use an alarm. I just wake up somewhere between 6 and 7 every morning. And I enjoy my leisurely four second commute to my office.

Craig said in March 25th, 2008 at 10:20 am

Avitable - I hate you.

Ok, Where Was I? said in March 25th, 2008 at 10:47 am

Now I want to pick you up and put you on my lap and pet you all day. Until I suddenly remember you have little sharp kitten claws and then I send you sailing across the room.

Lather, rinse, repeat - for the next 40 years. Honestly, I don’t know why they don’t allow alcohol at work. Or… you could find yourself a nice rich husband and stay home and take care of the kids and work on your charities, but that presents a different set of problems, which can only be solved by pills and nice clothes. At least that’s what the lady authors say.

I had no idea there were two 4:30s on the clock.

Jason said in March 25th, 2008 at 11:51 am

I love seeing what other people’s mundane routines look like. But your mundane looks pretty fun. Except that part about getting squished by Jabba the Hut.

Jere said in March 25th, 2008 at 12:15 pm

If you move the 4:30 to 7:30, and the going to sleep at 11:00 to going to sleep at 2:00 a.m., that’s a lot like my routine. Except for the looking adorable when I sleep part. I look more like a large, ugly, flatulent sea lion: http://www.darwinsgalapagos.com/gallery/sleeping-sea_rock.jpg

Polt said in March 25th, 2008 at 12:44 pm

Sleeping like a kitten but waking up an angry Asian?

Eh, I’ve dated worse guys. You’re still tops in my book, Craiggers.

HUGS…

Bittersweet Confusion said in March 25th, 2008 at 1:12 pm

I love my snooze… I have a relationship with my snooze… My job hates my snooze…

Maggie said in March 25th, 2008 at 2:01 pm

Sounds like a pretty good routine to me! Well other than the having to work part…and the getting up early part…

On second thought, clearly you are a saint for keeping such a schedule!

chamblee54 said in March 25th, 2008 at 3:03 pm

If you were the nephew of Francis Ford Coppola, then you could be in movies too.

Thomas B. said in March 25th, 2008 at 6:06 pm

Woaw, you wake up SO early ! I will never dare complaining again next I have to get up at 6AM again… :)

ChrisNJ1977 said in March 25th, 2008 at 7:52 pm

That sounds like a tough commute. I can see why you are so busy. Thanks for taking the time to blog for us. Your efforts are appreciated.

I have not been a morning person in many years. My alarm seems to wake me up just enough to start having awesome dreams. My snooze duration is ten minutes. Some days I can snooze for hours. Every ten minutes I will hit my snooze button while in this semi-waking-dream state. It is not optimally restful, but it seems to be good exercise for my mind. Fortunately my job accommodates my random sleep habits. Eventually I want to get used to waking up before noon. I will have to work on that. ;)

Congratulations on the raise, I am sure it is well deserved.

Ξ_Heather said in March 25th, 2008 at 7:55 pm

And here I thought you WROTE the posts at 4am, and was impressed that you were such an early morning person!

I had no idea that there was a mechanical reason for the 9 minute snooze — I assumed it was because 10 minutes would just feel like WAY too much time, and people would revolt.

Derek said in March 25th, 2008 at 10:07 pm

I “read” on the way to work as well. I’ve just started considering it a talent to be half asleep standing up and still aware when your stop is coming up.

glassbox said in March 25th, 2008 at 11:05 pm

ok you made us laugh. happy now?

nice post ;o)

I laughed so hard.
Stumbled ya, this one needs some traffic.
Too funny!

Christine said in March 28th, 2008 at 1:28 pm

Nicolas Cage does suck, but I am still jealous of my friend who made out with him in his Valley Girl days. I still kinda have a crush on him…must noodle this one through.
