Spinoff: What time is your alarm set for, and when do you actually get up?

[Fire Me Boy!]

Used to, I'd set the alarm for 6 a.m. and snooze as long as I could before having to get up and go to work. Usually about 6:45 is when I'd get up.

Once I got a CPAP and started sleeping well, I discovered I'm kind of a morning person. For the last several years, I've set my alarm for 5 a.m. I usually wake about 5 minutes before it goes off, and as soon as it goes off I get up. I can count on one hand and have a shocker left over the number of times I've snoozed in the past few years.

I had never pushed snooze a single time in my life until I started sleeping with my wife. Now I usually hit it far too many times. Damn wife.

If shit is rolling hard I don’t have trouble getting up.

During the week, alarm goes off at 5:30am, I'm out of bed by 5:40am. No alarm on the weekends but I'm usually up by 7:00am to get to the stores and such before traffic becomes a shitshow.

[dmahurin]

alarm at 545 out of bed by 6. Usually wake up 5 minutes before alarm but lay there and mope about having to get up.

[lewdog]

Alarm set for 4:50 during the week.

I almost always wake up between 4:30-4:40, while being out of bed by 4:45 before the alarm.

No alarms on weekends and I usually sleep in until 7-7:30, while also going to bed later on weekend nights.

[Spott]

6:00, 6:09 and finally get up at 6:18.

[Hoopsdoc]

4:00, 4:15 and 4:25 on my phone. Lately, I always shut off the 4 and get up at 4:15.

Saturday I've been known to sleep until 9:30 or 10.

[Fire Me Boy!]

I still have the alarm on weekends. I don't like to modify my sleep schedule.

[ChiliConCarnage]

I don't use an alarm unless something unusual is going on

[Coochie liquor]

Work day alarm is set for 530, I get up and am out of bed about 515.

Non work day I don't set the alarm and am usually up at 515.

Sucks!

[stumppy]

Mine is set to go off when the Chiefs make it to the Super Bowl. Hope the batteries last long enough.

[listopencil]

I set my alarm for one hour before work, plus travel time. I will snooze for a maximum of fifteen minutes depending on how I feel when the alarm goes off. Occasionally I will wake up before the alarm goes off and I will then stay awake.

[KChiefs1]

5:30 & 5:45

[Kman34]

Alarm set for 5:50am.....up by 5:51am...

^^^^^

I can't even sleep in on weekends.

[Bwana]

I normally don't set an alarm, I just wake up at 5. If I have something set in absolute stone, I set my alarm for 5 just to make sure. I never hit the snooze button, I just get up, wrestle the champ and head for the coffee pot.

[Pablo]

I have a 14 month old alarm clock. Whenever he decides to get up, the whole family is getting up. Between 530-615 typically most days.

I don't mind being up early on the weekend. I get to maximize my me-time that way. Although a nap would be nice every now and again, I usually can't make myself take one.

[Dunit35]

Two days a week I wake up at 5:09am and don't hit the snooze.
Four days a week I wake up at 7:09am to take my girls to school.
One day a week (Sundays) I wake up around 8:30am or so.

[eDave]

I jolt up right when the alarm goes off. Then scream into my pillow because the day is going to s*******.

[splatbass]

4:30, and immediately get up. I don't think hitting snooze helps, it just means I have to wake up twice.

[Bearcat]

I prefer other posters. :D

[Bearcat]

5:50am... for a while I'd snooze until about 6:30, then for a little while I'd just set the damn thing for 6:30, but lately I've actually been working out in the morning, so I hit a 5 minute snooze at 550 and have been getting up before it goes off a second time.

Go me.

[tmax63]

Work day alarm is set for 530, I get up and am out of bed about 515.

Non work day I don't set the alarm and am usually up at 515.

Sucks!

This is me. After 32+ years of getting up at 5:30 I am normally awake by 5:15 or so and I get up so I don't wake up the dogs or the war department. I use those first couple hours as me time now to get a cup of coffee or two and catch up on news on the computer.

[jimidollar]

My alarm is set for 2:45am 5 days a week. I'm out of bed at 2:45am. I've never been a snooze guy. Get up and go!

[HemiEd]

The only time I have used an alarm the last 25 years is to catch an early flight after a night of drinking great beer in Germany. :D

[007]

4pm but I keep waking up at 1pm. It sucks.

[Rain Man]

My alarm is set for 2:45am 5 days a week. I'm out of bed at 2:45am. I've never been a snooze guy. Get up and go!

On behalf of everyone here, thank you for making the doughnuts.

[milkman]

2 am. and have never used a snooze.

[Why Not?]

No alarm necessary. Up at between 5:30-6:15/6:30 everyday, 7 days a week. If I did use an alarm, no snooze. Once I'm awake, a truck load of sedatives wouldn't put me back to sleep.

[philfree]

After a certain age you just wake up and it's way to early.

[2bikemike]

I set my alarm for 4:30 I am usually awake around 4 or 4:15. Sometimes I will just lay there until the alarm goes, but usually get up and get moving.

[BlackHelicopters]

I get up at 4:15 everyday. No alarm. Sleep is a habit.

[Nzoner]

No alarm unless I have something to do before 7 a.m. Normally I just wake up around 7ish unless I had a rough night before.
