He usually gets up sometime between 10am and noon on days he works
because his job is flexible and he can go in at 1pm or later
BUT! Today he wanted to get inventory done early so he was supposed to go in at 8.
Alarm goes off at 7. His mom & her guy are up. He just...resets the alarm (or turns it off completely) and doesn't stir again until
I wake him up at 8:20 to ask what time it is
He doesn't use snooze! I DON'T UNDERSTAND
he always tries to reset the alarm for like, 30 minutes to an hour later.
even though he's usually not awake enough to manage this properly
and he usually doesn't get up THEN either
so I'm torn between shouting "GROW UP AND WAKE UP ON TIME" and just feeling really bad for him
shurimon: It's kinda cute and kind of frustrating all at the same time. We can never plan anything for the morning.
Hahah sounds like my brother
Me? I more or less wake up on time because if I have to get up earlier than normal I have panic dreams about oversleeping.
feygasm: Is it a boy thing? LOL. Granted my mother also sleeps through multiple alarms
riprosencrantz: It is good but he won't have this job forever. It's nice people and a nice company but it's not enough to sustain us
And oh god I have those too, Caitlin
The panic dreams about being late I mean
except I have them even when I'm nowhere close to being late /sobs
feygasm: WHY?! WHY DOES THAT HAPPEN! just to wake up 15 minutes before the alarm scrambling 'oh god oh god did I sleep through it?'
Nope. Could've KEPT sleeping. Or I'll wake up several times in the middle of the night, ffs
Oh man and then you wake up from the dream
and you're just like "WHY"
and then you just get up because FUCK YOU AIN'T SLEEPING AGAIN ANYWAY
YOU CAN'T EVEN REALLY HAVE COFFEE YET
NGL that is like my prime ficwriting/RP time
But my mother sleeps through alarms that sound like the building is falling down (she had a pillow shaker)
because there is nothing else to do
And yes, the panic dreams happen to me, too
Maybe your boyfriend has problems like I have. This morning I had an "instructor" type person in my DREAM tell me it was better if I slept
until the very last alarm.
and Thomas is just like "no prob, I'll reset it" half awake and then asking me 3 hours later what happened to the alarm.
And I was all, "Okay, you'd know best. |D /snooooze"
Him: No I didn't! It didn't go off!
I have to punch in a password to turn my alarm off XD
hah I should do that to his phone
(and I set like five because I'M A PARANOID FOOL)
18 if I hit it twice, then I gotta hustle
not that hard! a half hour would totally throw me off
tbh I wake up like a half hour earlier than I really have to
just for the luxury of not having to get up right away
feygasm: I've donet that. Not with school & the bus situation because I'll just get up and take the earlier bus, but for work on Sundays.
It's a little harder here because 4 adults + 1 bathroom = morning pandemonium
also because his mother is not a quiet person XD
TBH, I'm not sure how he sleeps through that
(she's also an anxious person so I heard 3 instances this morning of "but I can't find it?!" before I got up)
He probably got used to it
