Going back to sleep

Titania (gone for lunch)

Haven't you all felt some mornings, when the alarm clock goes off, 'Groan, only a few more minutes', hitting the snooze button.

People think me nuts, but this is what I sometimes do when I have a day off:

I let the alarm clock go off at its usual time, just to be able to turn it off, turn my shoulder, and fall right back into sleep again, knowing I don't need to get up. Heaven!

I discovered this, after noticing how I always had my best sleep only minutes before it was time to get up. In this way, I can continue the best part of sleep...smiley - bigeyes

Variation: If I discover I'm hungry when the alarm clock goes off, I get up, have BIG breakfast and THEN go back to bed, having no trouble falling asleep again since I always get a bit sleepy after eating...smiley - bigeyes

ringo (it's not all right)

variation: going back to bed after a hugh breakfast but not slleping. Just daydreams, good music and some fags. And Though you might know taht there is bright sunshine outside you don't care at all smiley - smiley

...but of course it makes it even easier, and more enjoyable, if it's a cold, grey autumn morning with the rain pouring down.
Finding that still warm little pit you've left in the bed, and curl up in it, pulling the duvee up to your chin...smiley - bigeyes

Zorpheus - I'm so hip I have difficulty seeing over my pelvis.

better yet, when you can curl up w/ someone and keep each other warm.
