Here's a new game just fot the heck of it

What woke you up today?

Today - Lawnmower outside my window  :\'(

Deep depression thoughts

Deep depression thoughts


Oh dear... :-\\

I do hope you were able to shake those thoughts, Phil...



I was awaken by pain shooting down the center of my back, which I somehow managed to tweak in my sleep... :(

Thanks, I will explain more later

So do I!

The heavy rains and thunderstorms this morning.

Same here.....it started Tues night/Wed morning and I keep doing it somehow :(

My roomie doing the Army sound-off thing. :P  The fact that she didn't do it right made it worse.

Alarm clock.

The noise and scent of my own noxious fumes.

I must learn to stay away from Mexican food!!!!!!!!!!

...and sleep with a window open?

My alarm clock.  :(

The alarm clock...after I hit the snooze button about 10 times.  ;D

Snoring, as usual  >:(

My... mind?

The sun! I missed it

Vaughn

My mind telling me that I no longer needed sleep. At 12pm...

The bright sunshine.

a very hyper child climbing into bed with me :D :)

a very hyper child climbing into bed with me :D :)


That's how I wake up on the weekends.

It was 7:30, I told the kids to go see daddy and come back when the clock read 8-3-0.  ;D

This morning my mind told me that I no longer needed sleep.  6:40am

I was waken in the wee hours of the morning to the sound of my husband snoring (who will tell you that he doesn't snore  ::) ) and I thought to myself, "ooh, now I can post in that thread on the message board" and then fell back asleep again.  :D ;D ;D ;D




Cat

Vaughn

A dog, she came and licked my face until I rolled off the couch and let her out.

The first time, my hubby coming to bed
The second time, a ravenous cat wanting fed walking on my head
The third time, a bad dream about a friend's brother who is in Iraq

The third time, a bad dream about a friend's brother who is in Iraq


Thursday night, I had one of my murder dreams, where I'm killing somebody. Anyway, it was so real that it woke me up at about 5am and for at least 15 minutes I was debating if I should call the cops and tell them or not, until I finally realized it hadn't happened.

OMG Now *That* would frighten the bejesus out of me.  I'd probably be up for the rest of the day if I had one of those dreams.


Has anyone ever tried Valerian Root to get to sleep?  I did, once, and it gave me HORRIBLE nightmares (but when I take Melatonin - I don't seem to have nightmares) so I never took Valerian Root ever again.

I have no idea what Valerian Root is? So I doubt I've ever taken it.

I have dreams like that quite often and usually I can't get back to sleep.. they're so real, like I said, I really think I've killed somebody or something.

What's the thing they give you in place of Ambien? That gives me real weird dreams.

I have no idea what Valerian Root is? So I doubt I've ever taken it.



I'm assuming it's the root of the Valerian plant (whatever that is)  ;D
All I know is that you can buy both the Valerian Root and Melatonin in the Vitamin sections of most grocery stores.

Melatonin works best for me, so I only mentioned to my doctor once about takiing it and he said "Well...if it works for you, then go for it.."  Alrighty then, I will.

Lunesta seems to be the biggest advertised prescription sleep aid currently, although I don't imagine it's the most prescribed yet..

Other Sleep Aids apparently include:
Mirtazapine 7.5mg (Mirtazapine is marketed under the tradenames Remeron® in the U.S. and Finland, Avanza® and Axit® in Australia, Zispin® in the UK & Ireland, Norset® in France, Remergon® in Belgium, Remergil® in Germany and Mirtabene® in Austria.)

Ambien rules all.

A) F****in jerk. B) Why didn't you punch her?


Maybe 'cause i have a mean punch and i could've kill her ???

At 5 a.m. a furball had to climb on my neck-but laid in my face-as in covering my nose and mouth so I couldn't breath.  ::)  She moved around a bit but then went down to the foot of the bed and I fell back asleep. But I woke later by a pain in my lower back.  :(




Cat

The same dog as yesterday, she's a cutey and lets me go back to sleep as soon as I let her out.

my alarm

It's sunday and u use an alarm?  Pity.  I had dogs/puppies howing at 4 something. then because I was awake the cats decided they wanted food...which strictly speaking was 5am but early for them.they usually have to wait til 5:30- 6:15 for Kibble.  Then, after another hour of  sleep my niece crawled into the room in her cute new jogging suit and stood up balancing herself at the foot of my bed.  She's only 1 and did not get on the bed, but she had her mom, my sister, following her saying, "say good morning auntie then lets go find your shoes."  Fairly busy house! no matter what time it is.

cellphone at top volume. I gotta stop falling asleep with that thing next to my head, my ears are still ringing.

My daughter :)

The sudden need to open my eyes.

4.15 am my son to tell me he'd wet the bed.  then my alarm at 6.45.

The knowledge that I had 20 minutes to get my @$$ up, get showered, fuel up, and get to Chico for band rehearsal, for our Cinco de Mayo gig.

The alarm clock.

I have no idea what Valerian Root is? So I doubt I've ever taken it.

This is valerian, I have it growing in my garden!

My alarm clock. (the roomie that works third shift)

Dang alarm clock, again.  >:(

I want to be able to sleep later than 5:45.  :(

The phone.




Cat

I was awakened this morning by my aching back.   :(  I think I pulled a muscle or something - it's been hurting all week.


I had that happen to me just the other day, and I know how painful it is...

I do hope your back feels better soon, Ash... :)

Do you eat it to go to sleep?

^ It's suppose to have a relaxing effect, but probably not put you to sleep.

I think my boyfriend woke me, but I can't be for certain.

Do you eat it to go to sleep?


You can either take a pill of Valerian extract, or sometimes they have it in tea form.

As for me- my wife's alarm clock, which isn't so bad....except it was G'n'R.

(Persoanlly, I prefer April Wine, classical, or jazz.)

My Radio.

Yes, I go to church on Sunday mornings and I have a tendency to sleep in when I have to be up early...so it's safer for me to set the alarm then to rely on just waking up. LOL! :D

Erin- does your alarm go "-woot-woot-woot"?

I don't know... What DID wake you up today?

Erin- does your alarm go "-woot-woot-woot"?



hahahaa....actually it does sound similiar to that noise! :D ;D

I don't know... What DID wake you up today?


;D heheheh  I guess I should have worded that differently as "What woke YOU up today?"  Oh well, the grammar police can just come take me to jail, as per usual.


What woke me up?  The heat of the mid-day sun and my husband checking on me to see if I were still alive...  ;D

As usual nothing ever changes...the alarm clock.

This is valerian, I have it growing in my garden!


That is quite pretty.  :)

That is quite pretty.  :)
It is, it can spread like mad though.

My wife saying that she had an appointment in 30 minutes, and could I get our daughter ready for school.

At about 5 a.m., my husband woke me when he yelled in pain.  :\'( :\'( :\'(  After I FINALLY got back to sleep, the phone woke me up-AGAIN for the second day in a row-by the same person.  >:(




Cat

My cell phone, which I use for an alarm.

My dog barking to be let out.  A very urgent bark!

My radio alarm.. more specifically DJ Chris Moyle's voice  :P

My biological clock.

Is it time for baby making?  ;D

No It's not time yet,But It'll let me know soon enough. ;D

And you know what I'm talking about,Do You? ;D ;)

And you know what I'm talking about,Do You? ;D ;)


I think so, lol

Actually, when you said Biological Clock, it is actually your Circordian cycle (the clock in your brain that keeps time, light-dark differences, etc.)

Ugh....nothing a BB gun wouldn't solve.

the sunlight

Ugh....nothing a BB gun wouldn't solve.


I thought about that, but I wouldn't want to ruin the BBs :D

my alarm clock, and I hit the snooze button twice, and as I was getting up, I thought to myself, just 2 more minutes, and then that became 25 minutes and I barely woke up in time to get ready and go to work

Alarm clock and then Ian running down the stairs, I had fallen back to sleep whilst he was in the bathroom.

A weird dream I had involving me trying to tell Mike (Tia) how to turn the shower off and getting cross because he kept messing about.

Hubby in the bathroom, as usual ::)

My window being opened by the roomate.  She told me it was going to be about 82 degrees.

My daughter who slept with me because she wasn't feeling well...she tossed and turned all night long waking me up about 20 times. 

Hubby in the bathroom, as usual ::)



Um...I don't think I want to know.



For me, about 5 a.m. a little fur ball decided that it was time to curl up on my neck and purr her little brains out. That wasn't so bad because after a few minutes she decided to go elsewhere. (unlike what she has done on other days  ::))




Cat

First time - Hungry cat meowing in my husband's face (Amazingly he didn't wake up)

Second time - Thirst.  I think I dehydrated.  I could probably drink about 3 cups of water right about now.

My Nightlight.

that stupid annoying alarm clock  >:(

The sudden urge to visit another room

first time at about 5.30 was for a trip to the bathroom then my alarm clock went at 6.45

My radio.

Vaughn woke up very early (before Chris even left for work)...but then he fell back asleep...or maybe he just stayed up the whole time and played....so that I could sleep a few more hours.

Alarm.

Um...I don't think I want to know.


Cat
;D ;D ;D  not that.....he dropped the bottle of shampoo in the shower ;D ;D ;D


today, it was the birds fighting outside my window.....at least it sounded like they were fighting, one was squawking like crazy and the other was making a funny noise as well (don't know how to describe it)

My son screaming/crying...he fell back to sleep when I put him in my bed.

I had to go to the restroom.

Lady Di

The sudden urge to visit another room


My cat does that too ALOT!

Lady Di


I thought she was dead? ???

I thought she was dead? ???


Not *that* Lady Diana, princess of wales.

Badfinger fan's wife is name Diana or Diane or some variation of that, and he calls her "Lady Di" on this message board.  Badfinger's wife is very much alive.  :)

My ear hurting.  :(

I think I have water in it, it's been annoying me all day.

.. I don't think they were fighting....... nuuuuge.
whatever, they were frickin' LOUD >:(

My cat does that too ALOT!
Your cat goes to another room too?

One of the most horrific gas bubbles ever to be released into the world....and it wasn't even from me.

Your cat goes to another room too?


Indeed!  and at top speed on nary a moment's notice.

Speaking of...

She woke me up tossing her toy around, it's a bird and it has a sound chip in it that tweets when it's moved.

my alarm woke me up today....after only 3 hours of sleep :(

Since my guy was over, the alarm was set to music.  I need a full-blast BEEP BEEP BEEP to get me up when I'm alone, but a radio at regular volume works for him, and if it doesn't get me up then he nudges me until I wake up.

The alarm too...

I really miss being woke up with kisses :\'(

My daughter

About 4 a.m. Hubby yelling in pain again.  :\'( :\'( :\'(  We really need to figure out what is causing that.



Cat

I can't remember...I just sort of woke up.

Not *that* Lady Diana, princess of wales.

Ok I didn't understand he had a wife named Lady Di,My mistake. ;D

Hubby yelling at the cat to get off the table. She wasn't listening to him so I got out of bed to chase her off. (Our bedroom is right off the kitchen).




Cat

Roomie telling me she home.  flipped over fell back asleep.

You get woken up by a lot of hubby's yelling.  At least this time it was the damn cat. :)



My alarm woke me this morning.

My wife on the phone.

Nothing, I'm still trying to figure out why I'm up. :-\\

My wife on the phone.
Earlier I was having a power nap, and she woke me up, again speaking on the telephone.

I'm gonna go ahead and guess that she'd just had enough sleep.

She usually crashes at around 9 most nights.

The phone ringing.

My radio, which was playing "Bette Davis Eyes" by Kim Carnes.

You get woken up by a lot of hubby's yelling.  At least this time it was the damn cat. :)






Yeah. At least when he is in pain, he can't help it but he could have told the cat to get off the table a little bit more quietly. I think we are going to have to put "kitty repellent" on the table (vapor rub-works greats).


This morning-once again it was one of the cats. Andy decided to have a "breakfast of champions"-plastic.  ::)  Carlos didn't even hear him (or me stopping him).



Cat

My husband leaving at 5:30 to go fishing.  ::)

my daughter Julie, thank goodness she had the day off school & came in my room and asked me if I was going to work. my alarm had gone off and I shut it off, but I didn't get up and fell back to sleep.

My alarm clock.

Had to pee

the sun

Natural reasons

The alarm clock, I though about hitting the snooze button a few time but I realized I had to pee so I just got up.

My clock radio, once again.

Natural reasons (again)

Well the air vent flapping in the bathroom woke me up at about 3am  so I got up to close the bathroom door then remembered I had forgotten to reset my alarm clock so I had to go and fetch it and go into the spare room to put the light on and reset it, as I didn't want to wake himself up.

my dear daughter saying goodbye as she left for school.

A furball kissing me on the nose.




Cat

Phone ringing right next to my head.

The downstairs neighbor blasting his music or actually it was just the thumping of the bass line that woke me up.

My unspayed cat howling.

Yesterday the power kept going out and my ups thing kept beeping. Eventually I stopped flipping the switch back up and left the power off for 3 hours. Of course I had a big meltdown in my freezer but it was worth it to not have to hear beep..beep..beep all morning.

I just opened my eyes and decided I have had too much sleep.

Hubby.  ;)




Cat

I woke up coughing, then I had to go to the bathroom and by that time the kids wanted me to come down for my Mother's Day present. 

My dad.  He didn't know I had set the alarm in the guest bedroom where we sleep when we visit, so he woke me up at 7:30 (30 mins before alarm set to go off) to tell me the bathroom was free so I could shower and get ready for church.

Voices!

you'e hearing voices?  ???

my husbands alarm clock at some unearthly hour this morning.  He had to leave at 6.00 a.m. to drive to the airport.

My alarm clock followed by a huge boom of thunder over my apt to make sure I was really awake.

The neighbours next door screwing.  Either that, or the guy's name actually is "Oh Bob" lol


Well, if she had a good voice it would be ok I guess.  All I usually hear is a squeaky bed above me.  LoL


I woke up to an alarm.  Its kind of funny, usually the song playing on the alarm gets stuck in my head for the rest of the day. I must have been really tired cause I dont remember the song at all.  It was just a bunch of notes and gibberish.  Im still not awake here at work.  People calling about problems with computers and all I get hear is bla bla bla.  So I ask, what was your problem again.  They sigh, I smile, they say their problem again, only for me to say, well, someone else can help you with that.    ;D  And now im finally awake typing away.

Hubby.  ;)




Cat
hmmmm.....I wonder what got him up? ;)

My right lung being hacked out of my chest (at least, that's what it felt like) :-\\

James has had several accidents this week but he's just slept through them.  I had to throw out his pillow yesterday.


what woke me up today?  my alarm clock

Something really painful woke me up at 2:15 this morning. I had a nasty cramp in the back of my left leg. It went away in about 30 seconds, so after that I went right back to sleep.

I just woke up because I knew I had to get up and wash my hair.  I tried to go back to sleep until the alarm, but that didn't work.

LoL,

Dont you hate when you stretch at night and then you get that Oh Know feeling, but its too late.  You get a painful cramp in your leg and it takes all ounce of your energy to get it to stop.

I wish my son would just sleep through them instead of waking me!  :-\\

I had to throw out his pillow yesterday.

As often as my son has his 'accidents', there's no way I could afford doing that!

I just throw them into the wash and hang them on the clothesline for a day!

Well, at least if I had a lady friend, my mind wouldn't be on the cramp anymore.

I wasn't convinced a feather pillow would wash.  It was ancient anyway.  We seem to have a surplus of pillows in our house.  My husband is fussy about his pillows and keeps buying new ones that he then hates

I think his ideal pillow would be quilted topped air pillow with a slow leak.  He likes a fairly high pillow when he starts off in bed but likes it flat during the night.

Have you ever suggested that he starts with two and removes on before he rolls over to go to sleep?

I think I have one of those pillows somewhere around the house!  :D

I like soft pillows, but not the ones that get too flat.  I've been on a quest to find the 'perfect pillow' for years now, and I haven't had a whole lot of luck.  :-\\

An extremely full bladder.

Im glad you didn't have an accident.

Cat

The cat scratching and meowing at the bedroom door.  So, I got up, went out and fed her and all was peaceful in my little world once again.  ;)

We decided to go to sleep with the door closed since a couple days ago when our cat jumped up on the bed and landed on my hubby's head.  It startled her as much as it startled (and hurt) him because she used her back claws to get traction to vamonos when she discovered her mistake.  Not an ideal situation to wake up to, let me tell you!  :-[

You can wash feather pillows (I've done it many times) but they take forever to dry.  But since it was ancient it was probably best to toss it away or you might have had a washer full of feathers.

I have my alarm clock 5 metres away from my bed. Means I must get up to turn it off.

It sorta works

my son fell out of bed when he was getting up to go to the toilet and he hurt his foot and bumped his nose.  I hadn't long gone to sleep.  Anyway he decided the best way to get back to sleep was to come into bed with me  ::)  So I was woken about 2 hours later by an elbow in my face and then couldn't get back to sleep for his fidgetting.  I really didn't want to get out of bed this morning

Had a hard time falling asleep last night-hot flashes.  ::)  Once I finally fell asleep, I was woken by a cat hacking.  :P But, what really woke me up this morning was Hubby getting out of bed.




Cat

a young Burt Reynolds woke me up  I dreamt he was a cop & he was trying to arrest me. I have no idea why & I didn't eat anything unusual before I went to bed. it was a weird dream and it woke me up 2 hours before my alarm was set to go off so I went back to bed & then was properly woken by alarm clock

ewww :P Brendan?


no.  new, really weird alarm clock. ;D

I throw them in the dryer with a couple of tennis balls....I do the same to our down comforter ;)

The sound of someone rushing around.

First, hubby groaning in pain  :\'( ( (about 3 a.m.), then a full bladder (about 5:30) and finally hubby getting up.




Cat

The telephone ringing.

The same noises I heard yesterday morning.

A bad dream that seemed to keep repeatiing and repeating and repeating until I told myself "This is just a dream, come on, just wake up already!!"  ;D

The urge to go to the toilet, that will teach me to drink a big glass of water before bedtime.  ::)

my alarm clock, then my alarm clock, then my alarm clock, and finally, my alarm clock...

my alarm clock, then my alarm clock, then my alarm clock, and finally, my alarm clock...



Sounds like my typical weekday morning  ;D

Erin called.

It had to be one of the many songs they overplay on the radio.  I cant remember which one because I was half asleep.

Sounds like my typical weekday morning  ;D
You too?  My snooze button gets a SERIOUS workout every morning ;D

The people either downstairs or upstairs hammering and drilling something.  I'll drill some holes in their flippin' heads >:( ;D

First the cat. Then some truck outside. And finally, some truck outside-I figured I couldn't fight it so I got up.

Because I found out that the snooze on my last alarm clock had a shelf life (after so many presses it wouldn't go off anymore), I asked for a dual alarm clock for Christmas.  I set one alarm for about an hour before I have to get up and the 2nd for 30 mins after that.  Then I make myself wake up to reset it after that so that I can wake up slowly but not oversleep if I do happen to go back to sleep.  Sounds stupid, but it's what works for me and I end up either getting up on time or just a few minutes late which isn't that big a deal.

The F-ing phone again!!!  Why?  Why must the phone only ring while you are sleeping.  I was so tempted to get up and yank the damn thing out of the wall.  Rigoddamndiculous!

Best thing is just use a cell phone, no land line cept for the dsl. Cell phones can be thrown across the room.  ;D

It's cheaper to throw the cordless. ;D  Besides, we need the phone line for the TiVo and plus, I don't want my mother calling me on my cell and using up all my minutes. ::)  I should just keep the ringer off.  It's impossible to turn it down.

It wouldnt' make any sense to ring while you were awake.

The sudden need to leave my bed.

The thought of my Saturday newspaper,  which hasn't arrived yet  :(

^There it is now!  :)

Still waiting for my paper to arrive.

A cat curling up on my neck. A cat walking on my head. Then a cat curling up on my neck. Then a cat trying to get under the covers. A cat curling up on my neck, needing the back of my neck and little claws going into my neck.


Did I mention a cat curling up on my neck? (Yeah, I discovered the food dish was low  ::).)

I think it was a need to go to the bathroom. :-\\

I open my eyes and it felt as if I had enough.

The booming country music coming from next door at 5.30 am.  >:(

I put in ear plugs and got back to sleep thankfully.

Did you reply with the 1812 Overture booming out of your sound system?

A magic flying attack corgi.

The natural guilt of sleeping past 11.

Carlos did that one time. He had neighbors (when he lived in student housing at Rutgers) that would keep him up late at night with their loud music. So one day at 7:30 in the morning, he put his speakers facing outside the windows and turned on the 1812 Overture and cranked the volume. Needless to say, he wasn't kept up with loud music after that.  ;D ;D ;D ;D

The cat once again. After a while, she finally decided to go back to sleep so I did, too.

Cat

Not me, thank you. I'm a dog person. :)

Anyway, my clock radio woke me up at 5:40 this morning.

A friend did that to their neighbor, but they did it with "Ride of the Valkyries" or something like that (whatever song it is in Apocalypse Now) ;D

Hubby woke me up today because I turned the alarm off ;)

the telephone, a call to see if I was coming in to work today or not.  NOT!

It was used in Apocalypse Now.

The sound of something dropping on the floor.
