More depressing? How about... Equally depressing?

I think you're right...I'd never be able to do that. If it's not light outside, then my body revolts and keeps me from waking/getting up.

That must suck. I find it easier to get up when it's still dark. When it's light outside, I automatically think that I've over slept and freak out. I prefer it dark first thing.

Yeah, that's not a good way to wake up either. Freaked out, and in a a panic. I saw these alarm clocks advertised that wake you with soft illuminating light. It's supposed to be a gentle way to be awakened. I guess the heavy rock music that blasts from my alarm clock every morning could be causing me undo stress...Nah.

I've tried a "Zen" alarm clock. It beings you gently awake, in stages. I found it annoying. Let's just jump start it and get the show on the road.
I'm with you...I need sunlight to wake up. If it's dark out, I'm not budging from my comfy bed.

My alarm clock has a "progressive" buzzer. It's the same annoying "bzzz bzzz" but starts softly, then every 2 seconds goes up one notch in volume. Takes about 10-15 seconds to get all the way up. Gives me a chance to hit the snooze and turn it off before I want to channel the entirety of my life energy into its catastrophic, staggering, complete, magnificent destruction.

It ends up being dark in the morning anyways. The time changes do suck ass, I forgot to change my clock on the wall here and at 1:00 I thought holy s***, the day was going by fast. But it's not.

Why is it when you hit the snooze it's the fastest 5 or 10 minutes EVER?

Ok, if you hate the sound of an alarm as much as I do, there is an upside to the time change--- I wake up an hour earlier than I need or want to without the aid of an alarm. I do not like being awake at 7am, but hey at least I didn't have to hear the alarm. You're right Jon. The sound of the alram does create a need to "channel the entirety of my life energy into its catastrophic, staggering, complete, magnificent destruction." Great visual!

I hate it when it gets dark a little after five pm. That just really sucks. When it gets dark I think it's time to go to bed.

I know. It wacks me all out. I want to eat dinner earlier because it's dark earlier which makes me want to go to sleep earlier which in turn makes me wake up earlier. ARRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHH! I'm developing an elderly person's schedule!
