Snoozing On The Road

I’m officially done with the snooze alarm. This past winter I used it an average of three times per morning. When I’m jetlagged, it’s been five. That’s twenty-five minutes. Needless to say, I’ve been late a few times this winter.

I wrote the other day about how I just purchased a SAD alarm clock. Its an UV light small enough to fit in a brief case, ideal for travel. I’ve been using it for two days now; the first two days this winter I haven’t hit the snooze button and wished I had some magical power to stop time. If you’re an early riser by circumstance but not by choice, then you really only have two choices: Snooze or SAD.
