Alright, what is it about waking up at 5am that never gets better? No matter how much sleep you've gotten the night before, all you want to do when that alarm goes off is just curl up and go back to sleep. And it seems like no matter how many days in a row you have to do it, it never gets easier. It's like the worst time to wake up in the history of EVER.

Why am I waking up at 5am, you ask, if I hate it so much? Well, that would be because DBF has friggin' training. Honestly though, it wouldn't be so bad except that for some weird reason he likes to get up before he actually has to and I have to make sure that he gets up and doesn't just fall back to sleep again. He likes to wake up at least an hour before he has to leave to be anywhere. And no, he doesn't use that time to get ready or anything. He just SITS there and watches YouTube videos or plays a couple of rounds in Battle Field 3. I just don't get that.

Me, on the other hand, I always get up with just enough time to get ready and get out the door. For me that's about half an hour. But if we're going anywhere together I'm always up that extra half an hour, sometimes more. He sleeps like a rock which means I have to be awake for at least 5 minutes to wake him up, which in turn makes me far too awake to go back to sleep for a little bit.

I treasure my sleep. I need lots of it and I'll take as much as I can get. Plus, I don't sleep nearly as hard as DBF. I used to when I was a kid but then again most kids sleep like that. But once I left my teenage years behind I just slept more and more lightly. So here we are now with me waking up for some reason or another every few hours. And of course once I wake up I have to pee.

I just want to enjoy my sleep now while I can get it. Once we decide to have kids in a few years I'm pretty sure I'll never sleep again. They may be cute but they are little, tiny sleep suckers.

Now that I've sat here typing and otherwise barely moving, maybe just maybe, I can go back to bed and enjoy some of that wonderful, peaceful stuff they call sleep. If the upstairs neighbors will refrain from doing what sounds like moving very large fruniture.

Enjoy your day everyone!
