I am not normally a fan of the snooze button.

That’s not exactly true.  I set two alarms instead of using a snooze button.  One for 5:30am and one for 5:50am.  Nothing in between.  If I don’t get up at 5:30 then I sleep until 5:50.  And I never get up at 5:30.  But that’s a sneaky 20 minutes. I use it to trick my brain into thinking every weekday I’m going to be up at 5:30, and those 20 minutes are special and it only gets them on occasion.

This morning I tried to add another ten minutes into the situation.  When the second alarm went off at 5:50am I set an alarm for 6:00 so I could sleep a little longer.  My brain apparently didn’t appreciate this attempt at more sleep.  I ended up laying awake for 7 minutes until I decided to just get out of bed.

I think my brain is in on the trick of setting two alarms.
