I set my cell phone to vibrate and ring and put it on my hardwood floor on the other side of my room under my dresser. There is no way a person can sleep with that buzzing/ringing.

No, this isn't related to my ex. If it was I'd be banned, remember? I want to start working out in the mornings.

I wonder if there's a way to write a shell script to call my phone...

Put it on the other side of the room. Then you have to get up to turn it off.

After reading an article on "Sleep Inertia" I tried something new. I set one alarm to the radio really quiet. 5 min after that my other alarm buzzer goes off and have to go to the other side of the room to shut it off.
It seems like having the radio go off really low and wake me up makes it a lot easier to get up 5min later.

Phone call(s) could not be scheduled because there are too many phone call(s) to ***-***-****for that day. Please try a different phone number, or try again later.

OK...thanks to all my fellow ATOTers who are going to give me a headache tomorrow morning..

Just get a bunch of friends who wake up earlier than you do, to give you a ring. This works better if the caller is a girl, coz even though it's early in the morning and it's a wake up call, they will chitchat with you for 10-15 min which is enough for your brain to completely wake up.

Come on.. wheres your willpower? If you're up to hit snooze and KNOW you need to be up, why go back to sleep? Surely you're stronger than this? :)
