I suggest a new strategy R2 - let the Wookiee win

12 May 2005

I suggest a new strategy for getting to work on time. I like to call it 'getting up early'.
Sounds very revolutionary, doesn't it?

In the past I have chosen to operate under the 'getting up late' philosophy, however this caused obvious problems. In spite of those obvious problems, I managed to continue in said mode throughout school and university. While at school I was aided in my getting up by the paternal and maternal familiar. After the paradigm shifting relocation to Big W (the college formally known as Warrane), I was assisted three times a week in arising from a horizontal position by a knock on the door and a 'Good morning, cleaning' or 'Good morning, housekeeping' coming from the mouth of Luis, numerary extraordinaire (ahh, good times).

However, without such assistance, I have always had trouble removing myself from slumber.
I've even tried putting the alarm clock across the room so that I have to get out of bed to turn it off. But then I just get up, turn it off, and get back into bed. The Hardies will testify to my ability to continue sleeping in the face of imminent midday!

Recently, I have modified my strategy to the hugely insightful 'getting up on time'. This has worked quite well - until today. When State Transit decide to run buses a few minutes earlier than normal, the timing breaks down. Oh...

So, a new strategy - getting up early. There you have it - good intentions. Now for the execution...
