I usually set the timer on 6:35, 7:16, 7:18, 7:20 AM. on 6:35 my brain gets the signal that you need to wake up but is automatically ignored. On 7:16 my brain and body start a fight my brain says wake up, my body goes shut up its warm in bed, on 7:18 my body convinces my brain to start wishing it rains (only works in winter), on 7:20 my brain has had enough and automatically auto pilots my body out of bed and runs GetToWork();. The thing is the two minute interval does not feel like two minutes? It seems that minutes in the morning feel short because the human brain didn't register yet.
I get up when my wife kicks me out of bed. Seriously! I do not hear alarms, so I sleep on until I get an elbow in the ribs from Mrs Dalek. Then there is the trudge to the bathroom, kitchen and work. (Usually in that order!)

Two minutes is damn short in anyone's book, brain or body, regardless of environment or time.

Alarm is set for 6:25, when I awake and listen to the sports and news on the Beeb Beeb Ceeb. Kitchen and power up the ol' coffee engine. Whilst that is getting up ahead of steam, I make Mrs Wife and the Ickles their breakfast. Pull off my brew and finally open my eyes fully. After a few minutes of swearing and cursing I dress and eat before departing for work at 7:30. That's the theory.
Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done.

It would seem like forever in freefall!

And who decided that 9 Minutes is a snooze? I want an alarm clock that gives a 20 minute snooze!

I think that I've got some kind of naturally occurring coffee hormone. I get up at 6AM every school morning, without feeling tired. If this hormone does exist, it must react badly to normal coffee. I tasted it a little while ago, and didn't really like it.

You want a Sony Dream Machine. Each tap of the snooze button is 8 minutes (I guess the closest they can get to 1/8th of an hour?), so if you double-tap (my standard), you get a 16 minute snooze. Triple tap, you get a 24 minute snooze, so on up to an hour. Also, it's got a daylight savings button. When the clocks go back, I simply take turn off daylight savings, and it takes the time back an hour. I hope this clock never breaks. It's the best I've ever owned.
