Help me get out of bed in the morning!
I really need to learn to get out of bed at six.

I am a world-class pillow-clinger. When the alarm goes off at six I say NOOOOOOO! and bang on the snooze for another hour. It hardly matters when I go to bed the night before, I do NOT want to get up in the morning. That's a shame, because the morning is my favorite part of the day...once I'm up.

Any advice? Anyone volunteer to call me at 6:00 AM and tell me to drag my lazy ass out of bed?

1. Move the alarm away from your bed
Set it to right-wing talk radio. You'll get up! ;)

3. LOL! I think I need one of those!
I'm a Class A Pillow Clinger. I HATE getting up in the morning.

Except that I might put a loaded gun in the nightstand to take the damned annoying thing out.

4. Put the alarm clock across the room...
If you have a coffee maker with a timer mode, you might consider setting it up next to the alarm clock.
