12:51 PM: Damnit. I’m not sure why it’s taken me so many decades to figure out that waking up to an alarm that does not violently jar me from slumber is a lot less bad. Yesterday, I awoke to music from Deamon Souls. Unfortunately, I forgot to enable the alarm last night, so even though I went to bed around 1 am I did not wake up until noon. Or, rather, I’d woken up multiple times with a mild urge to urinate, but would stubbornly go back to sleep, waiting for the alarm.
