My morning is meticulously planned so that I know what I need to be doing at every particular moment. At 6:45, I am out of the shower and starting to put on makeup Oh, it is 7:05? I should be finished drying my hair and starting to straighten. It is now, 7:20 I should be dressed, getting my breakfast ready and start making my lunch while eating. 7:30 it is time to brush teeth, get all my stuff together, and spray perfume and lotion right before heading out the door at precisely 7:39. My mornings are probably the most time managed part of my life. I am usually spontaneous and go with the flow, but not with my mornings, oh no, siree.The other day, a good friend suggested that I try pushing the snooze button just once to see how I like it. For days, I have been contemplating whether or not I would hit that blasted button. Last night, I decided that today would be the day. I set my alarm for nine minutes prior to my scheduled wake up time (so that it wouldn't set me nine minutes behind schedule), and I went to bed. This morning the alarm rang, I jumped out of bed and then I realized that today was the day. I got back in bed and layed there. I just closed my eyes and tried to fall back asleep. Nothing. The minutes ticked by, each feeling like an eternity. Finally, the alarm rang its awful noise and I happily got out of bed. This morning I lost out on 9 minutes of precious sleep all because of the dumb snooze button. Never Again. Never Again

Ok the point of the snooze button is for people that are ALWAYS tired when they first hear their alarm. You hit the snooze to slowly awaken you each time until you finally can just pop out of bed without any regrets! If you always wake up and jump right out of bed then the snooze button isn't for you. I'm glad you gave it a try though, but I fear your strong use of words in your "Never again" dedication. Maybe once more? On a morning that you plan on being really tired.
