Panel 1: Mike is doing jumping jacks.
Lisa: Let’s exercise in the morning, before work. When I get home, I want to WoW. I WoW now.
Panel 2:
Mike: Good idea! Morning exercise is supposed to be better anyway.
Lisa: Early bird gets the abs!
Panel 3: Lisa is sleeping. A beeping alarm sounds.
Panel 4: Lisa hits the snooze button.
Panel 5: Lisa and Mike keep sleeping.
also, my alarm clock exactly the same at 4:30 in the morning – it’s just got one button (SNOOZE)… at any other time it’s got a dozen or so other buttons that i ignore.
oh, and that’s my workout regime too – ten reps of “snooze” pushing every morning… though it’s not doing my belly much good.
It’s Marty McFly… I guess. Not like I knew that or anything, I just looked at the other comments. ^_^;
Anyway, It’s weird, this is just like me and my boyfriend, only there are two cats in this picture instead of one. Plus, I’m always hitting the snooze button early. XD
Yeah, no. My roommate did that and she would just let it keep going since she knew it would turn off eventually on its own instead of getting out of bed to turn it off. So flipping irritating.
The trick there is a second alarm, set to a radio station that sucks. The things one learns when adjusting from night shift to morning shift and waking up late too often in a row.
I’ve tried that, for the last few years. I’ve got a rather small 10′x10′ bedroom, so there is no part of the room that I can’t reach by sticking one foot out while keeping most of my body in the bed. I’m actually pretty good at hitting the snooze within a second of it going off, but it doesn’t help that I just go right back to sleep 4, 5, sometimes even more times if I don’t just up and change the alarm to a later time.
Before we moved, my family shared an alarm clock which was just outside of my then much larger bedroom. I would get fully out of bed, walk the 15 or so feet to the alarm, hit the snooze button, and go back to bed, but I had to do this for BOTH alarms that were set. So, it’d be my alarm first at 6:50, then the first snooze 7 minutes later, then my parents’ alarm at 7, continuing on in said fashion until I got fed up getting up every three minutes.
Although not always. In college, my room mate in the dorm watched me crawl out of the top bunk, turn the alarm off, and crawl back up–all in my sleep. I finally had to move the clock every few days so I couldn’t find it without waking up.
I think I read somewhere that the whole “early morning exercise is better for you” is something of a myth. If you do exercise in the morning, your metabolism gets a wake-up call, which means you’ll probably burn more calories during the course of the day, but that’s it. If you exercise a little every day, and keep at it, it eventually doesn’t matter when you do it, since the effects will be present every day.
Mike’s way of sleep looks funny. And Lisa that’s evil what about the workout regime
The snooze button on bedside alarm clocks should be banned. Well, maybe I’ll get around to that in a few minutes, when I’m ready to…
Mike looks like he’s sleeping like Marty McFly….
Mike sleeps like Marty McFly!
*sings* That’s the power of love…
don’t need no credit card to ride this train!!
Why is Mike doing /chicken while sleeping?
Ha, I saw that coming! Not because I’ve ever done that when I should be exercising or anything…..
“I WOW NOW.” bwahahaha.

This is looking like my exercise program.
And Chloe and Bink are cute cuddled up together like that.

And that’s why I ended up keeping my alarm just beyond arm’s reach.
Yeah, no. My roommate did that and she would just let it keep going since she knew it would turn off eventually on its own instead of getting out of bed to turn it off. So flipping irritating.

yes when you have to walk to the alram it helps wake you

Happens to me every time….
why does he look like a chicken?

I’m just amazed she can drift back to sleep with Mike taking up so much space
I’m going to guess male Night Elf dance?
Those who said Marty McFly have it right!
