I was up at 7. Maybe slightly under slept, but since I woke up on my own I'll deal.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I was up by 7, and am being kept alert-ish by cold medicine.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I used to be able to sleep in until 9 or 10--or I had krav to get to. I hate waking up this early with nothing specific to do. My crap for today can happen at any time.

Wait the internet doesn't isolate people!
I wonder if I can convince anyone that tries to argue with me about this...It has stats!

Yeah, for me, it makes me waste even more time. A couple of hours sitting around watching TV can easily turn into many hours! But if I can get up and get moving, it's better.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Much to my amazement, despite the cats I woke 7-ish which was perfect for getting kempt by the time I had to leave for school -- and the door was open all night. I sense a conspiracy on their part to lull me into complacency... or maybe I just slept heavily.
Nah.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Teppy, have you looked at this one [link]? Since you have Fridays off, you'd probably prefer a 7-day thermostat. Honeywell has good ratings and a battery backup. You might see if he wants to give you installation too. It's low voltage wiring, so it's not dangerous, but sometimes it can be a pain.
That one, or the 5-1-1 Honeywell thermostat, were the 2 that seemed the best.
As for installation, The Boy lives for DIY shit.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Since there is no chance in hell that I get the tv on sat or sun mornings, if I do get up earlyish, I usually manage to get laundry or dishes done.

I overslept too! After being up at 4:30 to water and feed the boy, I ended up sneaking back into bed at around 6:00 and didn't get up until 8:00. BLISS.

The other problem with getting up early is that I just had second breakfast.
