PSA #1: Fuck aloe vera. For other people with fair skin, I've discovered that baby oil does a fantastic job of turning a sunburn into a lovely tan, instead of the usual peeling mess that results from aloe vera application. Yes, it's best not to be a dumbass and get burned in the first place, but if you have, i'd recommend the oil

I wake up to NPR, which is way better than BEEP BEEP BEEP, but has the occasional incredibly disturbing side effect of George W. Bush invading my dreams...

yeah, i've always felt the radio to be just as jarring as the beep. the trick is finding a song that starts out low and slowly gets louder, it's much better, IMO

I've got my clock radio tuned to Russian talk radio, which just confuses the fuck out of me in the morning. I think it helps keep my mornings in perspective. :P

What's an alarm clock?

[1eyedkunt]

eff you, man!

[icarus88]

Aw cmon, I know that's just the sleep deprivation talking ;p

what one did you get? I have had a hard time finding one i like.

[1eyedkunt]

yeah, there seem to be quite a lot out there. i think i have this one: http://www.rpi.edu/~desimn/alarmclock/index.html

but I'm not sure I'd recommend it. For one thing it has a "recurring" setting (which i haven't yet tested to see if it works even if i close the alarm clock window) but there doesn't seem to be a way to set it to go off M-F but not Saturday and Sunday, which seems like it should be fairly simple to do.

I haven't tried any others yet.

I first tried to download this one: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/alarmclock.html
but had trouble doing so.

If your burn is mild enough to use a body oil on it, I highly recommend
