    LOL "Fell Asleep" more like passed the F out. I know I can sleep though anything. Fire alarm in dormitory? Check. Scud missile strikes, rocket and mortar attacks? Check. Direct fire while riding in a Helo? Check. Tornado? Check. Earthquake? Check. Now.... falling asleep? That is an issue that saddens me as sleeping is one of my favorite past times. It ranks right up there with food and driving.

    I'm a very sound sleeper. I've had alarm clocks on my phone and tablet that were air raid sirens, train whistles, annoying dubstep, and I've slept through them. But, if someone knocks on my bedroom door, or touches my foot, I'm up!

    Hmm, interesting idea. Will have to consider. I may also try alarm sounds of a baby crying, vomiting, or of other sounds. I wish I was like my Mom in the respect that a NATURE SOUNDS CD wakes her up.

    I swear if you make you alarm a baby vomiting.. That would just be the most amazing thing... Ever.


    As for me? Shit, Thunder, Earthquakes, Damn Hurricanes... Nothing wakes me up! As a matter of fact I often go to sleep with my earbuds in blasting Dubstep and high volumes...



    Gotta love Dubstep... And Steve Jablonsky!

    I just got woken up by a phone call related to my former employer. As it's been a year and a half since I worked for them, I'm tempted to call my former boss and wake him up as well.

    That's similar to what my friend's dog did once. Ran in the room at full speed, jumped from the floor to my chest, did a 360 & a burnout and took the hell off. The whole thing took at least 5 seconds. Woke me the fuck up.

    When I had a cat, she would do that. She was a small cat, but it was annoying because she would do it early in the morning when I was working a night shift. I stopped that by closing the door. I also had a dog that slept in my room for awhile that would cry and wimper until I woke up, and then she would go back to sleep. I solved that by having her sleep with my Mom, until she trained her to stop the behavior.

    Heh, that reminds me of a story.

    I gave my Mom an old alarm clock that had an old iPod/iPhone dock that was incompatible with my iPhone 5 or 5S. I also set her up with an alarm that would go off at night, and play a playlist of nature sounds and soothing music that was on her iPod or iPhone 4S when she was in bed. I went through the process of showing her how to use it and the whole nine yards.

    What I had forgotten about was two things. The iHome alarm clock, for its small size, had some nice bass speakers. The other thing was on the playlist I made for her was a track of a heavy rainstorm with loud thunder. She told me she was just about asleep when the crack of the thunder hit and the bass from it shook her bed. It was such a startle that the dogs went off barking and carrying on in their kennels. My Mom was not happy, but my Dad (bless his heart) slept through the whole thing!

    The next morning she had me remove that track off of her playlist. Apparently, it wasn't soothing for her. I had a good laugh, at a distance from her. I didn't want to get slapped upside the head!
