Then the alarm went off, and I didn't finish my dream. Sometimes I'd like to shoot the guy who came up with the idea of clocks designed to wake us up too dang early.

Yeah, I agree. It seems that often when I'm having an interesting dream, the alarm clock wakes me up. If you think about it, getting up every morning by the sound of the alarm clock is not very natural. It's so artificial -- the natural thing would be to sleep until you wake up by yourself each morning. Particularly in the winter when it's always dark when the alarm goes off, I find it difficult to get out of bed: my mind tells me that it's still night time because the sun hasn't come up.

Tell me about it. I have to get up at 4:30am, so I can do the 3 s's (sh$t, shower & shave) so I can take my wife to work by 5:50 or so. Then on Saturday, I have to get up at 5:30 to get to my part-time job by 7:00. And Sunday, the only day I'm not working (right now, although that may have to change in the future), my 3 year old boy will wake us up by 7:30 at the latest. So I don't get much sleep, let alone time to dream. That's why I hate it when I get interrupted in a really good dream.
