Thanks!  This will be some great experience for me as this will be one of the finest rigs working in the Gulf of Mexico on one of the highest profile wells!

Amazing, but that music…..jeez just a little up its own arse......

[ohighyo]

Why….can't.....i.... Sleep....past......5:30!!!  In the morning!!!!!

[CLJ]

I'm having a similar issue on my days off. When there is no alarm I wake up before when my alarm would be!!

[ohighyo]

Alarm, hah!!!  I cant remember the last time I needed an alarm clock

[Blackheart]

^ Agreed

[tatmantall]

I'm an early riser as well. No later than 4:30 every morning. It's just nice to get up before the sun when everything is still peaceful and quiet.

[zwer]

It's a rare day that I can sleep past 6, alarm or not.

Legitimately loled after I read this and watched the video.

Yeh, up until about 38 seconds I thought that G was being unduly harsh, and then…....

I feel like this would have been equally as appropriate:

Woke up this morning with the migraine from hell. Went to Target to get some Excedrin with my dog since he's been super sweet and keeping me company while I wished death upon myself

Lady Scared of Dog: Omigod, is that dog allowed in here?!?
Doug: looks up at ceiling (it was the first thing that came into my head): he's my seeing eye dog
Lady: oh

But…I continue to go with it...

Doug: Is this the reading eyeglass section?
Lady: No...it's a beautiful dog
Doug: I WOULDN'T KNOW!!! I'M BLIND!!!

You would think that I've already guaranteed my place in hell...but nooooo...

Doug: Can you do me a favor? What color is he?
Lady: Silent and embarrassed

And because I'm a total asshole...

Doug: C'mon Hex, lets go for a drive (as I'm bumping into everything possible)

PS-I didn't get my Excedrin
PPS-seeing eye dogs have special harnesses and a giant sign on them that says "Service Animal"

@DougNg:

You can actually buy those vests on amazon. They have velcro labels for pretty much every type of service animal, including "emotional support animal," K9 Unit, etc. My brother got me one for my english bulldog (with just the "service dog" label). I've only had the balls to use it once. I took him to a hardware store. My dog started rearranging the merchandise. I tried to pass it off like he was in training but I really couldn't keep a straight face.

Hilarious ng.

I've never been an early morning person till recently.

I've been getting up at 5am for a little while now, and it's quite peaceful being up that early.

I also get to take a nap sometime early or late morning depending on the day, which is also quite pleasant.

[Snowy]

I'll counter all you morning risers saying without an alarm I will likely sleep until 2-3-4pm daily.

[Chris]

I could do that, too.

Well, before I had kids, at least.  Now I don't need an alarm because they're up and screaming like hellspawn before 8 every morning.

I also would happily stay up until 2 am every day, but that's unrealistic, since I am no longer in college and have to act like a responsible adult.  Mostly.

[Snowy]

Yeah I have to make an effort to get to bed @ a reasonable time. Mind you if I do stay up, I'm basically shot for days…

[mclaincausey]

I'm a night owl and a morning person. I think the clinical term is "insomniac."
