Description
Some people act differently before they are fully awake. Others hop out of bed and they can extol the benefits of, oh, I don't know, a four door sedan with video screens for the kids. The second type, the sleepy-head, cannot remember where they put their left arm. The left arm is very important because it may have a watch and the time is very important as they will have only one question: how much longer can I sleep?If the second type of person does not wish to wear a watch they have the alternative of an alarm clock; sometimes three alarm clocks with light-up numbers loud buzzing alarms. The alarms are built so loud they can wake the entire household. If they do not live in a house, but rather an apartment building, they may find themselves apologizing to the residents of neighboring apartments. If these neighbors have children or a high-strung dog then over-sleeping will be cut short by barking, crying or both.
If the sleeper is fortunate they can afford an alarm clock which plays compact discs rather than the harsh buzz of cheap alarm clocks. Most people prefer to wake to their favorite song rather than the neighbor barking at a howling dog.
A thoughtful lover has always been the most effective method of waking a sleepy-head. This readily wakened partner has greater empathy than a music playing alarm clock and certainly they would not wake anyone with harsh buzzing. Since they are made of flesh, with billions of nerve cells, they do not scream in a sleeping person's ear lest they receive a "snooze button slap." Alarm clocks, made of plastic and circuitry, are particularly adept at accepting this treatment over and over. A tender partner will quickly invent more creative and careful ways of waking their lover.
Once awake, that is to say, no longer in bed, the sleepy-head will exhibit some characteristics of one who is still asleep: words are slurred, coordination is pitiable and conversation is unintelligible and rarely remembered. Some may attempt to involve themselves in otherwise ordinary activities: such as cooking, love making or going to work. Their lack of coordination and attention can lead to situations which result in apologies to lovers, coworkers, children, pets and neighbors.
A lack of coordination mixed with a house filled with hard surfaces and unpadded corners can lead to unexpected bruising or wounding. The only benefits to these accidents are the sudden alertness and the disappearance of their sleep-like state.
Generally people who have trouble waking will employ a ritual to help their mind reach a functioning state. These rituals have much more variety than the common symptoms seen in their behaviors. They may include ingestion of food or drink; particularly coffee. Others need to bathe; some with water which is only few degrees from becoming ice. Some find that the only way to wake up is orgasm. In these cases a lover can be helpful and the situation is mutually beneficial. If no partner is present self gratification methods are employed - often clumsily.
Once free of their morning stupor these people can function as well as anyone for the next sixteen hours. They usually cannot be told apart from anyone else. They do not carry any distinguishing marks, unless they are wearing a bathrobe and sporting matted hair on the subway or bus.
