Well, that's different.

Having gone to bed at midnight, and change, I set the alarm for 9:00.  Even then I was hoping I would wake at that alarm.  I must have consumed more coffee than usual, as I woke two previous times to use the restroom.  That didn't effect sleep, or when I went to sleep.  That was based on when I completed some tasks, and to a degree, those tasks were based on how long the dryer took, and needing a break between this and that.  I woke, just a bit ago, at 7:00, almost exactly.

I won't say that I am comfortably awake.  And yet I have a feeling that if I slept to the alarm, I might not wake well.  I reset the dishes for another wash, actually.  I didn't like the feel of them after the wash last night.  The cutting board, I think, introduced a bunch of fat from the corned beef au jus.  I rinsed it well in very hot water before adding to the wash water, but... that stuff is pretty rich.  I am about to start a load of laundry, being that it is early enough, I think, to see that through.

I did wash the dishes, as I suggested, last night.  And I got all of the laundry I dried, and some other that had been left dry, arranged and put up.  Not too bad, really.  I may go in and sleep a little longer, with those two things started.  I won't feel so bad if I overshoot a bit, and I will already have a start to the morning going when I wake.  Yeah, a little more sleep?  I don't know...  After I set the laundry I will consider it.  I hate decisions when I'm not quite awake enough to make them well.  Later.
