So I know this might sound a bit silly, but why can't I control my body
No, really! Today I knew I had to wake up at 9:30 and because I was sick the last couple of days, I had been sleeping in rather late. So I went to bed at around 1:30 and couldn't get to sleep. Then came 2:00...2:30...3:00am!
It got me thinking... why do we have so little control over things like this? I mean, I know I was going to get up at 9:30 come hell or high water because of my alarms, but my body didn't give a crap! It was like "screw you penguin, I am not going to sleep until 3:30am and screw you over with 6 hours of sleep so you feel like crap in the morning". And don't tell me "it's natural"! What's the dealio?
SERIOUS BUSINESS!
