    My wife will sometimes say she’s setting a “mental alarm” when she’d like to get up at a certain time but it’s not actually critical to be awake then and she tends to wake up right around then. There are plenty of times she wakes up one minute before her real alarm, too.

      See, I can do this, and often do. I wake up at 0730 naturally and it’s a great feeling when I wake up a couple of mins before the alarm. But I do set an alarm - because I’d never, ever bank on it.

      Sod’s Law I’d sleep in when I need to catch a flight.

      Your wife’s probably a witch bro. Tomorrow she’ll say she regularly gets a good night’s sleep. Witches man, I’m telling you.

      Does she sleep a consistent schedule & get enough sleep, or is she able to do this despite waking up after 5 hours of sleep at a time that’s 4 hours earlier when working than on weekends?
