Evil subconscious

Yup! 'Tis official! My subconscious is infinitely evil!

I have this talent right, if I really really need to get up at a certain time, I can set an internal clock. I just repeat the time in my head over and over before I go to sleep and I generally wake up in or around that time. It's very handy, doesn't always work and I use it as a backup to the good old alarm clock.

Last night, I did *not* set this internal alarm. This morning I was quite happily snoozing my alarm clock and accidentally sleeping in. However, my subconscious had other plans. Instead of me just coming fully and completely awake for no reason (that's the internal alarm clock method) my subconscious decided to shake me awake, literally! It remembered that while I was sleeping late I was becoming perilously close to missing my morning briefing, so it took matters into its own hands. I woke up because my entire body convulsed, I shook all over, leaping aboot an inch off of the bed! I wasn't having a nightmare, I don't have epilepsy, my subconscious simply decided that the best way to wake me up was to shake my entire body 'til I woke up fully...

*EVIL*

Durshka out.
