I’m proud of you. Proud that you’ve found a reason to get up in the morning. We all need a reason open our eyes, cram our feet into our pink bunny slippers, and stumble our way to the coffee pot.
Just in case your new reason for getting out of bed in the morning fizzles out, here are some other ideas that might help you face the glare of a new day with poise, grace, and a sprinkling of vengeance (’cause I have a feeling that’s how you roll).
*Bacon ice cream exists. It’s a real thing. Really, I could end the list here, couldn’t I?
*Some people say it’s easier to get out of bed in the morning if you place your alarm clock across the room. Screw that. I say, paint a target on the wall across the room, and when your alarm clock goes off in the morning, hurl The Evil Harbinger of the New Day at the target. You won’t be able to help but get out of bed to have a look at how good your aim was. Trust me. And the day that you finally hit the bull’s eye? That, my friend, will be a Red Letter Day.
*If you don’t get out of bed, the dog will pee on the carpet. This isn’t a glamorous reason to face the day, but it’s a Good Hardy Practical one. Sometimes that’s all a person needs.
*You know all the lyrics to Pat Benetar’s Hit Me With Your Best Shot. The world needs you.
*You don’t know all the lyrics to Pat Benetar’s Hit Me With Your Best Shot. Learning them should be your next priority in life. We’re talking prime karaoke mic time here, friend.
*Two words: Hemsworth Brothers. Almost as good as bacon ice cream.
*Somebody, somewhere has made a new Chuck Norris joke. And you don’t not get out of bed for new Chuck Norris jokes.
*Bacon ice cream. It bears repeating.
I hope that if your new reason for getting up in the morning fails you, these secondary ideas serve you well.
Hugs-n-kisses,

p.s. I really, really hope that it’s not my wall you’re planning on humiliating-post-bombing.

ROLFMAO!!!!!!!! Stellar!!!!!
All fahhhbulous reasons to drag one’s sorry ass from the sheets. My fav – firing the alarm across the room and getting up to see how your target practice went. LOL!!!
Myndi you have too many tags so you aren’t showing up in the WordPress reader. They allow a max of 15 in combo of categories and tags or you get thrown out.
Dillon, Colorado just had Baconfest! Too funny! I had to explain to my hubby that bacon is “hot” these days. 🙂
I had no idea, thanks! Whittled the list down. 😀

LOL- so funny! And yes some days getting out of bed requires a lot more motivation then others. Thankfully I get shirtlessdaily in my email every morning- it inspires me.
Awesomesauce!
Isn’t it crazy, the search terms people find us with? WTC? What’s the connection? Anyway, I’d better get out of bed so the dog doesn’t pee on my carpet.
Oh wow…Hemsworth brothers….*slurp*
That’s reason enough for me!
ROTFL! My dog HEARTS bacon ice cream…unbelievable! urk…
Oh my goodness…if I gave my dog bacon ice-cream, the results would be explosive. In an ugly, smelly way. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by Amy! *grins*
Set your alarm for 4:45 like I do. At that hour, you’re too confused to argue. You just get up.
This made me LAUGH OUT LOUD. Maybe I’ll try it.
*squinches nose at thought*
No, probably won’t. 🙂
Am I the only one who LIKES getting up in the morning? 5am, baby. Or earlier if I’m motivated. Early morning is my favorite time of day ~ it’s so quiet and even the dogs will let me be.
Although, you present many fine reasons for getting up if one is not so inclined. I kind of like the Hemsworth brothers. Okay, I really, really like them. And of course, Cat Norris. Pat Benatar rocks. I met her once ~ she’s about as nice as nice gets. And tiny. Like, I thought my boobs would knock her out if I turned to the side too quickly.
JUST. SNORTED. COFFEE. OUT. MY. NOSE-HOLES.
Poor tiny little Pat.
Kids are the best reason in the world to get up. And if you don’t, they come to the bed and jump all over you 😛 Or scream until you come get them. But Hemsworth brothers are a good extra reason. And ice cream. But chocolate ice cream for me please.
Funny stuff! Bacon ice cream. Who knew? I get up in the morning because otherwise my cat paws me to death reminding me to feed him. He’s so cute and annoying all at the same time.
LOL. We’re dog-sitting a little white yippy thing that’s kindof the same way. 🙂
