Vacation Disparity

I’m suffering from vacation disparity.

Wifey is a teacher.

Teachers start Christmas vacation today.

O-Ring salesmen do not.

And this makes it difficult to get out of bed.

Poor me.

This album always does the trick:

Sunday Nap

I had a dream today.

I lived in London, worked at a music store, was starting a band, that also happened to be a firm.

It was beautiful.  Cheers mates!

iPhone Trick

I discovered a new trick on the iPhone the other day.

I love listening to music as I fall asleep. Growing up I always used a radio with a “sleep” function on it. 20 minutes of PFR and I was out!

So… Yesterday I was excited to find out that the iPhone has a “sleep” setting!

Here’s how it works:

1) On the iPod: Start your music of choice. I suggest Coldplay’s “Parachutes”, Nada Surf’s “Let Go”, or anything by Christopher O’Reilly.

2) On the homescreen: click the clock app and open the timer.

3) In timer: set the amount of time you would like to fall asleep in (I’m usually good for 15-20 min)

4) In timer: under “when timer ends” select “sleep iPod.”

5) Hit start.

6) Sleep!

Let me know if you have any other sleeping music to suggest!
