Did you know that the first day of Fall this year was September 22? As we move further and further into the season and closer to winter, I am always surprised and a bit dismayed that I am now forced to get up in the dark. There is nothing I hate more. When I lived in Idaho and Washington, I was convinced I had Seasonal Affect Disorder. The constant darkness and the subsequent depression that went with it was pretty miserable. Here in sunny so-cal there's plenty of sunshine to go around, if you just wait a little longer in the day. But in the mornings? Yeah man, getting up the in dark just stinks.
The premise is simple. At your chosen wake-up time it starts to gradually get brighter and brighter mimicking the rising sun. Your body doesn't know the difference and what a much better way to wake up than startled by my alarm in the pitch black. They even tested it to see if they could convince a rooster to crow well before the sun came up. The video is pretty entertaining!
