I have an obsession on keeping the exact time. Before discovering
www.time.gov I used to call the local time and weather and set every timepiece in the house to the time I’d get over the phone. What I have done in the past was a bit unique. If I had to be up at 6am, instead of agonizing over every last minute, I would have my girlfriend set the alarm clock to a time between 5:50 and 6:05. Something about the randomness that lead me to stressing out less about exactly what time I was to get up. Strange.
