Mia's Morning Ritual

Every morning around the same time, usually after my first alarm goes off my cat, Mia does the same thing. I like to set my alarm twice, once about 30 to 40 minutes before I'm actually getting up. That 7 minute snooze has never worked for me. Anyhow, these last few weeks Mia has been jumping up onto the night stand and she'll stand there staring down at me. Then she'll start picking at my hair. I'll knock her down 10 times in a row, but she just keeps jumping back up and doing it again. It's almost like she knows that I'm planning on getting up soon. She's my furry alarm clock. It's funny, but so annoying if I'm really not ready to get up yet.
