snooze

In the fierce midday heat we found most people snoozing in hammocks, or playing music on their porches.

My alarm blares its generic Apple chime, and I keep hitting snooze—only to wake up groggy, drained, and unmotivated to make the most of the dwindling daylight.

We also have the means to purchase a purebred pet from a woman who raises her cats in an immaculate home, where they take turns snoozing on a blanket in front of a fireplace.

The race has been such a snooze, Nalder said, that many California voters will “be surprised when they see the race on their ballot at all — and even more when they see it twice.”

And one more day is one more opportunity to stop Bowser from tormenting me for trying to snooze.
