The new CD player ought to make me get up early.

I'm sure it was because of the broken CD player that I've been failing to get up early these days. I cannot spend early morning withoug music! So the purchase of a new CD player was definately blameless.



However, I bought this secondhands (and lower-end model than I used to use) player almost ten days ago. Since then, I could get up early only once, today. Was it just a waste of money?
