Unsteady clock

A figure of speech to describe sleep deprivation in the sense that a person cannot tell what time of day it is as soon as they wake up.

For an example, someone may wake up at 6:00 in the evening after sleeping all day, then they might believe it's 6:00 in the morning instead, because it's dark outside, and they must have slept for so long that their mind had went blank and forgot about the time of day.
Your sleeping habits are like an unsteady clock! Quit staying up so late, and you won't sleep all day on the next day!

Alarm Clock Pizza

When you get really drunk and order a pizza online after the store has closed. You forget that you ordered a pizza because you were drunk and there is a pizza in the stores queue in the morning. They proceed to deliver the pizza when they reopen in the morning. You hear a knock on your door while you are sleeping and in the doorway stands the pizza man who just served as your alarm clock.
**Knock Knock**
Ben (answers door): Damnit Blake! did you order a pizza last night?
Blake: I don't think so, we were pretty drunk though let me check my app.
Blake: Ah shit, looks like I ordered a pizza at 3:30am last night.
Ben: Classic, another alarm clock pizza.
