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!

Doomsday Clock

A bunch of eggheads got together and decided this whole humanity thing wasn't really working out, and that there should be a definitive scale available for people to plan ahead for their weekend. Measured in "minutes to midnight", it aims to provide a realistic expectation of the likelihood of having to go that social engagement you've been dreading, with any mention of "seconds to midnight" providing a valid excuse for having one more drink, since your chances of living to experience the hangover are drastically reduced.
According to the Doomsday Clock, it is now 30 seconds to Midnight
