Waking up for meals in F

This is something that happened to me this past week, and I am curious as to your thoughts/opinions/experiences on AS. I was on a SEA-BWI flight that departed about 8am in F. I had connected on a red-eye and was fast asleep by taxi. The FA had taken drink and meal orders on the ground, I hadn't pre-reserved a meal.

About an hour later, the very nice FA woke me up and let me know that she was about to serve breakfast, and that my drink was at my seat. I was shocked that she woke me as I have never had an Alaska FA do that before. I have nothing against the FA and don't want to turn this in to a FA bashing discussion, but it seems that it would have been better (I would have preferred it anyway) to let the passenger sleep. I understand that the meal may not be good in an hour or two if I woke up and wanted to still eat, but I think that's my choice if go to sleep and miss the meal time.

Would you rather be left alone or checked on if you wish to eat?
