I usually wake up at 5:45, after one hit of the snooze button. Then, I shuffle into the bathroom. I multi-task by brushing my teeth in the shower. When I get out, I yell at the husband to wake up. I moisturize my face and half-heartedly blow-dry my hair. I get dressed and am downstairs by 6:00. I walk and feed the dog and cat (well, I don't walk the cat). I throw on some blush and mascara, check my email and goof off on the internet for half an hour. I run out the door like a crazy person at 6:30 and speed to the train station. Finally, I get to Manhattan around 8:15, get some coffee and arrive at the office around 8:30. Fascinating, hmm?

::arches back and hisses::

Mornings are not kind to me.

Alarm first goes off at 5:51 a.m. I hit the snooze about 3 times before I'm able to Rise around 6:20 or so. (I even have a back-up alarm clock that I set in case I hit the off switch rather than the snooze...it's happened more than once.) I stumble out of bed and, depending on how ravenous the cats are, I can either indulge myself with a bathroom run (bathroom's right across from the bedroom) or plod down the hallway to fill up the cats' trough with food (whilst doing the Pee Dance). After my morning flush, I make my way to the living room and flop down in my chair where I try for the next 10 minutes or so to wake up. I give myself about 5 minutes to play with my mate's feet (don't ask) before jumping in the shower which, if I'm lucky, I can finish in about 20 minutes or so. Quick dab of war paint, quick change artist into something that looks semi-decent, a quick jiggle of cat bellies, and with any luck I'll be out the door by 7:45 a.m. to get to work by 8. Yes, a 15 minute commute...aaahhh.

i stumble outta bed about 5:45 if i'm being good, knowing i have to be at the bus stop at 6:30, and begin my 2.5 to 3 hour commute into work. It's all become so automatic i don't think i wake up until i'm almost at the office..lol. The receptionist usually has the coffee perked by the time i arrive, so i grab a bagel or a doughnut to eat while i hide in my office for a while..lol.

Speaking of morning, just about time for me to hit the sack..take care y'all..

cheers

Weekdays, My Joe wakes me up at 6:45am. I try to bury myself under the covers, but he won't let me!! I get up and he starts my tea. I make breakfast for the kid and wait for her to get out the door. I check my e-mails and then change into my work-out clothes. We workout for about an hour, come back and shower, and then the day begins with whatever we have going on.

Weekends, we wake-up together and if we're lucky we linger in bed a very long time having lots of mushy, horny fun.

Woke up at 6.30am in Annemeke's bed and it took me about 5 minutes to figure out where I was. Annemeke is still in the land of Nod so I got up and made a cup of tea forgetting I was displaying myself to the neighbours from her kitchen but the neighbours don't seem to be up. Put the radio on, BBC 2 can still be received from here, my freedom doesn't seem to have cost some innocent third world villager their life today but Blair's government seem to inadvertently forgot to deport over 1000 released prisoners. Amongst them a few murders and several rapist, one that went on to rape a woman and a six year old child. Arsenal has won through to the European Champions Cup, it's going to be a bad day. Rolled a joint, looked at it and put it away, I've got to see a client today and need my faculties. Got dressed and went to sit out on the balcony, its mild but a miserable grey day and drank my tea and had a smoke while waiting for Annemeke to wake up.

5:00 a.m., son comes into room, slips in bed next to me. 5:30 a.m., alarm goes off and I get up to head for the bathroom. Come back, wake son up to get ready for school. Read the boards and email while he's dressing. 5:45 make his breakfast. Come back to 'puter and do cake stuff or whatever I have going. Head out the door to wait on the bus at 6:20. 6:35, bus comes. I come back inside and put in the contacts, brush teeth and get in shower. Get out, check to make sure daughter is up, dress, makeup, hair and out the door by 7:30 or so.
