"Good Morning Vietnam!" - Morning Rituals

Recommended Posts

A funny thought popped into my early this morning: what do people like to do in the morning when they get up after a good night's rest? Do you like to get up bright and eary before the rooster crows? Do you get up every morning and have a "ritual" you just have to do before anything else? Is the first thing you do is to power up your PC and check your emails before you gotta go to work (that sometimes stressful and godforsaken turdwad of a job that actually does pay the bills and rent)? Or do you just lay there and take the time to think about how you'd like your day to turn out, a rather "take-it-one-day-at-a-time" sorta thing?

 

Of course, there are probably those of you that get up late in the afternoon (or at night, if you're a night-owl or vampire :ohmy: ). And then there's those of you that probably woke up and felt like a train ran over you because had a crappy sleep (possibly from a late, late night of hard partying, binge drinking, and perhaps TOO MUCH S-E-X :P ! You probably also woke up with a 40 oz. flu to top off how sh*tty your day will most likely end up *LOL* ;D ). And of course I can't forget to mention those few poor sods who can't sleep at all, and probably need to take a horse tranquilizer in order to sleep at all :ohmy: . I'm refering to the insomniacs (poor bast*rds - I have pity for you poor souls :P ).

 

Anyway, what I usually do when I get up (and that's if I wake up on the "right" side of the bed, no pun intended :D ) is fix my bed (been doin' it ever since I could walk and talk trash ;D ). I'll go fix myself a bowl of Cheerios (or Life, or Special K, or Corn Pops, or Frosted Flakes, or any cereal we got on hand...), then I do my "thang" in the bathroom (sh*t, shower, sometimes shave, as my facial hair grows out about once every 8 or 9 days, brush my teef, cuz I don't want the girlies to think I like eating sh*t sammichs for breakfast :D , etc). I rinse out my hair with just plain water and comb it through so it looks decent enough to walk around in public without someone thinking I just got outta bed. Then I go about my buusiness as usual (hang out here on the forums, play games, watch TV, surf the web for por... OH! :blush: Uh, I mean, uh, "interesting" websites *wink wink* ;) . You know, typical things an unemployed guy would do :happy: .

 

Anway, feel free to enlighten the community with your "morning rituals" that I know almost everyone has. ;)

Here's how it goes with me:

 

6:30 AM

 

Alarm goes off. Jump the 4 foot fall off my bed and put on snooze whilst still asleep. (I'm trying to do this athletic feat in less than three seconds from when I wake up).

 

6:35 AM

 

See above

 

640 AM

 

See above.

 

6:45 AM

 

See above.

 

6:50 AM

 

See above, but this time turning off alarm instead of putting on snooze.

 

7:00 AM

 

Suddenly wake up remembering I have school and my alarm is off.

 

7:10 AM

 

Wake up again and get dressed.

 

7:20 AM

 

Breakfast.

 

7:30-50 AM

 

Don't ask, I'm too tired to remember.

 

7:51 AM

 

Go to room, do hair. (If you had hair like mine you'd understand)

 

7:50 something AM

 

Smother hair in chemicals.

 

7:50 something AM and one minute

 

Pack bag. By this time whole family shouting at me to leave.

 

8:00 AM

 

Ready to leave. Whole family isn't, talking about god knows what.

 

8:01 AM

 

In car, somebody forgets something.

 

8:02 AM

 

Car leaves. Realize I forgot something.

 

THE END

My morning is pretty simple:

 

about 6:21 (my alarm clock is never right): alarm goes off --> snooze

 

about 6:25: snooze

 

about 6:29: turn alarm off and wake up

 

about 6:30: dig through a large stack of clothes to find something that doesn't smell too dirty

 

about 6:34: slowly crawl down stairs to eat a bowl of cereal (half the time I don't know what it is :P)

 

about 6:42: brush teeth (unless my sister's in the bathroom :dry: )

 

from 6:43-6:50: unaccounted time, mostly spent half asleep on the couch

 

6:50: watch alarm goes off --> turn it off and run walk down my quarter mile long driveway to the bus.

 

about 7:00: bus finally arives

 

about 7:27: arrive at school and promply fall back to sleep

Not so easy. I wake up when it first gets bright. This depends on time of year and weather. In summer any time after 4.30 am and occasionally earlier. In winter after 9 if it's really bad. I don't eat breakfast. So it's ablutions (any that do not involve a mirror), coffee - two cups before I can face reality (then I look in the mirror). After that I tend to order my day rather than my morning. I like to spend 1 hour looking at my favoured websites, including this, and reading any emails I may have. I am a writer so I try to do 2-3 hours creative writing. This can be my fantasy novel, a play or sketch, dialogue for an Oblivion mod etc. I also like to spend time reading and amending anything I have done and typing it all up as I work initially in long hand. Somewhere in this but not necessarily before 12 I try to remember to eat. Other necessities such as cleaning my flat, buying food, paying bills etc. must be slotted in as and when I remember.

 

Things I never do in the morning include watch tv, visit friends or make telephone calls.
