coffee comes before anything else in life at any time of the morning. that is my ritual.

during the week, others' rituals are my own. during the week i get spangelet her breakfast, make spange's lunch and coffee, and get spangelet ready to get to the bus. sometimes baby bird helps me in this, on blessed days he sleeps till 8. sometimes i make it to the shower, sometimes i have to wait till baby bird takes his nap, depending on my plans for the day.

weekend, spange and i try to take turns sleeping in, if possible. then it's off to whatever plans we've made.

what do you do? do you have a routine or is it winging it?
 
weekdays:
wake up when the alarm gets me up, usually around 6:58am.
turn on the tv, watch the wrapup of the local news.
then watch the today show for a little while.
have a bowl of cereal or waffles or a muffin.
then shower, and get dressed.

weekends it varies depending on when I get up or what I need to do. I feel weird during the week if I don't stick to that schedule.
 
I wake up
I poop
I shower
I iron my clothes for the day
I cook me some breakfast, and then spend the time eating my breakfast VPN'd into my office, planning out my day.
 
Wake up.
Check out the massive erection I have.
Roll out of bed.
Check the internet for polo activity and apply the correct measures.
Then relax as somedays I don't need to work because I'm ridiculously rich.

what is this toaster you speak of?
 
Always shower at night, I hate going to bed all groady. Set my TV to go off in an hour. Up at 7 am. Feed the beast. Gotta have my tea in the morning. At least 3 bags in my BIG cup. Toast, 1 egg or a slice of cheese. To the office by 8.

-- Take advantage of my left arm if it's still asleep
-- Check the news on my PC, sometimes deviate from the news.
-- Release my inner tension though a series of massage techniques.
-- Apply holistic healing practices to my aches and pains of sleeping.
-- Drive to work, coffee shop, bookstore, where ever I need to go that morning.
