What's your morning ritual?

[reveal]

Everyone has a morning ritual. You get up, you do certain things, day in and day out. Here's mine:

1) Wake up and grab some clothes to put in the dryer to dewrinkle (I hate ironing)
2) Pee (That's important)
3) Fart around online for about 10 minutes
4) Take a shower
5) Get pretty
6) Help my son brush his teeth and get him dressed
7) Either help my wife get her lunch ready or get some fruit and yogurt for my son
8) Get all the stuff together and leave
9) Drop my son off at daycare
10) Get dropped off at my office by my wife
11) Put my lunch in the fridge
12) Take my coat off, log in, grab my coffee cup, and go to the kitchenette
13) Get coffee, go back to my desk, check my e-mail, and do a little surfing since I'm here at least 30 minutes before anyone else

Barring some discrepencies here and there, this is pretty much what I do every single weekday morning.

My morning ritual varies greatly depending on the day of the week.

Monday and Thursday go a little like this:
(1) Groan about the dog barking and how I wish he would grow some thumbs and learn to take himself outside.
(2) Pee.
(3) Put on coat.
(4) Take Vader (the dog) out for a walk.
(5) Come inside, turn on computer, remove coat and clothes to jump in the shower (I take very short showers... helps wake me up).
(6) Beautify myself.
(7) Check email, EN World, and my World of Warcraft mail.
(8) Leave by 8:45 for school.
(9) Arrive at school, pay for parking, grab a bagel (everything bagel with plain cream cheese), and a Vitamin Water.

Tuesdays are special b/c they're the one day a week I go into the office to work...
(1) Wake up at 9am.
(2) See steps 1-7 above.
(3) Leave by 10:15 for work.
(4) 11:00, arrive at office, chat with coworkers in the kitchen while I make my tea.
(5) 11:45 - sit down at desk to work until 4pm.

Wednesdays are great.
(1) Sleep as late as I'd like.
(2) Steps 1-7 again.
(3) Be at class by 2pm.

Fridays are variable... sometimes, I get up really early to get to the Library of Congress by 10am... sometimes, I sleep until noon and get up to run errands and do chores around the house. It's a good day b/c I have no work or school obligations.

Well, back was I was a student with too little sleep I would usually shower and then wake up. Some people may also combine showering and peeing I suppose.
