What's your morning ritual?

[Shemeska]

1) Hit snooze button 1-3 times
2) Roll out of bed
3) Check blood sugar.
4) If sugar is below a certain level, have a snack. And by snack I mean a 4 shot latte.
5) Bathroom
6) Go back to sleep till I actually have to wake up and get ready, because I get up that early just to check my sugar level
7) Get ready, though the snooze button may get nailed a few more times before that

You have a 4 shot latte and then go back to bed?!

1. Alarm goes off. Snooze bar and Ignore it. Repeat this four or five times until I feel like bothering to get out of bed for the day or the terrier annoys me enough that I get up. She knows when 'get up' time is, and if I don't she nudges me and walks on my head because I guess she thinks I'm dead or something.
2. Put terrier out
3. Take care of any bodily functions
4. I take a shower within 30 minutes of going to bed, so I can just dress now.
5. Comb hair.
6. Let terrier in, go into kitchen to replace food and water for both dogs. (Chihuahua has a bladder the size of a gallon jug that must extend into hyperspace; she goes to the bathroom in the afternoon when I get home).
7. Fix lunch to take to work; drink OJ and perhaps milk. If I'm running late, fix toast. Being 5 minutes later isn't going to make any difference.
8. Brush teeth, sometimes floss (most flossing done at night), Listerine
9. Put any outgoing mail into the box and put the pickup flag up.
10. Go to work
11. Get Diet Coke from fridge
12. Read 'For Better or For Worse', Comics.com, and DailyInk, then selected web comics for about 10-15 minutes. Check eBay if I have anything up for sale. Terminal Service into remote work server to bypass work web filters and go to ENWorld, LiveJournal.
13. Work.

I wake up 30 minutes before I have to leave for work. Take a shower, brush my teeth, get dressed, put on the leg brace and other accoutrements, feed the cats, the fish, and the parakeet, try to remember to take my lunch, then hit the road. Takes me 40 minutes to an hour to get to work from that point.

I'll second shaving in the shower. That's how I've done it for the past few months. It works very well.

I've been meaning to try that, but the cord on my Norelco won't reach that far. Maybe I should use an extension cord...
