It depends on the morning, and who I wake up next to. If I'm alone, I'm always in a lousy mood. If I'm next to someone, I wake up happy as anything.
Are you a morning person?

Before kids, I was totally a night owl. Now, I'm up at an ungodly hour every day, and I don't function well before a shower and a pot of coffee. Even being on a "day owl" schedule for years now, I just can't get used to it.

Good answer. I imagine I would wake up much happier if I woke up next to someone. May not even need coffee then! ;-)

I'm pretty cranky if I don't get enough sleep or am woken up early. I will get angry and throw stuff at walls. my ibs is severe and if I don 't sleep well it ads more physical strain on my body which also causes mental strain because of it all so I end up pretty pissed. other than that the whole day I tell people don't bother or talk to me unless its really important cuz I'm ill running tot he toilet. One day I almost knocked my mom over as she knocked on my door I was opening it to rush to the toilet. RRR and I can't have caffine not even decaf upsets me

Working on getting up earlier though, he's going to have to go to school one day.

Everyone knows not to talk to me for an hr or so after getting up! Likely to get grunted at or worse...lol.

For me, it kinda of depends on the weather. If it's bright and sunny outside I usually hop right out of bed and get ready to start the day. If it's raining and/or dark and gloomy it takes me up to an hour to fully wake.
10/29/2010
I can be a morning person...our schedules shift so wildly that I'm really an any-time-of-day person.
10/29/2010
I'm in the other category because my morning's seem to depend on my one year old right now. Her schedule keeps changing due to her growing, which leaves me waking up anytime between 4:00 A.M and 10:00 A.M. to start my day. So morning person/non morning person seem to depend on her timing for waking up. :/
10/29/2010
I don't drink or eat anything when I wake up. I know. Shame on me. I'm suppose to eat breakfast. Yada yada yada

I used to be more of a morning person, years ago. Back then, I'd hop out of bed, stretch, do my push-ups and crunches and feel ready for the day. Was that really me? It's a strange thought. Later, my lifestyle allowed me to become nocturnal. If you see me here in the morning, it is because I have not slept. When I'm working at "normal" times, I still have a hard time, and am frequently late to work. Coffee might help if I had time to make it. No, not a morning person now.

I would puke if I tried to exercise in the early morning. I usually manage sex, but it's usually lying down, so it's OK. Even getting out of bed to get in the bath first thing nearly kills me. I HATE the process of waking up.
But, I don't do coffee. I just never developed a taste for it. I once in a while get frilly espresso drinks at coffee bars, but I never drink it in the morning. My Man says, "How the hell are you supposed to make coffee, BEFORE you've had coffee?" So he sets up the coffee maker before he goes to bed the night before. It has an alarm thingy on it, but he lost the book that the machine came with, so we never do that. He just presses the button, which he still says is "too much work." Funny thing, once he has that first cup (he used to take Excedrin as soon as he woke up, "Because it's like coffee in a pill." I got concerned about all the acetaminophen he was ingesting, so he doesn't do it anymore.) he's ready to deal with stuff. I am not ready to do anything except write until noon.
10/29/2010
Nope, I am not a morning person AT ALL. I need to have coffee, once that hits my blood stream I'm doing better. My husband is usually the one to get up with the kids in the morning and get them ready for school, they even know that if they need anything they come in and say "daddy?" and not "Mommy?" because if they wake me up I'm not the happiest camper.

I'm an other. I HATE getting up in the morning before 10 or so, but I also don't drink coffee and I don't rely on soda caffeine in the mornings either. I just like it when people give me a chance to roll around in bed for a while and decide I can't sleep anymore. Seriously though, I can sleep for about 20 hours straight with no problem.
10/31/2010
I'm a night owl so mornings suck. Hubby is up at 4:30am and I'm soooo not alive lmao I get up at 6am with the kids then after they are all off to school if I'm lucky I get some time by myself to enjoy some caffeine and on rare occasions a nap. On weekends I'll sleep til 9am yay!
10/31/2010
I have to wake up with my job half the time around 4 in the morning, the other half around 10 in the morning. So my sleep schedule is constantly changing. When I am home and I don't have to get up for anything in particular, my wife and I usually go to bed around 11 and wakes up around 8 to 9. If we are still in bed at 10, we are really sleeping in late. Neither one of us drinks coffee on a regular basis.
10/31/2010
I don't drink coffee.
I'm one of those people, I'm content to rest until I hear noise then I wanna get up.
Once I'm up, I'm good though.
Bright eyed and bushy tailed.

I get my caffeine from tea. When I'm up at the crack of dawn it is because I never went to sleep.
10/31/2010
I am so not a morning person. I am the kind of person who needs caffeine to get going except I don't consume caffeine because of migraines. So please...if it's early, just shoot me!
10/31/2010
I work overnights, so I have to seem bright a chipper at 6am when the next manager comes in to take over, but inside I'm just thinking "why didn't a decaffeinate sooner, I am not going to be able to go to sleep before the sun comes up!" I have a lot of trouble sleeping when it's bright out, to the point I want to more the bed into the massive walk in closet we have. I normally have to blind fold myself to sleep during the day. So technically speaking my mornings are 3pmish, and I take a while to wake up. I nap a bit more before I got in at 10pm, so I have to split my sleep schedule just to get normal stuff done when others do.
10/31/2010
I'm more of an afternoon person. In the morning and at night, I'm just too tired. If I want to do anything productive, it's usually in the afternoon.
10/31/2010
It wouldn't be so bad for me if I weren't up so much during the night with the kids. But as it is...don't talk to me til I've had some caffeine
11/01/2010
I'm a huge caffeine junky, but don't like coffee and usually don't have time to make tea, so it's usually soda/energy drinks. Terrible for me I know.
11/04/2010
I;m only a morning a person if you count going to sleep at two in the morning as your morning...night owl all the way.

Im an evening person, but Im also not a morning coffee drinker... it takes as long as it takes to wake up
02/19/2011
I love coffee and drink almost all day long when possible.
My personal schedule (as in the one I would choose rather than the one I have to live by) is about 11am to 1am. That is the window of time during which I think best.
Having said that, I will acknowledge that real life prevents me from having that schedule and I adjust well. I believe in putting a smile on your face as soon as you can when you wake up. No one cares that you are bitchy and miserable in the morning except you, so you might as well try to have a good attitude about something that may not be optimal for you.
