The best part of waking up?

I wish I were a morning person. I really do. I just don't have it in me to wake up and do one of those coffee commercial stretches that look so refreshing, smile, hop out of bed, sing in the shower, dance in the car on the way to work... uhm, speak. None of that good stuff. As a baby, my family would just wave to me in the morning because I SO disliked speaking. One of my favorite home movies involves a 3 1/2 year old me(sitting at my new little tykes table)on Christmas morning eating oatmeal. The camera zooms in on my head, full of pink curlers, as I look up at the camera with a spoon full of oatmeal and say "STOP TALKING TO MEEEEEE!", in a ridiculously cute baby voice. It's just so me. I really do want to be at least a little more pleasant in the morning though. As we speak, The Boy is sleeping peacefully next to me. I am so happy to be falling asleep next to him, but come morning... oh no. He may as well be sleeping on the floor. Don't get me wrong! I'm not MEAN... I'm just not nice either. Ughh, and you know what really bugs me? When I wake up with a song in my head. I. CAN'T. STAND. IT. Yesterday, I woke up with that new Kelly Clarkson song in my head. Ergh.

  2. Ha.. I'm SOO not a morning person either. I'm a little cranky (okay, A LOT cranky) when I wake up. It's best not to speak to me for at least an hour.

  3. Haha! I can relate. I'm sorta the same way - no one talks to me though. They call me "Punky". The only one I'm normally nice to is my son - it's not his fault. Otherwise, most stay away until I have had at least one cup of coffee. I've tried my hardest to wake up cheery, but I can never do it.

  4. I'm not a morning person so I get up a full 1/2 hour before I have to wake the kids up for the day. I get my crankyness out of the way and then deal with the rest!

  6. I HATE the mornings! In college neither my roommate or I were morning people....we got dressed for class in complete silence. We did not speak until at least lunch. My father was in the military.....mornings were VERY painful growing up!
