Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
6am is an unholy hour, and no reasonable person should ever have to wake that early.
There's a 6 am??? Or is that just another word for fuck-o-clock-in-the-morning?
What I don't understand about all you night owls is how you manage to make coffee when you're barely functional.
I don't need my brain turned on to make coffee. My arms and legs will go through the correct motions without me.
Ours has a timer, and when I remember to set it, it's cool. But we very rarely do. (I think we just need to make it a habit.)
I don't. That is why God invented Coffee Bean.
Ah. So the process is get up, shower, dress, leave house, purchase coffee, drink coffee? I've never really had a situation where stopping at a coffee place on the way to work made sense, but I can see why it would be easier if it did.
Yeah. I never set up my coffee in the morning. It's always set up the night before, and we have a timer on our machine. LYRA COME OUT OF THE DARK AGES!!!
What I don't understand about all you night owls is how you manage to make coffee when you're barely functional.
I either drink it at work when someone else has made it, or I get the coffee pot ready the night before and just have to flip a switch.
I definitely need food and coffee before leaving the house, as discussed here already, but the food part is the key. Actually, somewhat recently I had toast first thing, but no coffee, and a couple of hours later was about to start STABBING EVERYONE, and then I realized why. Oops.
So the process is get up, shower, dress, leave house, purchase coffee, drink coffee?
Yep. I'm on autopilot until I hit Pico and the caffeine starts to kick in.
ETA: Not to mention the nicotine.
My standard morning routine involves checking e-mail, getting up to date on four or five sites, watching an "hour" of TV, a long shower, and breakfast.
Intellectually I understand that cutting down to a short shower and breakfast would mean I could sleep an hour more.
It just never takes.
What I don't understand about all you night owls is how you manage to make coffee when you're barely functional.
I force my bf to get up and make it for me or go to Starbucks when he's out of town. That is how.
These days I get up at 5:40, put on my robe and stumble to the living room to my rocker. I sit down and get handed a baby to feed.
I am distinctly not a morning person. I can usually function well enough to get myself showered, dressed, and to work, but I can't eat for at least an hour after I wake up, and I do much better if I don't talk to people.
bon bon, is your work place dress code business casual, and if so, what does that mean where you work?
