Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I am more of a morning person than the hubby (but dead folk have been known to show more life than he does in the morning), but I'd like to be able to sleep until 7 or 7:30 ideally. I think of morning people as those 5 and 6 am types.

But when I wake up, I am awake, so it's easy to get up, get Franny out of her crib, change her, make her a sippy cup, and make a pot of coffee. And yes, I still have my morning cup of coffee. I just don't manage to finish it. (You'd think by now that I'd just pour the cup 1/3 full, but nope.)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Congratulations, NovaChild!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Healthma to Jeff!

I'm neither a night owl nor a morning person. Years of training, for lack of a better word, have made me able to get up when the alarm goes off at 6:30, shower, dress, eat and be out the door by 7:30. That doesn't mean I like it, though...

If I only had a brain...

Oh, suhNERK. Why consonants matter, from the LA Times correction page:

Finally, Gayle Johnson was misquoted as saying, "Fish hard, lick the bait, and don't think you know more than the crew." The correct quote is "Fish hard, pick the bait, and don't think you know more than the crew.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I remember the time in my teens when I was taking an afternoon nap in the basement. I woke up when my mom came downstairs to find out why the phone was off the hook. Apparently, a call came in from her sister that I woke up enough to answer, but instead of telling my mother she had a call like I told my aunt I would, I just put the phone down and went back to sleep. I had no memory of doing so. Both Mom and Aunt Evelyn teased me about this for months.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

A much smaller, select few of you have actually woken me up,

It's fun! It's like poking at a sleeping beer with a stick. And then of course you are mauled to death. But before the mauling? It's fun.

Hey. New board.

Thanks for the congratulations, guys! I'm... completely incapable of functioning normally after getting this news.

I may have to start believing in God. Again.

I'm not a monring perosn or a caffeine drinker. It's not pretty. I probably waste the first hour of work just waking up. Then I go for break.

Um, there's a TAR clip show on my TV right now. Is anyone else getting this?
