I am the flip side: I have to remind my DH that we do not have Important Conversations late at night. I'm too tired to think straight, and immediately get mad at him because by bringing up something Important right before beddy-bye, I'm doomed to lie awake all night thinking about it (while he sleeps like a baby, of course).

One morning, I told Midwest!Ex that "Not only do I hate you immensely, but you left your wet towel on top of mine." He apparently thought "hate you immensely" was a bit harsh. So did I, once I'd had coffee and a shower. Mornings... bad time for things to go wrong.

I have, quite by accident and much to my surprise, become a functional morning person.

I will not say "cheerful". But I can function and be reasonably civil in the morning.

This is a great boon, as I'm the one who has to wake both the Empress and Da Punk Princess...neither of whom can be described using the words "civil", "polite", "reasonable" or "sane" in the same sentence as the word "morning".

Live in fear.

I didn't used to be a morning person, but when I shifted my work hours, I kinda had to be. The first couple of hours work much better if I'm left alone, but I can be perky if necessary. Sometimes it can be a useful weapon against those less inclined.

well, on Sunday, I'm leaving for my parents' house in New Mexico with Ellie.

Safe and uneventful travels. I have to say that you looked spectacular in the pictures vw posted. Got that whole glow thing going on.

I've never thought of myself as a morning person, because ugh. But I think I could be if I could somehow get to bed at a decent hour. Watching TDS and getting up at 6am just doesn't work out.

Then her stylist called her in and Eddie was still there! And she was too nervous to look at him! But he introduced himself! And was all nice and friendly and even handsomer in person!!!!1!!!!

So jealous! How awesomely, insanely cool!

I am not a morning person at all, but particularly before coffee. Mr. Jane refuses to have anything to do with me until I've had at least a cup. One morning he found me on the floor crying because I couldn't function well enough to seperate the filters to make the coffee.

I don't think I could ever be a morning person, but I think I'd be less bitchy if I wasn't so tired.

Why isn't he making the coffee for you???

My mom (NOT a morning person) sets her coffee up the night before and my dad (a morning person) pushes the button and brings her her first cup in bed. I think this is the secret to their 40+ year marriage.

Heh.

Gorgeous laptop bag made of Japanese cedar sounds crazy, but looks lovely. And smells good!
