Are you a morning person?

Recommended Posts

I found this poem and was wondering how many of you are morning people? Hopefully no one will be offended by the poem. I can't say, I would go to that extreme, but generally I'm not a morning person.

"The Morning Poem"
I woke early one morning,
The earth lay cool and still
When suddenly a tiny bird,
Perched on my window sill,
He sang a song so lovely
So carefree and so gay,
That slowly all my troubles
Began to slip away.
He sang of far off places
Of laughter and of fun
It seemed his very trilling
brought up the morning sun.
I stirred beneath the covers
Crept slowly out of bed,
Then gently shut the window
And crushed his f%&#ing head.

I am TOTALLY a morning person. I usually get up fresh, not early but eager.
I am lucky and can work from home alot. So 7:00am in my jammies, on the computer drinking my Starbucks is the most productive time of the day. I get so much accomplished when I don't have the Days Drama's weighing on me.
I crash early though. Pass Out Paula, as I'm loving refered to.

hehehe, wow, gotta hold myself back there.
I, on the other hand, am described perfectly by the poem. Driving truck has it's advantages. I set my own hours, so I tend to drive most of the night, and sleep away most of the morning.

After 3 cups of Jet Fuel I am cool....
Before that.... you take your own chances
And I never remember anything prior to 10 am.
Cyber said he was trying to talk to me but I said........ I was talking to George Formans wife about this new thing I saw on late night infomercial. And I told Sheneekwaboboo to sue them.
I dont remember any of that. But he remembers the name I used especially.
Then he asked me where is the remote control and.... I told him it was in the filing cabinet. He asked me where is the filing cabinet and I told him.... it was in my butt.
I have no idea..........

Isn't it irritating to be with a morning person, and you aren't a morning person? Especially when they start talking and talking and talking. I just want some quiet in the morning at least for an hour or so, have a cup of coffee, read the paper......

My body and my mind don't get along well. Body wants to wake up and get moving at 6:30 every morning, mind doesn't begin to focus for at least an hour or two (or a pot of coffee or so) later than that. I can really live up to my screen name in the mornings....

That's the way it is with me. I don't sleep late, it's just I need some time to get moving. I don't like going to bed early either, but I don't sleep in late. I guess I just don't get much sleep! Just give me an hour to get fully awake and I'm fine.

I am somewhat similar -- I hate to get up in the AM, but I do some of my best, most productive work early in the day! (When I have work, been gainfully unemployed since 19 June 2001 -- dang tech market...) :(
Had a cow-orker that warned everyone not to even greet me in the morning until I greeted them, lest they face the wrath of "Mt. St. Ceman".:D

Can yooou say "Passive-Aggressive"? Great poem! I remember hearing a similar version years ago that was used as a cadence by some friends in the 82nd Airborne. It went like this:
A yellow bird
with a yellow bill
landed on my window sill.
I coaxed him in
with crumbs of bread,
then I crushed
his F***ing head!
And by the way, morning is my favorite time of the day. I don't always have an easy time getting out of bed, but if I sleep past 7am (I'm usually up by 5:30 or 6:00am) or stay up past about 10 pm (even if I'm not partying) I pretty much feel like shit all day. I find the older I get, the more this is true.

I am definetely not a morning person. However, I am forced to wake up at 6am every morning to shower, shit and shave before leaving for student teaching at 6:45am. One good thing is that I am done student teaching at 2:42pm and come home to nap.
I would do good on a job that I could work from home and make my own hours.

Night person.

I've a Gouse and Harden in the country
An ace I call my plown,
A treat I can replace to
When I beed to knee alone
Catterfly and butterpillar
Perch on beefy lough
And I listen to the dats and cogs
As they mark and they biaow
Yes wature here is nunderful
There is no weed for nords
While sitting by my windowflutter
