What do you do first thing in the morning?
I check my retirement plan to see if my lottery ticket hit.

Then I take a piss.

You?

36. Ditto.
And then I look at all the rainbows in my room. (One window faces dead east and I have filled it with crystals/prisms hanging from the curtain rod.)

I love to see them in the morning.

16. I go to the biffy first.
I can barely walk, because the pets expect their daily treat as soon as I move. They gather around me, and I am certain they are trying to kill me. They plot this while I'm sleeping!

Jeezus Christ, the reason I wake up is when I gotta pee! They have to wait, then they get their treats.

They then get treats, and I get coffee.

Then I poop.

17. up at 2:30am each day
Let the dogs out. Than feed the feral and friendly cats in the greenhouse. We wake up at 2:30am. My wife starts work early. She feeds the dogs and empties the litter boxes the first thing in the morning. I feel like were the live in servants for our fur balls.
We do sleep late on the weekends (4:30am). I think I'm in a rut!

18. Dr Pepper
I have to have a Dr Pepper and a cigarette before I can even THINK about facing another day in my life. Fuck anything else until I've finished my cigarette and had some Dr Pepper. I'll pee when I finish those, then start grumbling and facing my day.

51. That's a nighttime prayer, correct.
To be specific, we call down the wrath of an angry God upon A-Rod. Seems to be working.

46. I stumble downstairs and try to get into the only bathroom
in the house while a dog is racing me on one side and a cat is racing me on the other. I think they have a plot to trip me down the stairs so they can collect my insurance and buy all the dog treats and catnip they want.

53. Stumble down the stairs
push the button on the coffee maker

climb back up the stairs

whizz and brush my teeth

get my pistol and go downstairs again

clean cat and dog dishes, put new wet food down for the cats, refresh water bowls, give everybody a half-hearted greeting

open kitchen window and fire several rounds through the woods toward the Amish prick that lives on the other side

grab 4 aspirin and a cupful of precious coffee and head for the computer in the den.

finally fucking sit down, light up a smoke, check CNN and wait for the coffee to kick in. I don't eat breakfast.
