Morning Has Broken (Ooops!)

[anarchist_nomad]

Nine-thirty in the morning.

I've already done my morning chores, eaten breakfast (!), swam two kilometers, and now -- with a tall mug of tea in hand -- am settling down to my Monday morning video conference.

So this is what being a morning person feels like!

Wowza -- my proverbial hat is off to you, sir![*] You must be one of those mythical morning people!

For me, I often roll out of bed on Monday mornings at 09:25, which gives me just enough time to log into my video conference before it begins. To have woken at seven, eaten breakfast (which I almost never do) and swam two kilometers -- plus done all my morning chores and made tea before the meeting started -- is really rather unusual for me. I kinda liked it, actually. May have to try it again one of these days...

[*] You're a smidge too late for my real hat, which I took off about twenty minutes ago.

The thing is, I'm not a morning person by choice. I'm a morning person because getting up at 6 is about the only way I manage to get to work by 9(ish). The hour-long nap after being up for a half-hour is not a sign of someone who's bright-eyed and bushy-tailed at the crack of dawn.

I have a lot of respect for the quote by Richard Stallman, stating his enjoyment of the dawn: it's such a quiet and peaceful time to go to bed.
