How a person wakes up or rather what a person wakes up to reveals a lot about their character. I am not a morning person to say the least. Back in my high school days, none of my roommates would talk to me until after breakfast, lest they got grunts in response to their cheery hello good mornings or wrinkly scowls to their ridiculous wide toothed smiles-what were they so happy about anyway? Being a teenager sucked. Anyways, back then in the mornings, me resembled one of the uglier looking characters on Muppet Show or Sesame street so NOW I understand why I was avoided.
But that was a long time ago when I had little control over my emotions and thought the thing most awesomely cooler than the flipside of my pillow was wearing my heart on my sleeve; it was a bleeping fad. I have since reigned in all my melodrama and traded it for a cool new mellow. This statement in turn makes me think of the colour yellow when I awake nowadays, yellow like the sun from my kitchen window, yellow like the-look at me- part of my outfit I love to include, yellow like one of the nice smelling soapy tubes in my bathroom.
When we get down to it, it takes me two hours to complete my get into a happy place morning ritual(explains why am always late for everything) The following sums it up. Meditate-dream about those things I wish to manifest into my life like Mike Dooley says, pray rain journal according to the Good Vibe Blog and look at my lists of stuff to conquer( in other places known as to do list's such as Maggie's here). Afterwards, I jump out of bed( not really, most days its a lie I have to tell myself- a lie like am just going to get a chunk of that chicken I cooked last night,that's all- that enables me to drag myself outta underneath my blankets) and into the jet streaming shower, followed by warm smelling lotions and lastly, yummy tasting coffee and eggs. We are thus off to go, with packed brunches,lunches and afternoon fruits, primped outfits and morning new jack swing mixes.
The following video is for all those losers(I suspect you'd be pirates...) out there in real life who actually go to the lows of asking you for a friend request on Facebook. Are people mad?
I used to be a cheery morning person but that changed.. I never want to get out of my bed.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should use a sort of trick Spinkly, like get up to do something you really like and then lie to your brain that you are going back to bed as soon as its done.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about that.. I'll try it. I just never have the energy for lifting myself out of bed, and when I finally do, its very late, or I really forced myself out and then I'm tired. smh! lol thats not good, I shouldnt even be laughing.
