On the odd occasion that I wake up early enough to have a leisurely morning, I really like to take my time and enjoy it. Getting up at 8am is usually a pretty miserable affair. I'm hopping about in my cold room, waiting for the heating to kick in and checking out how horrible and grey it is outside. It never really gets much brighter in my room either, since it's north facing.
I always eat breakfast. I'm not the kind of person who can skip the first meal of the day. It takes long enough for me to get out of bed in the mornings (I need at least 3 alarms, plus a phone call from my mother before I'll even think about it) and if I don't refuel, I'm likely to just curl up and fall asleep again.
So this morning, I took a quick shot of what has, of late, become my morning routine. I sit at my desk with whatever I've selected for breakfast (I'm on a granola and yoghurt kick lately) and watch an episode or two of Parks and Recreation, then put on my warpaint/make up. It makes me feel a little bit more ready to face the day. Or at least not feel like I'm going to fall asleep standing up.
