Heroin!
Just kidding, I haven't done heroin at 6.00am for years.
These days just a couple of beers does the trick.  ;)

I'm a teacher with the Birmingham City Schools.  By 6:30, I'm sitting in my classroom...posting to the MMJ website it would appear; and getting ready for the day (*coffffeeeee, lots of coffee.  There's this awesome place in Homewood called Red Rain.  They're a hippy shop, and they sell Free Trade Coffee.  Good stuff; makes you feel pretty good about yrslf as well).  By 7:30 my classroom is full of 12-13 year olds; there is no better wake up call.

Chock-Full-O-Nuts Coffee.  "The best I can afford."  
Gotta have 2 cups before I get the boy out of his crib, or the day's shot.

I used to be able to wake up on my own until Ms. Jen introduced me to the coffee ritual.  Now I am completely retarded until I have coffee.  I need a good amount of time awake and in my house before I can leave.  I'm not one of those get up and go out people.  I have to sit and take my time.

Luxurious.  It's only because I can.

I prefer Orange Juice over coffee.  I feel more alert and better when I hit up the O.J.

By the way, Tundra, that avatar quote is still cracking me up :)

I like your 'tell-it-like-it-is' brutally honest approach Realdeal.
No need to be shy!

i hear stories every single morning at work and it usually goes like this.. "i got me some this morning.." and every once in a while.. it will be followed by a "...twice."

I need a bowl of cereal!
The Japanese eat rice & soup & seaweed & all kinds of funny shit in the morning.
Don't get me wrong - I love Japanese food but not first thing in the morning.

I think I'll start a cereal thread...

Thanks for all the advice. Very heartwarming. I'm going to try out the bone option tomorrow morning. Wish me luck.
