All That I Ever Was
This Choose and Defend Wednesday question came to me this morning as I stumbled out of bed and the guy next to me asked...why do you get up so early? It's true, I could sleep longer, but I have my ways! You probably have your ways too and I'd like to know what and why they are.

I am an Ease-into-it kind of guy. I wake up about an hour and a half before I have to leave for work, make a pot of coffee, surf the Internet and make my lunch. I like it that way, then I don't feel so hurried. EASE INTO MY DAY, final answer.
I get up and give myself half an hour to get ready, but leave an hour before I need to be at work. I have a 20 minute drive... that gives me time to enjoy music on the way and sip out of my travel cup. Then, when I get to work, I finish my coffee while eating my sack breakfast and working a Sudoku. I like to be relaxed when I begin my day, not hurried like I feel when I rush to work and hit the floor running.
I'm without question a "sleep until the last minute." I have no hair and no fashion sense, and I wear the same shoes everywhere. Wherever I'm going there's likely a beverage of some sort, and I can hold out 'til lunch for some grub.
No more yanky my wanky. The Donger need sleep.
Ease into it. I do set the alarm early enough that I can hit the snooze button once, but then I want time to sit around and drink coffee. And if I have my son, I also need time to pack his lunch and make us noth breakfast, and then we hang out for about 20 minutes before we have to leave.
Can I say inbetween? I kinda am. I sorta ease into the day but I'm rushing because I didn't leave enough time to ease...
Jasen: I actually have a similar routine. One for Ease into the Day.
Silly: That sounds like a very nice way to begin the day! Two for Ease into the Day.
James: Oh sexy girlfriend! I have similar sensibilities, except I do like breakfast :) One for Sleep Until the Last Minute.
Secret: I think I did get in the habit of giving myself plenty of time because of the kids also. Three for Ease into the Day.
NoRegrets: haha! I see your dilemma. Rushed easing is tough.
Everyone: So far it is 3-1 with Easing into the Day leading Sleeping Until the Last Minute...and one rushed easer. Anyone who hasn't yet had a chance to comment, please feel free to join in :)
I prefer to ease into the day, at least I like to have time to make a coffee and drink it but I'm usually up and moving and getting myself and the children ready. I'm usually up between 6-6.20am.
FW: You will fit right in here then! We are Easers :) Four for Ease into the Day.
Now at 4-1!
If I have to go to work, I try to sleep until the last minute. When I first started working the 7:30 to 4:30 shift, I was so worried that I'd sleep in and would get up extra early. Now....meh... I'm more relaxed about it and know how much time I need to get ready and get to work.
Tara: I used to be able to wake up with no alarm! It was amazing, but I lost that ability at some point. Two for Sleep Until the Last Minute.
A more interesting race at 4-2 :)
