No no, Randie … first they get a hot half-cup of coffee thrown at them. That way their undue cheerfulness is dampened (pun INTENDED) and you clear the dust out of your cup. Always go for the two-fer. 😀 Do it before adding cream/sugar, natch, why waste them?
*raises hand*
I’m guilty of being an insufferably cheerful morning person. And, it’s true; people hate me for it.
For years – back in high school and college – I was an early person trapped inside the body of a late person, but I got over it and YOU CAN, TOO! And without drugs – meaning coffee – though you may want to continue drinking it to be more easily accepted by a otherwise unsympathetic fellow workers.
Seriously, I love the early morning and am glad most people are NOT morning people; too many can ruin it. 🙂
stick… it’s more than true. And running clears the mind. Ryan would not only run for health, but more likely to instigate the writing. It’s more torture for Randie (running) and should only be done under pressure.
GreyW…. Why would you waste the coffee at all? Throw a lamp! Although, some might argue that decaf would be acceptable to throw at the annoying. I, myself, drink the decaf.
Pete… I am a reformed night person, myself. I enjoy the kick in the morning of that first cuppa joe… and 6am usually brings me joy. I’m a wimp in my early old age… I usually start thinking about bed at nine pm (not that it always happens at 9).
Dada… dagger eyeballs… that’s more like. I bet you’d draw some good dagger eyeballs, non?
I have been observing over the past decade or so that, much to my chagrin, the offset of my waking/sleeping schedule has been shifting earlier and earlier. By the time I’m 60 I’ll be the typical Old Person, having dinner at the 3pm and going to bed by 8. *shudder*
Pete,
I, too, am usually cheerful in the morning…not always, but usually. I used to do early morning walks with a fellow who was NOT morning cheerful…I had to sort of reign in the giggles until his joie kicked in. UWG, don’t shudder at getting older. The body changes, and I say “go with it”…
“it’s more than true. And running clears the mind. Ryan would not only run for health”
Who says running is healthy? When I was in high school, I ran cross country one year. At the end of that semester I came down with jaundice. Ever since, I’ve been convinced that running makes you sick. After all, it’s completely logical from the point of view of the principle of logic used most frequently all over the world: post hoc ergo propter hoc.
Jack… blecht… I don’t even wanna think what that looks like…. except for the tattoo part. That could be fun!
uwg… NO! Don’t Go THERE! Revolt!
Jude… I KNOW you’re cheery in da morn… I got someone to be cheery with. Being cheerful by yourself isn’t pointless… but it IS tragic.
M. Lonie… Hmmmm…. being healthy makes you sick? hmmmm…. there is that guy who was a proponent of running who died of a heart attack at like age 40. You may be onto something.
One of these two is high on endorphin. Not too hard to guess which.

Cheer versus Grumpiness.
Rye got his run in and will now be looking forward to resting, playing, reading/writing and alone-time, as he works nights at the tiki tavern.
Randie, meanwhile, is looking to start her day with work (coffee deliveries in traffic) followed by more work (art mart with Grace and Mouse).

I keep expecting Randie to say, “Big fat hairy deal!”

It’s like that biker from Pee Wee’s Big Adventure. “I say we tattoo him, then we scalp him, then we hang him, and then we kill him!”
