What's the first thing you do when you wake up?

I actually have an annoying habit (well, my mother tells me it's annoying) of setting the alarm at a particular time, and then setting it into snooze mode of 5 or 15 minutes when it rings so I could sleep some more, haha. But the first thing I do when I wake up? Drink water. How about you?

The first thing I do when I wake up is snuggle closer to my fiance and wake him up. Then we'll lay in bed a little longer before getting up and either using the bathroom or going to the kitchen for more drink and something to eat.

other than going back to sleep? I wash my face to completely wake myself up.. my dog waits for me to wake up but when I sleep in she wakes me up, then we look for breakfast but most of the time i wake up late so the food's all gone so i end up eating cookies or some sweets... i know it's bad but no one left me anything to eat!!! then take my dog out to do her business... then i start my afternoon!

I immediately go online, lol. I wait until I've typed for half an hour then I go take a shower. It's become a routine since April, I think. I feel like I just have to get things out of the way or something. I'm always trying to write and come up with something new to start the day with. I still can't believe I've been on Mylot for this long. It feels like I've been on here for a year, but it's actually been a little over one month.

I do not like to get up immediately after I wake up. Sometimes if I just had an interesting dream, I'd like to try to replay it, especially the dream is not finished, I hope I can go back to the sleep and continue it.:)

Usually the first thing I do when my fiance wakes me up ,is go to the kitchen and take my blood pressure medicene, and then I decide what I want to eat before me and fiance get on the computers and start mylotting.

I was actually thinking to myself last night i cant believ how i've made myself a little system starting when i go to bed. I put my dog in "her spot" on my bed, get in bed at night, take my hair out of the ponytail or w/e its in. Then go to sleep. I wake up in the morning, get out of bed, put my hair up, put on socks. I turn on the computer and go make coffee so that when im done making coffee the computer is booted, and then i go on my computer. Everyday, never flaws.

I normally wake up with my better-half's phone call, hear the voice, that always echo in my ears, we simply have some wonderful moments together, then I drift back to some good sleep :)

My snooze is set for seven minutes and I hit it about 10 times before I actually get up. My boyfriend wants to throw the clock out the window. Other than that, I try to stumble as fast as I can to the shower. Normally I'm running late so speed is essential!

LOL that is funny i actully do the same thing but it is much worse than 5 or 15 mins try 30 or 40. And I have to or I will not get out of bed. Sometimes I do not even remember hitting snooze the first couple of times. My mom used to get sooo mad :-) good thing I do not live at home now. But when i finally get up I have to watch the news and stare for a bit.

The first thing I do is pour myself a cup of coffee. go back to bed with it, turn on the morning news, a little later I boot up my computer and check in with my lot ...I use to check my email first thing but now I go directly to mylot, I don't want to miss anything,..and mylot is more fun, a nice way to start the day.

Ido almost the same thing as you. I'll set the alarm at 8, off it when the alarm rings and set it again at 8.20 so that i will have some time to just lay in bed first. The first thing I do when I wake up is look at myself in the mirror and go to the bathroom. I heard that drinkinr warm water before having your breakfast is good for the body so lately I've been trying that.
