morning schmorning

Last Thursday, for the first time since I arrived in Melbourne I had to wake up at 4:30 in the morning.

We stepped out into the street and I looked around with eyes still heavy with goo and proclaimed..
I don’t see what the big deal is.. Mornings are stupid. It looks like evenings only you have to wake up for it and it smells like disinfectant.

I’ve never been a morning person and I don’t think I ever will be.
Simply because, as I already so eloquently said,  I think mornings are stupid.

And morning people will say…

But the air is so crisp in the morning .. That’s ok the only thing I like crisp are my chips.
But coffee is so much better in the morning… uh… no it’s not. It’s just as good at brunch time.
But the newspapers are fresh off the press!… I like my papers previously read. That way I don’t get newsprint on my fingers and that smell is gone too.
But the glorious morning sun on your face!! .. Is annoying in my honest opinion. I like my sun well over head and not glaring on my face
But breakfast food is amazing! … I agree and that is why brunch was created.. For people like me.
You can see your breath in the morning… so what? As long as I’m alive I know I’m still breathing I don’t need to see it.
But it’s the start of the day.. When people are most alert and optimistic.. I like meeting people in the afternoon.. When the day has already jaded them a little bit but there’s still a little hope left for the rest of the day.

Having made my stand about how stupid mornings are..
I don’t regret waking up at the butt fuck of dawn..

Because the look on Jack’s face when he got his new iPhone 3GS..

SO TOTALLY WORTH WAKING UP FOR.
