When you wake up what do you do

[lunadragofelis@void.lgbt]

@eniko once I actually wake up (hit the snooze button for the last time), it usually takes me like 5-10 minutes to actually get up.

[apophis@yourwalls.today]

@eniko so given my alarm is on my phone, technically "fuck around on my phone for an hour (or more)" come to think of it

[soulsource@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@eniko I no longer bring my phone to the bedroom.
While I never used it in the morning, I kept wasting quite a lot of time in the evenings. Having it turned off and in another room has improved my sleep schedule a lot.

Currently I also don't have any other options than getting up right away. The cat demands a morning walk at sunrise every day, and will loudly complain if I try to sleep any longer.

@eniko coffee. COFFEE!

@eniko
Depends on how my executive function is working.
Or not working.

@eniko It's either "get the fuck out of the bed asap" or "fall back to sleep", and there is no in-between 💀

@eniko hit snooze and cuddle blahaj with a mounting sense of dread

@eniko I used to mess around on my phone, and I wished that I didn't. So I had a kid and that solved the problem. She wakes up at 6 AM, ready to rumble.

@eniko get out of bed in 5-10 minutes, prepare a mug of warm water and fuck around on my phone for half an hour in a bathtube 😉

[prozacchiwawa@functional.cafe]

@eniko
i think of it as "skidding", i often can't completely wake up right away so i'll fall back asleep and redo the end of the dream i was having again.

sometimes 5-10 times until my cat gets impatient enough to meow right in my face.

[luigirenna@infosec.exchange]

@eniko I started reading first thing in the morning a few years ago and it made a positive impact for me. Depending on the book, the day of the week, mood, etc. it might be anything from 15' to 1h

[lilyyllyyllyly@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@eniko reading this just after waking up while i refuse to get out of bed... nice reminder that i should probably get on with my day!

[efi@chitter.xyz]

@eniko I take my estrogen and fall again into the cozy

[kalleboo@bitbang.social]

@eniko fuck around on my *laptop* for an hour (or more)

[yoh@hachyderm.io]

@TomF @eniko, my morning starts with meowing around that informs all of them that I'm waking up, so they come to my bed for cuddles and kisses by sharpy tongues. That rarely allows to lie a bit more than a few minutes.

[affekt@hachyderm.io]

@eniko I guess fuck around for an hour or more. Woke up at 330 but didn't really need to be up til 445. screwed around on mastodon until I saw this poll

[sudocat@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@eniko have a cat aggressively demand cuddles then fall back to sleep for half an hour with a cat in my arms.

[cloudthethings@hachyderm.io]

@eniko I very much used to be a “wake up, be out of bed in seconds” person.

Now I’m medicated against anxiety, it’s a lot more work to get up. Takes me about 20 min most days and I’ve had to adjust to allow for that.

[jamis@tech.lgbt]

@eniko

the real strat is: 1) grabbing my work laptop from my nightstand and logging in, 2) wiggling my mouse every few minutes so teams thinks im online while I 3) scroll on my phone for as long as I can get away with until its time to join the standup meeting

[owenblacker@dataare.cool]

@eniko I get out of bed pretty quickly. And then spend way more than half an hour fucking around on my phone while sat on the loo 😅
