What is your morning routine? Breakfast? Exercise? Shower?

Here is mine:

Wake up at 5:45am. I eat breakfast first, almost always a bowl of cereal. Then I go to the bathroom. I brush my teeth, then shave, then take a shower, and finally, get dressed.

I leave by 6:30 to get to work by 7:00 am.

I'd like to start incorporating a 30 minute jog every morning, and a more balanced breakfast, but this would probably force me to start waking up at 5:00am... and I'm already tired enough waking up @ 5:45am.

Do you pack the breakfast the night before? Or does your office just let you eat breakfast when you get there?

Wake up around 0445, work out with a group outdoors from 0530 to 0645. Get home around 0715, shower, dress, breakfast. Leave for work around 0830. Get to work around 0915. All this changes if I end up working a night shift.

Usually, looks like this:
0700: Alarm clock rings
0715: I wake up
Between that and 0900, I just have a breakfast while checking my emails, forums, etc. Usually toasted bread slices. I shower and dress before or after that. I leave for school, usually pretty tight in time, since I'm 3 minutes away and always tend to arrive just in time/late. ;)

If I'm at my gf's, I wake up at 0700 too, kiss her goodbye (she works night shifts), leave for home (20 minutes ride), and do the usual routine.

wake up between 6:45 and 7:00, get ready/watch the news from about 7-7:30, pack lunch and load up the water bottle before leaving the house around 7:40. i eat a yummy cup of yogurt for breakfast while sitting in traffic on the interstate for about 30-35 mins, finally arriving at work at 8:10 or 8:15 (supposed to be at work at 8, but no one cares if we're late unless we have a scheduled meeting at 8).
