Currently listening to: Cryin’ – Aerosmith

I was cryin’ when I met you
Now I’m tryin’ to forget you
Love is sweet misery
I was cryin’ just to get you
Now I’m dyin’ ’cause I let you

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

Prompt created by yours truly. 
Feel free to use any prompts for July that I post and/or tag me.
I’d love to read your responses.

  1. I look at my phone to see what time it is.
  2. If time permits, I will go back to sleep for x amount of minutes before my alarm goes off.
  3. I’ll slowly roll out of bed and then take a deep breath, wondering why I haven’t won the lotto yet.
  4. Brush my teeth, wash my face, apply lotion and sunscreen, put my hair up either in a ponytail or in a hair claw, get dressed, grab my food + water + decaf tea, tell my dog to be good and make smart decisions today, and drive off to work.

If it’s the weekend and I don’t have to work and have no plans, all bets are off.

I tend to get super lazy. I’ll roll around in bed, doom scroll, and fall in and out of sleep for most of the morning and afternoon.

Then there’s that one time I updated my profile pic on my socials. The grease has been on my hair since the day before. I am the epitome of laziness.

Craig: Wussup with the new profile pic? Lol.
Me: it’s my nasty i haven’t showered today and IDGAF look
Craig: Like “Yea it’s 7pm and I look like I just woke up.  Fuck you and fuck you.”
Me: exactly
Craig: Shower at least.  Before you get the beef curtain curdles
Me: naw.  i brushed my teeth and washed my face at least

Mr. Carl: waddup new look?? u’d fit in sf
Me: do i look like a hipster
Mr. Carl: you look chinese with the hair now…
Me: awesome
Mr. Carl: corporate as well, are you trying to be a hipster?
Me: not really just being me
Mr. Carl: new hairstyle?
Me: lol naw i just slept with my hair like that and haven’t bothered fixing it
Mr. Carl: oh ok…thats cool, the douche approach to hair.  just wake up and see how it sets
Me: hahaa yea

FYI: Craig and Mr. Carl are both Chinese. And they seem to be way more judgy than some of my girlfriends. Go figure.

    A nostalgic song and a thought-provoking prompt. 🎵✨ Cryin’ by Aerosmith captures the emotional highs and lows of love so powerfully.

    As for the question, the first moments after waking often set the tone for the entire day. Whether it’s a quiet moment of gratitude, stretching, enjoying a cup of coffee, or simply taking a deep breath before the day begins, those small routines can make a meaningful difference.

    A wonderful prompt that invites us to reflect on the simple habits that shape our mornings. 🌅

    This: “tell my dog to be good and make smart decisions today” and “the douche approach to hair” made me laugh. I didn’t see any breakfast in your morning routine. Tsk… tsk… Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Or so they say.

    1. justrojie Avatar

      i generally don’t eat breakfast, i’m not a morning person at all.

    If I wake up before my alarm, I check the time to see if it’s worth going back to sleep.

    It rarely is…

    If my alarm wakes me, I dread what’s coming if it’s a weekday or roll over and sleep for a bit if it’s the weekend.

    Then, I force myself to walk Doggo and feed the crows. On weekdays, I shower before that and rush to blog after. On weekends, I shower after so I can get a bit more sleep (and hope I don’t bump into anyone) and take my time blogging.

    It’s an exciting life…
