Up anywhere from 6 (well, poop) to 8 (yes!). Wander into kitchen, turn on coffee maker, take out mouth guard, swap out yesterday's cup for a clean one, make sure cup is right side up, hit the double espresso sequence (paying close attention because the x2 button is too close to the power button for my stunned, spastic, uncaffeinated mind and fingers), pee, take coffee and phone to garage, smoke as little as possible, head to living room, finish coffee while playing word games (dordle, wordle, the mini, zorse, octordle, hurdle), check HN, various news sites, poop, have first breakfast, greet dog of joy, wipe him down, feed him, walk him (20 minutes if I have meetings or other reasons to get home sooner, an hour or more otherwise, unless it is so cold he cuts it short (anything under -15C and the odds of that are even; -30C and might turn around at the end of the driveway)), have second breakfast.

Now the day can begin.
