True life, I am a morning person. I possess all the classic symptoms - obnoxiously talkative, high energy levels, enjoys waking up early - the things that make people around me want to perform acts of violence.
While it's nice to be on my game first thing in the morning (I am terrible at night), the reasons I love the mornings are how quite and peaceful they are. For the past few years, I have gotten up 1/2 hour earlier then I needed to in the morning to spend some time reading, thinking, and praying. Everything in the morning seems more simple and clear - the e-mails haven't started flying, sleepiness makes me briefly forget my to-do list, and the day feels like a clean slate. Oh, and my big mug of tea is one of my favorite indulgences, even if the tea kettle whistling at 5:30am is the worst.
I'd love you hear - what's your favorite time of the day? Any special morning or night routines?

This is so relevant! I woke up early (not by choice - my credit card had fraudulent charges) but it gave me some time to get things done I had been putting off, and just relaxed. I felt much more energized coming into work as well.
