I normally follow the Triple S routine, but I hate to shave everyday. After I brush my teeth and make my hair somewhat presentable I either do my morning prayers or eat breakfast as the order is not of particular importance.

This only applies to weeknights: I throw on some shorts or something, let the dogs out, let the chickens out into their yard and go back inside. Then I shower, shave and get dressed. Then I get my son up. Once I see momentum towards getting vertical I go make his lunch for school and let the dogs back in. Next I make breakfast for us both. Sometimes I get to eat breakfast with him. More often I eat it in the car on the way.

Ritual:
1. Alarm goes off. Curse God for creating 9 – 5 work week.
2. Pee.
3. Fumble around getting dressed to exercise. Curse God for putting doorways, desks and other furniture in my way.
4. Walk with dog for 30 – 35 minutes. Sweat profusely. Curse God for creating Houston, TX and Swamp Ass.
5. Drink a glass of water. Thank God for ice and air conditioning.
6. Hearty constitutional—walking’s great for getting the digestive tract working.
7. Light an incense.
8. Shower. Thank God for indoor plumbing.
9. Get dressed.
10. Feed dog.
11. Make sure stuff is packed for work.
12. Take break to collect myself before heading to the bus. Reflect on things not being quite so bad as they were at 5 a.m. when I got up.
13. Go to work.

My morning ritual typically goes as follows.
1) Alarm goes off
2) Get out of bed and head to shower
3)Shower – Anti-dandruff shampoo on head and with non – offensive nor overly perfumed body wash on the rest of me.
4) Shave – Merkur adjustable safety razor, badger hair brush and glycerine based shave soap (the kind in a bowl. Not in a can). Followed up by lotion. I never use anything alcohol based after shaving, it dries out the skin to easily. You have just stripped it of it’s natural oils while shaving.
5) Brush hair – Brylcreem (a little dab will do ya)
6) Brush teeth
8) Get Dressed
9) Kiss the wife and kids and head to work.

Its strange how every morning I get for work I feel like I have never had enough sleep, no matter how early I go to bed I still feel like I haven’t had enough sleep. My morning usually starts with me pushing the snooze button 3 or 4 times.
Then I blindly stagger to the bathroom and turn on the shower, As I am doing this my girlfriend rolls over from her side of the bed to mine.
I then stand under the hot shower drifting in between awake and asleep. Then when I have woken up I soap and rinse myself. Once out of the shower I towel off and shave the stubble using my beaver hair brush and soap and razor I then trim my beard and comb it. I then apply aftershave, deodorant and brush my teeth and floss, I then dry my hair and comb it into a stylish 1940′s style.
I then exit the bathroom and get dressed before grabbing my pre-packed bag (done the night before) and heading out the door for work.

Nice one. The triple S comment, while vulgar, was funny/reminds me of my Dad.
