Mornings are hard. Mornings after nights out are even harder. How many days would there be in a week without coffee? Two? Being productive or cordial, friendly- whatever you wanna call it- without caffeine in the system seems more impossible than Derek Shepherd ever coming back to Grey’s. My best advice in an instance where you have no choice but to speak to someone who has yet to get that first (of many) cups of coffee is to proceed with caution.

1. Mornings before coffee, no matter what day it actually is, feel like Mondays

And is there anyone who’s actually nice on a Monday morning? I think not.

2. Chances are, they won’t even try to make sense of what you're saying

Caffeine might as well be the only thing that stimulates the brain before noon. It’s almost like even that first sip clears that 8 AM fog we all know way too well.

3. Even people who are “morning people” aren't really morning people

Is there anyone who would actually rather be productive in the morning than sleep until eternity? If so, what do you eat? Where do you come from? I think it might be time to invest in a comfier mattress. You'll see; morning person no more!

4. If you get offended by the attitude of a hangry person, you’ll be shaking after you face the wrath of a person before their coffee

I can promise you, the sass will be real. If there’s one thing people are in the morning it's impatient. So much so that even a single conversation can be too much to handle.

5. No matter how much they love you, they will not show it

A person is not his/herself until that caffeine hits. Wait till then to give a hug.
