Candice Bergen's 'Wake Up' Call
In response to: Rise 'n' Shine: What is the first thing you think of when you wake up in the morning?
OK. The first thing I think of is my dog, Phyllis, who has usually shoved me to the edge of the bed where I am hanging, bat-like, trying not to fall off. Then I think of peeing because I’m getting up there — not as old as our Liz, but then, few are.

MY FIRST THOUGHTS ARE SHOULD i WALK BEFORE OR AFTER
BREAKFAST MY SUGAR WAS A LITTLE HIGH SO i did it first.
Now I feel better my sugar went down and my day seems on point.
That’s it.
Should I eat the snooze one more time?
i have never given any thought about my first thought every morning!!
i’m boring, my first action is to look at the clock and then ask myself if i have enough time to meditate or do i just jump in the shower and go, in which case i pray in the shower.
Love this! "Hanging, bat-like…" is a great line. My dog, Jack, hogs the bed, too. I can definitely relate.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Candice’s post totally wins.
If it’s any consolation, MY dog is a CHIHUAHUA and STILL somehow manages to shove me onto the edge of my QUEEN-sized bed, in which I sleep without a significant other!
Also, I get up to pee first thing in the morning, too - in addition to going once in the middle of the night, usually - and I’m only 25.
Poor Liz. ;-P
Not about my beloved dog, but I can’t find anywhere to post this, and I’ve always had a need to know …
Hi I am wondering if Ms. Bergen remembers making my most remembered movie. I came out of the theater screaming and crying, perhaps because I am 1/2 American Indian (Unkpapa Lakotah). I wonder if she remembers "Soldier Blue"?
