(if any)
I wake up at about 8:00, dive into shower, brush teeth, shave, dry hair a little
Make cup of tea and check emails whilst watching Pocoyo
then stuff gunk in hair, brush my teeth again and depart (usually at about 8:45)
Do you have one? or are you crazily chaotic? I find I just do stuff in this sequence, I don't do it consciously.

I wake up when I wake up, I make a coffee then head for the bathroom. Poop and post, then it's into the bath. Out of the bath, air dry, breakfast, clean teeth.
The only irregularity is the time this all happens.

Alarm goes off at 7:15ish.
Ignore it and sleep until 7:40ish.
Get up, find something presentable to wear.
Skip breakfast 99% of the time.
Go outside and wait for bus.
I *really* hate mornings. I sleep in as long as possible.

I wake up to "Morning Edition" on NPR and listen for about 30 minutes before waking up. Then I get up and wake the kids to get them ready for school. My wife and I tag-team breakfast, signing school papers, making sure the kids have all the need and then they are off.
I have about 1 hour before I have to drive to work, so it's usually a shower or at least a shave if time is tight, coffee or tea, a fast breakfast and then off to work. On Monday I have to deal with taking out the garbage.

I wake at either 4:30 or 6:00, depending on whether or not one of us is working that day. The dogs go out, we feed the dogs and cats, and then we eat a light breakfast. On work days after breakfast it's showers, dress and out the door at about 6:00. On non-work days, after breakfast we read the paper for a bit then it's outdoors for a walk/run by about 7:15.
We ALWAYS eat at least something for breakfast and it ALWAYS includes coffee. That's life support.

Wake up, get outta bed, drag a comb across my head. After I take a whiz and brush my teeth, anyway. Then let the dog and cat out, put on a pot, feed the animals.
Then maybe goof off here a little, have a smoke and a cup, get the kids ready* to go and that's about it.
*which is usually a joint effort, but sometimes it gets taken care of without any assistance from me.

I wake up around 8:20, brush teeth, pee.
work for an hour or so.
First cup of coffee at around 10:30.
that's now.
if I'm knee deep in a project my schedule changes drastically, usually up all night and wake up at around 11.

I must be insane - I saw two marijuana references in this post.
For the record, I'm not a pothead. I've ever even seen pot in real life. I'm just really tired right now.

The usual - wake up, shower, breakfast, coat on, out the door kind of routine. Usually we'll put on music - often the radio.
The big thing is spending a few minutes together talking about the day ahead, and what plans we may have in the evening.

Woke up, got out of bed
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up, i noticed i was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
Somebody spoke and i went into a dream
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hang out at the coffee shop for maybe a half hour and chill with the local folks
Now that the tourists are gone - morning coffee(.80 cents) by a Franklin type stove and overstuffed chairs is great is a great way to start the day.

Wake up at 5am, no alarm. This happens everyday, even on weekends.
Surf the web/email/forums/watch movie
Shower/shave/brush teeth/put contacts in at 6:00.
Leave for work between 6:20 and 6:30.

Am I the only one who brushes his teeth first thing out of bed? I can't stand the feeling of teeth that have been sleeping for hours.

Isn't this a little pointless, seeing as the next thing you're going to do is throw an industrial-sized coffee in there?

it has been said that doing an oral activity while waking up actually helps you wake up quicker. i.e. brushing your teeth

I don't drink coffee to wake up. I may have an espresso later on, but I just don't like the *yuck* feeling of unbrushed teeth.

Alarm at 6:55 or 7:05 depending on whether it's work or class in the morning. Hit snooze at least three times, then pee, flush, brush teeth, and start the shower right as the toilet finishes filling. Jump out of the shower, throw on clothes, throw stuff in backpack, then hop on the bike and pedal furiously to campus so as not to be late for work.

I brush my teeth before peeing most days. And I don't drink coffee or have breakfast so they stay nice and clean for a while.

MY routine is very different. On the days I work (every 3rd day) I get up, put on shorts and a tshirt and drive to work. Once at work I go work out and eat breakfast, then take a shower, brush teeth and get into my uniform. Then I'll do all the truck checks and then shoot the bull before getting to more work.
On the days I get off (work a 24 hr shift) I'll wake up around 630 get dressed, brush teeth, make up my bed and pack my gear up. I then do my chores when is pub patrol (bathroom cleaning) and then vacuum.
The next day, I just wake up whenever and do whatever I want.

I wake up and smash a mosquito dead on my arm, smiling slightly as a result. Then I shave and cut myself slightly in the process, applying a small bit of toilet paper to soak up the blood. After that I cut into some breakfast meat, fry it, and I make some eggs and coffee to go along with it. . . .

I get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night half an hour before I go to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when I get home, my Dad and mother would kill me and dance about on my grave singing Hallelujah.

Up at 6:00am
Get dressed, shave, make my room look nice, eat breakfast, start the car (if it's cold), brush my teeth, deice the car, and go to school. Then I always talk to my Civics and Geography and AP Euro teacher.

current routine:
0645 wake to least-annoying cell phone ringtone, brush teeth, wash face, dress. I shower at night.
0700 check in on forums, nuke some spammers, hand out a few infractions to start the day right
0730 get to work, make coffee
0730-0830 read news, read the forums, and drink coffee all while getting paid to do it
0830 finally start real work
I used to drink coffee and read the news from home before work, but then I realized I could do it from work and get 30 more minutes of sleep each day.
