Mornings are my Nemesis

I don't do well in the mornings. I am not a coffee person so I don't do stimulants to wake me up. I am not a friendly, happy person in the morning. I function on a very low level. If you ask me a direct question I will answer it but I will not "chat" or engage in any sort of social bonding type behaviour. I will do things that NEED to be done but I will not be happy or upbeat about it. 
Apparently I have never been a morning person even as a child, I wasn't very happy to get out of bed to go to school even at 6 years old. I could blame it on my insomnia but the weird thing is I am more cheerful if I have to get up extremely early (say 4-4:30 in the morning) than I am getting up anytime after 6 am. 
As I said earlier I don't do chatting or such things when I get up in the morning. Some people don't seem to get that. Even if I don't answer or give short curt answers. I guess you have to live with me to get that. Let me amend that last statement ...live with me and be an aware person. Most of my exes know this and my family know I am a grump in the morning. The more you force yourself on me (unless it is truly necessary) the more owly I will get. 
So unless it is something important  (like a death or some such event) or a simple question (like do you know if...) I may not answer you. 
I also do not believe in the statement, GOOD Morning (morning will suffice) or the question How are you this morning? (It is morning how do you think I feel). 
That is my rant for now...I suck at mornings!! LOL!

As someone who is really and truly a morning person, I honestly don't understand. My poor sister is the same way, mornings are never good, so things can be a bit tense in the AMs. After hearing your side (all I get are grunts from her) I'll try and keep quiet and keep your comments in mind next breakfast.
