Thanks to Loran for writing in with today's theme.

Since we've been camping in the woods of Wisconsin and we had various fill-in hosts last week due to summer schedules, we're finally back to our normal morning lineup today.

So for today's 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs do you want to hear that describe any part of the morning ritual?

We're talking waking up, coffee, breakfast, walking the dog, etc. Give us the goods!

Respond with your song ideas in the comments below.
