Physically stiff in the morning. Causes me to walk with a funny stiff-hipped walk (penguin-ish?). The funny walk goes away in 20-30 minutes, but the stiffness lasts for 2-3 hrs. But my mind wakes up nearly instantly-don't need caffeine. May be tired, but I'm alert. (And the world needs more lerts!)
