If you're going to go to the trouble of talking to someone every morning, you might as well see their face:

Seth found that his mood the next day was significantly improved if he saw enough faces the previous morning. There was a LessWronger that posted somewhere that this trick helped him a lot, but I can't remember who or where right now.
I see quite a lot of faces in the morning already. Maybe not early enough? Though I'm pretty skeptical; it looks like it'd work best for extroverted neurotypicals, and I'm neither. I added it to the list of tricks, but I'll try others first.
We've had these for a year, I'm sure we all know what to do by now.
