    ?

      I think the second one sounds right. With "A".

            The expression is unclear to me...

            Care to elaborate?

                    Woke up with a morning glory would infer you fell asleep in the flower bed

                      Or you woke up with someone who has a morning glory

                      If I was going to say it, it'd probably be "with a", as just "with" sounds like you woke up next the hooker you forgot you payed for last night.
