i keep emergency peanuts in my car for when i start to get tired. nuts are awesome.

I would excercise. A nice workout wakes me right up. If you are still tired, take a shower. It wakes you up, and leaves you feeling refreshed! You could even swash around some strong mouthwash. It often helps too. Good luck!
