I was thinking about my morning routine, and about how tight my game is, and about how those two things are totally symbiotic. The tighter my game, the more locked down I keep my morning routine, and vice versa. As in, the more locked down I keep my morning routine, the tighter my overall game is. Do you see, they feed into each other. They are co-beneficial and co-dependant, which is what I meant by 'symbiotic'. I hope that makes sense.

Anyway I thought it might be fun to share morning routines, you know, to help each other tighten our games up. It might be fun, but of course, chances are swapping information about the most mindlessly mechanical portion of the day could just be a giant bummer, like mikee, and totally lay waste to the thursday thrill that's rumbling like a drag strip in our collective underpants. I don't know man. I'm just flapping the flannel - spilling the shampoo, dig.

my piece of shit morning routine

  • 7.55 alarm - snooze
  • 8.20 get up
  • - find ipod, put in dock
  • - turn on computer
  • either A) boil kettle or B) clean and refill coffee pot and put on stove, turning heat up to '4'.
  • login to computer
  • shower (Shampoo, rinse, conditioner, then body wash, then conditioner out)
  • refresh the podcast view in itunes
  • either A) re-boil kettle or B) turn off stove
  • re-sync ipod
  • turn on iron
  • Make coffee
  • retrieve ipod, put in dock in kitchen, start listening to podcast
  • begin ironing and drinking coffee
  • once shirt is done, put on clothes
  • quick look at internet
  • finish coffee
  • computer off
  • 9.10 - leave house.

That's how it goes, every morning when I'm going into work. It never changes. It's always in that order.

That's how I keep my shit locked up tight down.

You?

  • leave house at 4:55 or so

Yeah, showering the night before is no substitute, especially when you spend the entire night wracked by fearsweats.

this is good though - this is online collaboration. We're helping ralph. He's tightened his game to the point where shit is no longer locked down- it's overtightened, like a pre-teen. Ralp,h you need to slacken your game. You're one step away from putting on your school uniform before you go to bed, like my bro did back in the 80s, lol.

lol, I used to go to bed in my rowing gear when I was at uni and had a 6.30a.m. meeting the following morning - in which case it was:

6.15 wake up
6.16 go to loo on way to bike shed
6.18 get on bicycle
6.25 arrive at gate to Christchurch Meadows
6.26 climb gate
6.30 arrive at boathouse.

My game is perfect. Perfect! Not a single second wasted. I don't even use the loo until I get to the office. I'm not wasting my time when I can waste company time. Out the door at 2-2:30, home by 3-3:30, plenty of daylight hours to spend working on the house or playing with the kids. ralph = tight

6AM - Get woken by my partner, and, I'm pleased to say, lover's alarm going off.
6.15AM - Rusty gets out of bed. Goes to shower. I spread my shit right across the double bed and lock it down tight.
6.45AM - Get a goodbye kiss, wakes me up again, think about popping a cap in her ass but let it pass and go back to sleep.
8.00AM - Alarm goes off. Hit snooze repeatedly, idly masturbate until...
8.30AM - Get out of bed, pour a pint of water, drink it, whilst locking my piss down real tight in the toilet bowl.
8.35AM - Get in shower - genitals, pits, face. Wash off.
8.45AM - Dry myself whilst sitting in lounge staring blankly at records.
8.55AM - Make bed, shut window.
9.00AM - Get dressed, put work shirt in Bag, cycling t shirt on.
9.10AM - Leave house, lock the doors down tight, shut the shit.

That's some tight morning shit yo. And a lot less smelly than Ralph.

I masturbate in my sleep. Can't help it. Many a night I'm woken by cold, only to discover the duvet blasted onto the floor by a particularly potent shell of he goo and a little tell tale tadpole finger bowl wibbling away in my belly button.

Most mornings, I wake up humming and crispy as an overdone kipper.

Not used to genuine questions. Kinda freaked me out, but thanks for asking. No major changes to speak of -- all I'm trying to do at this point is get the second floor winter-proof (insulated) so this winter we'll be able to use the entire house. But stay tuned for an update to the The house that ralph built thread -- I hope to post something there in the next few weeks that will surely be good for the boards, if not opening myself up to more of the usual ridicule.

Four legged miniature whores with S&M tongues and no scruples.

You had special clothes for having arguments in?

Sometimes I really regret not going to "uni".

Just by typing my routine this morning is a clear indication of just how not locked down my shit actually is, but i'm going to Wales today, so my routine is not mandatory.

Anyway, here's the routine if you want to be seriously in the zone, like me:

  • 07.29 - Pre-emptive alarm deactivation
  • 07.35 - Turn on TV, usually watch news, but at the moment, Olympics.
  • 07.45 - Make tea and breakfast, then retreat back to bed
  • 08.00 - Shit, Shower, trim fashionable face hair, brush teeth and if i'm feeling daring, floss.
  • 08.20 - Get dressed
  • 08.30 - Try to find security pass, and phones
  • 08.35 - Make bed
  • 08.40 - Finally leave for work
  • 08.50 - Get to work, make tea.
