We go downstairs, I get him juice, I pee, I get the other kid juice, I go get various dogs out of various nighttime boxes and they go pee, I watch them b/c even though they're all girls, they all cock their legs and mark over the others' pee, and then I get on the computer. Every morning. Pretty glamorous, I know.Ok, Where Was I?https://www.blogger.com/profile/05621866473093750888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28627451.post-27781770202196932172008-05-02T11:26:00.000-05:002008-05-02T11:26:00.000-05:00It made me sad that you pointed out that Chipotle ...It made me sad that you pointed out that Chipotle burritos are not, in fact, good for you. I like to think they are healthy despite all evidence to the contrary. Rice! Beans!

I enter my office, say good morning to my assistant, put my coffee on my desk and turn on my computer. Then I take off my coat, put away my purse etc. while the computer warms up. I check email first, ask my assistant for any urgent matters that have come up, then check my voicemail last (hate the voicemail). This is my lame routine every. single. morning.LoriDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07646658618955664778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28627451.post-25123893568907113142008-05-01T17:29:00.000-05:002008-05-01T17:29:00.000-05:00Heh. You make me miss work sometimes. Sometimes....Heh. You make me miss work sometimes. Sometimes.<BR/><BR/>Um. I hit the snooze for a complete HOUR's worth before I finally get up, wake up kid A and then nag her all morning to eat, pack lunch (she insists on doing it herself, and who am I to argue?), brush her teeth and hair, and then get out the door to get on the bus. While I am sitting on the couch reading and sipping my coffee with french vanilla creamer. Then I get Kid B and C up and they eat--while I'm still reading on the couch.<BR/><BR/>I tell myself EVERY DAY that I will actually make it up with the first, maybe even the SECOND, alarm and actually get a shower in BEFORE the chaos begins, but it never happens. Am pathetically lazy.CAQuincyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11821192974215349171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28627451.post-17536042431222737642008-05-01T17:15:00.000-05:002008-05-01T17:15:00.000-05:00I have NO IDEA what you are talking about re: cand...I have NO IDEA what you are talking about re: candy bars. ::nervous laughter:: um, yeah.

Gah.<BR/><BR/>When I don't have a co-worker eagerly awaiting me to PRINT SOMETHING for them (they are all convinced that my networked computer is somehow different than their own networked computers and that I can [magically] get shit to print...???), I do this:<BR/><BR/>Toss my purse and gym bag under my desk with my left hand while turning on my computer with my right hand. Unless - the computer is on because I compulsively backed the entire hard drive up the night before, in which case I swirl the mouse around to wake it up and then hang up my coat. <BR/><BR/>Say hello to the two, sometimes three co-workers hanging out in my office. (COZY)<BR/><BR/>Snag my coffee mug (the same travel mug I've had since I was a sophomore in college) and head down the hall to the kitchen to clean it out before filling 'er right back up with jet fuel.<BR/><BR/>Then, open Outlook but totally ignore it, open my personal e-mail, then Google Reader. <BR/><BR/>The opening of these programs is as close as I get to a routine. It is usually at this point when all hell breaks loose in my day.artemisiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12048259618106957687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28627451.post-89261932600488252572008-05-01T13:22:00.001-05:002008-05-01T13:22:00.001-05:00I try and switch it up so life doesn't become dull...I try and switch it up so life doesn't become dull.

On a perfect day, I log in, check my work emails, work, then check my iGoogle page (I have 4 tabs of blogs - much easier to see at a glance what's new than Google Reader, IMO).<BR/><BR/>BTW, I ate a half-eaten Kit Kat that I discovered in my car console yesterday that had been there for over a week.

So funny.<BR/><BR/>Every morning, I get my Launchcast (internet radio) going, then check my work email, then check my voicemails (HATE), then check my personal email, then my Google Analytics, THEN my Google Reader, and then I post. UHH. I only deviate if I get horribly, horribly distracted.Tesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18085712930407611861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28627451.post-87512789860778159242008-05-01T11:45:00.000-05:002008-05-01T11:45:00.000-05:00I have a whole little bizarre OCD routine in the m...I have a whole little bizarre OCD routine in the morning. I get into the office, turn on my computer immediately because it takes forever to boot up, hang up my coat and turn on lights while I wait to enter my password, then put my purse away and change my shoes (I commute to work in flip flops when it's warm out) while it logs me in. <BR/><BR/>Then I fill out my time card from the day before, check my work email, check my personal email, post, and check my Google Reader. In that order.<BR/><BR/>Wow, I'm a creature of habit, huh?Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15942269316108576622noreply@blogger.com
