Describe your most ideal day from beginning to end.
Well that’s a bold faced lie.
Ok, yes, mine is infused with coffee. Magic bean juice. The elixir of adult life.
Ok, back to topic. My ideal day:
Step 1. Coffee. Duh. Double espresso with some half and half. Feed the beasts their wet-food offerings.
Step 2. Get moving. Yes, the aforementioned potion provides brain wakieness, but the body must also enter the phase of activity. I love my treadmill. Daughter asked me to purchase it, but has never made an attempt to mount its glorious hamster wheel of activity.
Step 3. Rouse the young sir. Yeah, that’s all I have for that one.
Step 4. Provide sustenance and vestments for said sir. Make sure he has snacks and a trombone if applicable, boot him out the door.
Step 5. Shower and reapply some level of pajamas. This is my fantasy world. Here, we wear pj’s for work.
Step 6. Get down to some hard core writing. Yeah. That’s it right there. Fantasy. Horror. Science fiction. “Adult themed”. All of that has its place in my domain of The Word.
Step 7. Snacky-poo. Food if fuel!!
Step 8. Edit something that has previously been written. Well, yeah.
Repeat some of those above things until the rather irritating squeak of the garage door signals that the other full-sized human is home.
Somewhere there is dinner. Relaxing, which lately has involved watching “Elementary”. It’s quite good, btw.
Spend some time agonizing over 5th grade homework. Seriously, new math is shit.
Prepping for sleepy time and then sleep.
That’s my ideal Monday- Friday.
I could probably creative it up, but as I’m currently actually in step 2, that’s what I have.
Be awesome, folks! Take care of each other. 💜
