My Daily Itinerary

6:41
Hit alarm off or snooze depending on mood.

6:48-7:51
Get ready for work, and depart 10 minutes late.

8:24
Arrive at work.

8:25-9:14
Check local Portland, Oregon forum online and answer the inane posts like "what did you eat yesterday". Annoy forum owner with anti-Republican posts. On long days - as a personal contest - attempt to elicit the most responses with the shortest possible posting. Personal record: 8 responses to a 3 word posting.

9:15-10:47
Work.

10:48-11:28
Check ESPN, CNN and a few other websites. Answer hotmail messages. Check new job listings in all categories in case a job that requires endless internet surfing, creative writing, and a sense of community has materialized. Retire this search with a sense of idle depression, since nothing materializes.

11:29-12:02
Work.

12:03-1:08
Lunch. Either I brought a sandwich, leftovers, or I have to go out and get food.

1:09-2:18
Check my blog and a potentially post a "what happened to me yesterday that sucked" post. Check personal ads on Craiglist. Realize the desperation of most people, laugh at the 80+ year old w4m, feel deep revulsion for married-wanna-be-cheating guys. Check casual encounters out of curiosity, shake head at m4w and their almost assured lack of success, check m4m to see how outrageous they are. Count how many “Strictly Platonic” postings are not. Check “General” and “Activity Partners” for good measure.

2:19-3:31
Work.

3:33-3:41
Ensure a break has been taken. Resist urge to snack on granola bar.

4:13- 4:47
Work briefly, then quickly check Hoopsworld and my blog again to see if comments have been made. Send IM messages to annoy colleagues.

4:48-5:00
Work.

5:01
Go home.

5:18-10:17
Have life*

10:19- 11:28
Answer email that got bumped in lieu of internet-surfing. Yawn, stretch, and go to bed.

11:31-5:32
Sleep.

5:34-5:36
Pee.

5:37-6:40
Sleep.

Repeat.

*Includes friends and outdoor activity, weather permitting. Winter agenda is heavily skewed towards gym/movie/dinner.
