SO in the morning when you get up and need to go to work, assuming that there is not a massively important meeting*, can you get to work at a specific time?
Does your morning disintegrate into: yes, don’t have to be at work for two… three hours; I can make my breakfast; nice breakfast, coffee, toast; Ooooooooooh; what shall I have, I know Ham… no… peanut butter, CHEEEEEESE. Oh right, check the fridge the door is DEF. closed. Okay, toast. Got toast got breakfast. Right – tele on. Pick a tv programme – pick a movie? Computer on. NEWS! Watch telly; play on computer; write fic. Oh, eat breakfast. Ao3. Dreamwidth. LJ. Tumblr. Write fic. Checks watch. Loads of time. Work in 1.5 hours. This is doable. PotterPOtterPotter. Whoops. Time for ablutions. Cleanliness. Clothes. What clothes? Those clothes. SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIITE – pick default. Packed Lunch? Food – yes. Okay, fridge. Did you prep something on Sunday for the rest of the week? No/yes. Procrastination/distractibility linked to this decision on Sunday. Check time. DAMNITALL TO HELL. Move fast. What about the dishes? Leave them. No/yes – depends. Check clock? DAMN IT ALL TO HELL. Got to get out of the house. Packed lunch. Excellent packed lunch constructed. Check clock. Buggery! Gather up detritus. Shall I water the plants yes/no? Maybe.
Is the gas burner off? IS the fridge door closed? Is the telly on/ Checks. Did you check the gas burner? Check. Glance at clock. OMG. You’ve got to leave. Looks at dishes in sink. Hey, that floor could do with a vacuum.
FFS
Rinse and repeat every single *&*%ing morning, for my entire adult life. I had a parent chivvying me out the door as a small person.
Does anyone else do this?
* massively important meeting? 75/25 chance you’ll be on time. You’re not going to be early - ever.
