it's tuesday. doesn't get more average than this.

the premise of this thread: bookmark it if you post in it, then check it in a year or so to see if you're still a loser. when i say loser, i assume that you're like me.

on an average day... i wake up around 11:30am, grab a cup of coffee, then take the dog out for a potty. the next two or three hours are spent doing email and checking ebay auctions. i brush my teeth around 3pm. shower? meh. eat something around 5pm. check the want-ads. then maybe go for an espresso type beverage. take a nap. work on thesis until 3 or 4am. so... anyone hiring?

Apart from checking emails/ebay/forums, I have walked the dog, and washed some clothes. OH THE EXCITEMENT.

man this is such a good idea, yet when i look back in a year it will be such a bad idea...

SPOILERS! (Click to view)

wake up sometime before noon. check email etc. eat. watch a movie or play video games. possibly smoke pot first. during. or after. eat again. think about looking for jobs but know at the same time that you're not going to find something you enjoy. smoke cigarettes. do some business. play guitar maybe. text message people. think about killing self. maybe go to mccormicks. if not, maybe drink beer at home. eventually sleep...

I wake up anytime between 1:30 and 4:00 in the afternoon. I lie in bed on the couch cuddling with my cat for an hour or so after I wake up. Check email and SG, but most likely don't respond to new email or my friends' journals. Watch cartoons or shows I recorded the night before. Play with cat. Try to go back to sleep due to boredom and apathy. Think about all the things I should be doing while lying there. Eat my one meal a day around 8:00 or 9:00 in the evening. Watch TV until 11:30pm. Talk on the phone until 5:00am if I'm feeling sociable, if not, then I'll just stay on the internet or watch TV all night. Go to sleep for "the night" between 6:00 and 8:00 in the morning.

Haha! I am a bigger loser than you.

I started taking an anti-depressant five days ago, so hopefully I'll stop being this way. I might even leave the house every now and then. eeek

Each week I take the early morning plane, I work from seven to nine and then on friday I take another one home again, to find no one waiting for me.

isn't there a song about the morning plane or train or something?

i just googled it:



SPOILERS! (Click to view)

I wake up every mornin',
I stumble out of bed
Stretchin' and yawnin',
another day ahead
It seems to last forever,
and time goes slowly by
Till babe and me's together,
then it starts to fly

'Cause the moment that he's with me,
time can take a flight
The moment that he's with me,
everything's alright
Night time is the right time,
we make love
Then it's his and my time, we take off

My panda takes the morning train,
he works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again
to find me waitin' for him


He takes me to a movie,
or to a restaurant, to go
Slow dancing, anything I want
Only when he's with me,
I catch light
Only when he gives me,
makes me feel alright

All day I think of him,
dreamin' of him constantly
I'm crazy mad for him,
and he's crazy mad for me
When he steps off that train,
I'm makin' a fool, a fight
Work all day to earn his pay,
so we can play all night

He's always on that morning train
He works so hard
To find me waiting for him...

Oh, whatever. That should have been "Leaving On A Jet Plane." That's what I immediately thought of, anyway.

And that's what I do on the average Tuesday: listen to "Leaving On A Jet Plane," over and over. By myself, so that I can relate to that "already I'm so lonesome, I could diiieee . . . " line. Best way to spend a day ever.

Oh wow. I may regret this, but here goes. I wake up sometime just before or just after noon, and stare at the ceiling for ten minutes or so, unless my girlfriend comes and wakes me up (usually around the same time or a little earlier). I grab something to eat (usually Ramen unless she brings me something else). I grab a shower and then watch some tv or get on the computer to check the myspace/SG/e-mail and maybe play a video game or something. I eat lunch and perhaps take in a movie. I fuck around a little on the guitar, and then my brother/roommate's friends come over and I might socialize with them for a bit. I eat dinner, and hang with my girlfriend. If I'm good, I get some nookie. Then I'm back to my place with a high likelyhood of getting back on the computer unless (god forbid) I decide on an evening on the town. I turn in around 3 or 4 am and repeat.

I think if it weren't for my girlfriend my life would be devoid of meaning. I probably ought to hit up those want ads...

i wake up. eat something. prep the day's files. get in car and go do 4 appointments usually from 10-2 or so. get home. waste an hour surfing internet and avoiding working on files. settle into a groove with files and watch sporting events or south park or cops reruns or animal planet while i pound out work file which takes from about 5-10 or 8 or midnight. shower and whatever. waste another hour surfing net and watching sportscenter. field several calls from my friend who feels a need to call me every day like he was my girlfriend or something. stare at calenders endlessly deciding which fantasy trips will become reality(domestic) and which are far fetched (international). pas out by 2am. repeat.
