The Ideal (Real) Work Day
08:00 - 09:00 (or 10:00 - 11:00): Waking Up
Includes getting up from the bed, lighting the first cig of the day, figuring out what to wear, taking a shower, having two cups of coffee, lighting the second cig of the day, turning the computer on, and a lot of staring into space, while lighting the third and fourth cigs of the day.
First POP for the day, respond to emails sent while I was asleep, sending out the first messages for the day.
10:00 - 12:00 (12:00 - 14:00): Work Mode
Wherein I will control the urge to check my email so I can focus on my offline work, specifically those that require weeding through and drafting long texts. Activities here will be focused on my work priorities (look at the two screens).
12:00 - 14:00 (14:00 - 16:00): Fun Time
Will include a meal, a few cig sticks, and any of the following activities:
reading a book
watching a dvd
calling up friends and spending two hours on the phone with them
Second POP for the day, respond to emails that were sent while I was in Work Mode and Fun Time.
15:00 - 18:00 (17:00 - 20:00): Work Mode
Again, fighting the urge to POP mail so I can focus on work that requires writing and / or spreadsheet-ing something, based on my work priorities (look at the two screens).
18:00 - 00:00 (20:00 - 02:00): Fun Time
Will include dinner, a few cig sticks (maybe stronger smoke-able stuff), and any of the following activities:
Last email check for the day, to keep me from tossing and turning in bed, wondering if I missed anything important. If I don't do this, it will affect the next part of my Ideal Day.
01:00 (03:00): I Dream of Johnny
Now we come to the biggest incentive for maintaining this kind of daily schedule as much as possible: getting a good night's sleep so I can dream of Johnny Depp. Will also include a shower and the 7-step skin regimen to be presentable to Johnny, and reading a book so Johnny and I will have something to talk about.
