    I work a weird shift, so my “morning” begins at about noon

    • Alarm goes off, hit snooze a couple times
    • Scroll Lemmy, news, check my messages, etc
    • Shower, brush my teeth, shave my head if needed, get dressed
    • Walk the dog
    • Breakfast, make coffee, pack lunch, feed the dog her lunch (wife gives her breakfast at normal human wakeup times)
    • If it’s a work day, I’m out the door by about 1:45, at work by about 2:15, start at 2:30

    Then at the end of the day

    • Leave work at 2:30, home by about 3:00AM
    • Walk the dog
    • Maybe eat dinner if I’m hungry
    • More scrolling or some video games until about 5, sometimes as early as 4, sometimes as late as 6
    • Brush teeth
    • Undress
    • Feel around in the dark for whatever boobytraps my wife has left in the bed for me- laptop, phone, glasses, Kindle, charging cables, etc. and put them wherever they go
    • Crawl into bed, contort myself around the dog, hug the wife
    • Sleep

    On days I don’t work, the overall sequence of events stays mostly the same except I usually don’t usually drink coffee or pack a lunch on my days off, but the times may shift a few hours in any direction. Breakfast gets more elaborate on my days off, and I’m less likely to have a “dinner” since I probably had a big meal for lunch/my wife’s dinner instead of the usual sandwich I pack for work.
