Wake up. Hit the alarm a few times. Girlfriend says, tiredly "5 more minutes?" and I usually oblige. Check (android) phone for messages that came in overnight, usually getting distracted by Gmail + Facebook notification emails in the process. Coffee + RSS while she showers. "Begin the triple-S and wash the previous evening off me".

That last bit is from a song I love, for the record: Atmosphere - Like Today

  Woke up, got up, near eleven o'clock
  butt naked except I was wearing my socks
  and that's cool, 'cause most the time this floor is cold
  stand up and stretch look around this mess
  my place has been a cage since she left me
  make my way to the kitchen, start the coffee
  then dip to the bathroom, begin the triple-s
  and wash the previous evening off me
  now out the shower, get dry, shove a q-tip in my ear
  well, what do we have here?
  it appears as if a piece of me has got motivation
  ain't nothin' wrong with a little morning masturbation
  fresh, dressed like fifty cents
  clean and awake now I'm ready to commence
  spark up the caffeine and nicotine binge
  and that's pretty much the pattern of how the day begins
Wonder how different it would be had it been recorded 5 years later... Sure the internet was around in 2001, but aside from geeks, I don't think it was part of everyone's daily routine yet.
