Friday Five – August 1st, 2003

Time for this weeks Friday Five, which is about one of my most favorite past-times. Sleeping!!!
1. What time do you wake up on weekday mornings?
Since I’m still living life like a graduate student I don’t get up until 9:30 am. May seem late in the morning but I stay up until midnight to 1:00 am most night (if not later). I know I know. At some point I’ll have to get a real job and enter the real world but not quite yet!
2. Do you sleep in on the weekends? How late?
It all depends what I did the night before. A lot of nights I stay up until 2 or 3 in the morning and I like to get 8 to 9 hours of sleep meaning I’ll get up between 11 or noon. Though sometimes my body doesn’t cooperate and it wakes me up earlier.
3. Aside from waking up, what is the first thing you do in the morning?
On weekdays I take a shower and then head off to work. It takes me about 15 minutes to get read in the morning. On the weekends I like to get up and watch cartoons or goof around on the computer. Depending on when I get up and what cartoons are on.
4. How long does it take to get ready for your day?
See question 3. 15 minutes on the weekdays – several hours on the weekend since I like to just lazy around unless I have something I really have to do and then maybe 15 minutes again. Depends what it is.
5. When possible, what is your favorite place to go for breakfast?
Hmmm. There is a little greasy spoon type place back home called Kathy’s Kitchen or something like that which is quite good. In Waterloo there is a place called the Family Restaurant which has a good breakfast or a place called Mel’s Diner which is quite good (but the lineups in the morning are crazy). Though I’ll usually go with the flow and go where everyone else wants to go.
Alright now I sleep. I’m moving this weekend into my one bedroom apartment. I hate moving. I’m not going to have internet access from the new apartment for a while (since I’m going to Scotland for two weeks starting August 8th and I don’t want to pay for utilities while I’m gone). I will post for a little at work next week but I already know it is going to be crazy. I’ll let you all know about my plans then.
