Default A day in my life

I'm really bored at work right now so I have decided to share with you guys my typical day. I dont really care if anybody enjoys it or even reads it for that matter but here goes...

So I wake up every morning at 8:30am. I usually hit the snooze button 2 or 3 times. I have my snooze set to 10 minutes which I have found is just enough time to fall back to sleep for exactly 3 minutes before my blackberry decides to harass me again. Sometimes after the third snooze, I will read the news on my phone but usually I stumble out of bed and hop in the shower.

I'm a big fan of head and shoulders shampoo. I dont know why but I am. I think it has something to do with the diagram of damaged hair that is plastered all over the back of the bottle. Sometimes when I get really bored, I read the ingredients list on the bottle. Its amazing what goes into shampoo. I also love ivory soap but only because it floats. Usually im too lazy to clean out my drain so lots of water backs up and it turns my shower / tub into a lake so floating ivory soap is perfect!

After the shower, I dry off with a white Nautica towel that I bought at Bed Bath and Beyond. I bought this towel a year ago when it was on sale. I found that towels take about a year to break in and this Nautica towel is no different. Again im not really sure why, but I think it has something to do with the detergent I use which actually happens to be Arm&Hammer (it has baking soda in it), but that is a whole different story. I then proceed to shave. I only use the finest quality Gilette Sensor Excel razor with Barbasol shaving cream. I even have one of those little things that makes the shaving cream hot (probably the best investment I have ever made). I tend to shave against the grain because it leads to a closer shave. I'm all about the closeness.

When shaving is finished, its time to get dressed! I'm usually too lazy to do any ironing the night before, so I tend to do it all in the morning before I leave for work. I always iron my pants and usually my shirts unless its my Verizon Wireless Data Certified shirt (I work for Verizon Wireless btw) which is a wrinkle free polo. I only have one of these shirts because Verizon Wireless is a cheap whore. But after my clothing is warm and wrinkle free, I holster up the blackberry and grab my man bag containing my laptop, special pens that I dont let customers or coworkers use, and my H&K USP Compact. Then its out the door and to the car!

My commute to work is usually a joy in the s2k, but since it has been in the shop for the past 3.5 weeks, I have been driving my pos VW passat. I swear to everything holy that this car is the biggest rolling piece of shit ever. Nothing on this car works. Even the radio is broken. I can no longer listen to Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh on my way to the salt mines! WTF! The drive to work should take about 30 minutes at the speed limit (combination of 55 and 65mph). When I take the s, I cut that down to 18 minutes unless there is traffic or accidents. It seems like every 30 seconds some retard launches his camry into oncoming traffic killing 20 or 30 people and then backing traffic up for miles.

ok I have a customer so I will continue this shortly...

I actually prefer these types of posts in terms of informational value. Informational/news re-hash offenders on this site should take note. Keep going we need more...

Thanks for the warning. That was really uninformative and boring. I'll not read further, that is unless I'm really bored.
