6.30am: Alarm gets smacked on the head … this is where I’ve dragged myself out of.
It’s still dark outside and I’m having a good grumble about having to get up, as usual =)

Stumble through to the kitchen to make school lunch for Son#1. Attempt to rouse him …

Back to bed to check what’s happening on Facebook and in Twitterville. Cuddle bunny wants love.

Go back to haul Son#1 out of bed. It’s 7.15am now … back to bed to wait for the bathroom.
Cuddle bunny immediately hops on top of me again.
My other Burmese baby joins in the morning love session =) Sweet hey?

7.45am: bathroom is finally free. Son#1 is off to school and I can jump into the tub.
There’s no light in the bathroom, hence the candle!

Back in my room, shoot … I STILL haven’t sorted out that box!

Stare blankly at my cupboard.
Complain to the universe that I have “absolutely NOTHING to wear!”

Eventually decide on something …

Quick check in the mirror to make sure I haven’t put my bra on over my top or something
(yes, I’ve done that before wahaha!)
Urgh … more boxes that need to be sorted …

8.30am: And this is the pooh part – I now have to spend an AGE drying my hair!

Time for the war paint *sigh* what a pain in the bum to have to do this every day.

Oh dear … Sir G has pulled up outside … I must be running late … AGAIN!

SHIT!!

Mmk, I’m done with all the primping and preening – time to work …

Check out my To Do List *freak out*

Feeling a tad fluey – gonna have to take some of this …

Browse through my iTunes library, decide to kick the day off with some 3 Doors Down.
And off we go!!

That’s my morning so far =)

  1. Now if you really want to be on the ball you should keep the photos and updates going throughout the day using a FriendFeed stream derived from photo and text posts. Almost like a image/text based day stream a la Twitter. If you really want to be on the ball, link in Seesmic videos shot using your iSight on your Mac for quick updates …

  2. justB[coz] says:

    @Paul WOW!! That’s a cool idea :D I’ll think about doing that on a day when I’m not chained to my desk – that would be a bit boring methinks.

    Videos? No way!! – I left my thoughts about that on Chris’ iMod site – the Playboy post … http://imod.co.za/2008/07/13/playboy-brings-us-9-of-the-sexiest-woman-bloggers/

  3. This is an awesome post…. random, but still awesome!

  4. There is a lot that can be done with what sits right in front of you. TheiSight camera can be a lot of fun. I just started messing around with Photo Booth and I want to play a little more with Seesmic. Think of this as an addon to Twitter …

  5. justB[coz] says:

    @Justin … Hellooooo!! How you doing? And cool, thanks!

    @Paul … Not for me, no thank you! It was tough enough for me to plonk just a static image of myself up here a few days ago, hehe

  6. SheBee says:

    Can I just say, your bathroom looks sooo inviting.

    Your cats are cute too. For cats.

  7. I just saw your comment on the Playboy post. I don’t think it is such a leap to video posts from something like Twitter. Besides, a short video of you opining on some or other topic could be pretty interesting. Take a look at Seesmic, give it a try.

  8. SheBee says:

    I have to second Paul on that one, if I had the time and equipment (read: internet connection) I would be a vlogger, no doubt.

  9. justB[coz] says:

    I’m way too shy :D

  10. leez says:

    Okay. Something different for today.

    What got me is how freakin organised you are!!! you have like lists and stuff.

  11. Sir G says:

    I could never have a camera. Way too distracting. Handpuppets would become a given, nothing would get done.

  12. leez says:

    okay. had a second look at its freakish. everything is in its place. except for the bed there is nothing, nothing out of place.

  13. justB[coz] says:

    @leez … you’re kidding, right? Have you SEEN all those bloody boxes everywhere?! GROANINGS …

  14. SheBee says:

    hahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

    He’s right. Its all perfect.

    I would like to be the first one to congratulate you on being dubbed:

    ANAL BLOGGER OF THE DAY.

  15. justB[coz] says:

    *sigh* clean your contacts Bee!

  16. StevenMcD says:

    wow, hectic morning! Love the cats though!

  17. justB[coz] says:

    @Steven … aren’t they gorjis? Love them to bits – they are such good company, just loaded with personality and love!

  18. leez says:

    I saw the boxes but that is not the best argument to make. The clothes are actually *folded* in the boxes!! Folded!! Mine are in the cupboard and even they’re not folded.

    They are of course colour coded: Green and Non-Green.

  19. justB[coz] says:

    @leez mmk, I’m gonna give up dude :D

    My OCD self absolutely DEMANDS that all my stuff be IN the cupboard, folded and colour co-ordinated! Having things stuffed into boxes is pure torture for me (SheBee: don’t go there! I am not anal!!! Martha Stewart is anal, I’m her total opposite!)

  20. SaulK says:

    I’d just like to know why you wake up at 6:30! It’s a little early during those cold Cape Town winters!

  21. justB[coz] says:

    @SaulK … tell me about it! It’s FAR too early for me to be awake! I update my Facebook status with a good ol’ bitch about that nearly every day hahaha!

    I do sleep in a bit during the holidays though, when I don’t have to make lunches, or wake up sleepy teens to go to school, or wait for the bathroom :-)
