"In a few sentences, describe your breakfast routine."
Routine? There isn't much of one....
Or, at the very least there are several very different ones. It depends on how early I have to get up.
1. Working at 5pm and nothing scheduled to do until then (hurrah!).
- I will get up at some point before 12. Hopefully 10.30/11 ish. I will come downstairs in my dressing gown and slippers (even in summer), with a book. I will make myself a pot of tea and sit in Sebastian (my wicker chair) with my feet on the coffee table and read until lunch. I will probably then have lunch and might then call my parents and at some point in the conversation inform them that I am not (properly) dressed yet. (To this, they will say, 'Oh Jax'.)
2. I have to get somewhere by 9, 10, or 11.
- I will get up one hour before that time. This gives me half and hour to get up, go downstairs, make a cup of tea, bring it, turn on Radio 1 (although this station might be changed as I've now become so old I hate almost all new music), dress, go downstairs, breakfast of some sort, up again, clean teeth, down again: leave. I walk to wherever it is. (P.S. I normally set my alarm 1/2 an hour before and then re-set it to varying times until I eventually have to get up. This is because re-setting wakes me up more than snoozing it, so gradually I become accustomed to the idea of getting out of my bed.)
3. I have to be somewhere some time hideous like 6/7 am. Sometimes I might get up super-early out of paranoia and the fact I just haven't slept. But more likely I will leave myself 15 minutes to dress and clean teeth, and then bring some kind of food item to eat as breakfast once I'm there.
