shoots_kneecaps437. Do you keep to a routine?
As far as the job allows it, yes. Obviously there are days when situations and circumstances make it impossible, but on the days when it doesn't, a routine can be a good thing.
Part of my routine is much easier where I live now -- no more sharing the communal bathroom down the hall or having to go to a gym to do any more extensive workouts than stretches.
Now, once I wake up and deal with necessities, I head upstairs for a full workout -- everything from stretches and some yoga (gotta stay flexible in my line of work, believe me) to weights and a few rounds with the heavy bag. Three days a week I go for a run, too -- though there are times when I have to be very cautious choosing my route. Of course a t-shirt and sweatpants help there, since most of the folks trying to track me are still stuck on the whole 'guy in a suit' thing.
After the run and/or workout, I shower and dress for the day. Sometimes I make breakfast, but most of the time I pick up something on the way to the Library, along with a coffee for me and sometimes a tea for Finch.
Once I get there and get filled in on the latest Number, that's usually the point in the day where routine goes right out the window.

Date: 2012-06-11 08:52 (UTC)[ooc: haha, aww, flatterer! I was looking through the posts and going, oh, man, finch can't answer THAT one, he shouldn't know about that yet, etc etc. amusing.
I think I already asked you this but refresh my poor memory-- do you have/use AIM?]
no subject
Date: 2012-06-11 09:46 (UTC)[ooc: *g* Now I'm curious as to which one got that reaction!
And I do, but not as often as I should be (and not at the current time. Not sure where you are time-zone wise, but it's 5:45am on Monday for me (I have every other Monday off, so my OH & I go completely nocturnal), and I'm still on our screwed up weekend schedule, so I haven't been to bed yet. That, and all IM programs are filtered at work, so I'm not available before about 8pm eastern time. BUT, my AIM ID is uvalpha and my YIM is arkadi_1]

Ahhh yes, crazy schedules. I'm PST myself. Wouldn't mind chatting sometime if I do see you on though!

Date: 2012-06-12 15:26 (UTC)[OOC: Ah, yes. *G* Though now Reese is DYING to know what he really thought of the canary bit...]

Date: 2012-06-12 18:51 (UTC)I'm told patience is a virtue, Mr. Reese.
Don't you have, oh, I don't know, an arsenal of illicit weaponry to maintain and polish? If you're so dreadfully bored I'm certain I can find something for you to do.

Date: 2012-06-12 21:20 (UTC)The word is clean, Finch.
And I've already done that -- though now you mention it, I was low on some of the non-standard ammunition on the last inventory. If you don't have anything important, maybe I'll go ruin some gun runner's day...

Date: 2012-06-12 21:23 (UTC)You'd probably best. My solution was going to be tasking you with removing the spiderwebs from the higher corners of the library's rooms.
no subject
Date: 2012-06-12 22:00 (UTC)Why don't we let the spiders live one more day? Tomorrow I'll even bring that long-handled dusting thing from the loft.
Call me if you need anything. Maybe I'll even pick up some take-out on the way back.
no subject
Date: 2012-06-12 22:23 (UTC)Canaries-- and most other small birds-- are not in the habit of letting spiders live. But since you're advocating for a reprieve...
Mmn. Chicken tikka masala if you happen to be passing any decent Indian places. ...if you don't mind.

[ooc: Reese (like me) isn't exactly the domestic type - 'long-handled dusting thing' is about as good as it gets. I figure Finch was the one who made sure the loft was stocked with cleaning supplies anyway. *g*]
no subject
Date: 2012-06-13 20:13 (UTC)...Be safe, Mr. Reese. *tiny nod as Reese exits*
[OOC: I imagine Harold as such a neat freak, lol. But at the same time HOW DO YOU KEEP THAT LIBRARY CLEAN, FINCH, IT'S HUGE AND YOU ARE BUT ONE MAN.]
yay OOC icon :D
Date: 2012-06-15 04:09 (UTC)LOL - just give him good instructions and he'll do it. He'll probably think up ways to get revenge, but he'll do it.
