What is your morning ritual?

I have a morning ritual that I need to share. I call it “the terminator”. First I crouch down in the shower in the classic “naked terminator traveling through time” pose. With my eyes closed I crouch there for a minute, visualizing either Arnold or the guy from the second movie (not the chick in the third one because that one sucked) and I start to hum the terminator theme. Then I slowly rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me to proceed through my day as an emotionless, cyborg bada$$. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It ruins the fantasy.

Great, now I have to put out my mind's eye . . .

Damn. Once you've read it, you can't UN-read it! Make it stop!
 
That was funny, sad and quite frankly a little scary. Hey Scottwax, layoff sniffing the products... ;)



I did laugh out loud. :spit:
 
Wow Scott....Is this the stuff you come up with when your stressed about Lotus paint burn? Kinda scary....but maybe I need to try that!
 
Dude...that had me laughing so hard at my desk. I actually read it more than once and just kept laughing each time I read it. The comment about the shower curtain sticking to your leg has me laughing as I type this. It's that little detail in the story that proves you REALLY do that ritual each morning in the shower. Which makes it all the funnier



I trust you're a top notch detailer, but you should look into standup for other work.



friggin hilarious, thanks...

I sometimes practice my karate moves (very carefully) while showering. They're really more like mini karate moves since the shower is really small and I can't get any full limb extensions. No mishaps yet aside from knocking things off shelves.



After that, I turn on the TV and do sit ups, push ups and stretching while watching the news and use the commercial time to get ready for work.



Then it's the commute to the office. I usually stop in the kitchen on the way and make myself a bowl of oatmeal. Then make my way through the dining room, through the living room to the front door to grab the WSJ and then finally into the office.
