So what do I do every day? Well on a work day it goes something like this: At 6:10 the alarm goes off (CBC, yes I’m getting old). I listen to the chatter on there for 10-30 minutes before struggling out of bed and into the bathroom where I clean my teeth and jump under our fabulous rain shower. That wakes me up, then I throw on some clothes (smart-ish casual), kiss my snoozling wife goodbye and run (well ok walk) downstairs. If I’m in the mood I’ll throw together a sandwich for my lunch, with some fruit and whatever other snacky stuff we have.
At about 7:05 I leave the house, walking to the end of the street where the train station is, to jump on the 7:20 train to Montreal. I have the laptop on the train so I either watch a movie (Apocalypse Now Redux this morning) or work on some web stuff. That keeps me occupied until the train arrives in Montreal. From there its a 20 minute walk to the office.
The rest of the day is spent working on the university financial systems, until around 4 when I leave for the train journey home. I get home at about 5:20, greeted by Jen, relax for a bit, wander around our lovely garden, hang out on the deck. At some point we have dinner before vegging out in front of the tv, or finding something more exciting to do. Like Scrabble(tm).
A couple of chapters of a book in bed, then its time for sleep.
That’s it. A day in the life of me. Weekends are different of course, but they’re too random to give you an average description. I’ll just keep you informed when we do something fun.
