My day went well. I woke up to the alarm clock for the first time in a week or so. Lately I've been waking up a couple hours before the alarm and not getting back to sleep. I worked 7am-4pm, and then came home to check my e-mails and such. My kids will get home soon, and I'll make them dinner. We'll then watch a movie, then I'll have them shower and brush their teeth. After that I'll read to them for about half an hour and tuck them in their beds. I'll then check my e-mails again and clean up a bit before retiring for the evening myself. Thus is the daily life of a single father in the US. That what you were looking for?

This morning I went out to breakfast with two of my friends. Then I went out later with my family where I bought the book Everybody Hurts (A Guide To Emo Culture). I thought it was suposed to be a humor book, turns out it's not, but it's damn funny anyway. Then I went to starbucks with Jaymie who saw her neighbor who happened to be with the guy i was OBSESSED with (and he knew very well about my obsession) like 4 years ago. I sat awkwardly with them for about an hour. Now I'm doing more homework.

It's 112 degrees in L.A. so I've just been sweating, showering, and napping all day. It's somewhat cooling down now so I think I'll hit up the mall and shop my summer heatwave blues away. We need AC in my house. It's almost too hot to move!

i woke up around 1 pm. yeah, i'm seriously a creature of the night. i like knowing i'm awake when everyone one else is asleep. anyways, i went car shopping with my dad and brother. my parents are somehow trying to compensate for making me transfer universities and having me live back at home again. yeah, i don't see it working. afterwards, my brother and i went out for dinner and passed by this concert venue with this obscenely long line wrapping around the place. we find out incubus is playing. oh, fuck. in our defense, we kinda sorta just moved here and don't know of anything going on in town...kinda. so now it's 7:20 PM and i have a large amount of reading to do for class tomorrow. oh well.

Can I sum up what happened yesterday instead? (It was more interesting than today). We decided to have a party because it was a really beautiful day. So I woke up, cut the grass, cleaned the house, put lots of beer on ice. Then the party started. We played KOL most of the night, and then my sister started to make fun of the way Caleb sings. I then poured beer on her head. It was a fun party.

Well...I woke up at 11, went to the student union across the street to use the computer and talk to you wonderful people for awhile, came home, went to the grocery store with my roommates, helped move my other roommate in, planned a cookout, called every friend I could think of...proceeded to cook hamburgers, brats, make potato salad, etc...had a giant party with said friends and food. Cleaned up after party, and now I'm sitting on my porch with my roommates stealing wireless internet from the engineering library. Tomorrow is my first day of classes, so I think I'm going to go to bed soon as to not be too dead for them.

im in high school- must i say more?? so im on the Board, "talking to you lovely people", lol, as a means of avoiding any homework- and yet i have the nerve to bitch, whine and complain about having 100 things to do for school.... i shall make up a lie- my arse has fallen asleep, so i cannot remove myself to do something productive... im gonna go on to perezhilton.com (yes, my life is that dull hahahaha) after this, though! perhaps the most eventful part of my shitty day... i have nothing to share except for one of my best mates, who i have the shits with (long story), was absent from school- thank the lord! u know those airy fairy people who say mean/offensive shit out loud to you and get away with it coz people like me ignore it coz they know if they bring it up (altho they have so many examples to give) they will look stupid OR it will be disregarded coz this friend thinks they are so perfect, and they cannot do anything wrong?? well thats me, so i was extremely happy she was away today!! VERY AWESOME THREAD IDEA---KARMA TO THE INVENTOR--- i always find myself asking people how their day was, so i hope this thread doesnt die out! ! ! i shall comment again on the weekend, im sure i will have more exciting things to say (Silverchair + Powderfinger concert on saturday- YAY!!) laters! ps... i love reading ur responses!!

Thought I put real life visuals to it, to make my boring day a bit more interesting . I got up at 06:30 PM !!! went to school, got boring lessons (except in English class, we talked about John Lennon being one of the most important people of the world in the 20st century) Then we had lunch at the castle nearby our school I could skip the last hour, 'cause my teacher wasn't there, and now I'm home early, not in the mood to do my homework ...

normal schoolday - got up at 7, caught the bus at 8, school started at 9. during the day i had two tests and got constantly slagged off about my hair (which i've grown long(ish). had a good bit of craic at break - mostly those crazy 1st years go crazy while me and the lads watched and laughed. school finished - was home by 5 , had my homework finished by 9:30 (the earliest i've managed to finish homework since school started) and now im on the computer and in a while im going to settle down - read the latest issue of HotPress - and later go to bed.
tomarrow will probably be the same thing but only with 1 test and more homework. but since i have band practice friday i havent had time at all yet to learn the songs we just added to the setlist so i'll have to squash practice in somewhere too....

Woke up at 6:30. Was on the bus at 7:30am (had to get a bus cos of the tube strike). Sat on the bus for 2 hours getting to the other side of London. Had a meeting about a newspaper commercial. Made an editor do an edit for me of said commercial. Went to Soho to change the packshot on another commercial and had to grade the film, stabalise the shot, remove a passing car from the shot and add titles. Left work at 6:30pm, went to a friends house for dinner, then came home. (The tube is now working!)

Woke up at 10:20. Made espresso. Drank espresso. Walked 2 miles to 11:00 class. Found out my professor has a wonderful English accent...therefore got excited about said class. Came home. Watched TV and ate some pineapple. Walked another mile and a half to my next class. Was bored to death by it....mostly stared at the horse skeleton in the room. Walked to my atmospheric and oceanic science class. Fell asleep during it. Walked home. Finished watching Moulin Rouge with my roommate. Found out my hot friend with awesome music taste wants to be my "seat buddy" this semester in my film class. Now I'm online.
Later today I will bike across town for a radio station meeting, bike back home, then go to work for a few hours...then probably pass out. I'd like to sneak a run in somewhere...but I'm afraid walking 7 miles a day and biking another 4 is enough exercise for me today.

My 'work' days are generally characterised by me waking up late and this setting a precedent to the way I react to everything else that happens during the course of my time at work.
My alarm always goes off at 7am - I never get out of bed until 8am and I should really be at work for 8.30. It takes half an hour to get to the office so you do the math.
I then say an uncomfortable 'Hello' to my boss. The history between us being that he (bear in mind he looks like a Charlie Chaplin/Nigel Kennedy/Hitler hybrid) once sent me a text telling me he fancied me and wanted to cook me a meal. I showed my dad the text - my dad threatened to "kick seven shades of shit out if him". Also, unbeknownst to my boss, I was sort of 'seeing' his son at the time. This is all now out in the open and makes for a very peculiar working environment.
I then suck up to journalists all day, plan product launches and book test vehicles out to them. Crazy stuff, I'm sure you'll agree.
Tonight I went for a quick shop in Oxford St before going home - this is fairly standard activity for me. I call family/friends whilst sodding about on here for a bit, watch some shite TV then drag my sorry ass to bed.
Such is my existence.

I woke up at about 11:30 (I was up till 4am), had a deliciously strong coffee and read the paper while listening to my dad yell at the bank over something silly (the man has issues with authority figures). I was feeling productive, so I did a load of washing, some physio on my broken thumb and then I went for a run. At the moment, I'm looking for another job, because I hate, hate, hate my current one. I celebrated the news that there's a KOL pre-sale next week for Australian shows, and also got my first karma. Wow. My life is really boring.

Today I woke up at 6.30am, got up at 6.40 and then got ready for work. Left at 7.30 and was annoyed by the amount of traffic, which I think is because the schools have started again!
Work was a fairly average day, made more exciting by hearing charmer on the radio! I also spoke to a lovely guy in America who had the best voice! I'm rubbish with accents but he was in Washington dc if that means anything! It was just a nice voice, and he was really helpful too. So that made my day a bit better as well.
I also had a conversation with someone at work about KOL - he'd seen BOTT on my car seat and asked who it was. I told him but he had no idea! I named songs and everything - there's no hope for some people.
After work I drove into town to do some boring shopping, then went home. Had dinner, went for a walk, watched some tv, now I'm on here. And that's about it!
