My life 5 years from now

Jun 24, 2007 21:45

1. I hear the sound of my alarm clock. Rolling out of the satin sheets and midnight blue comforter, I turn it off and look out of the window where the red crushed velvet curtains are drawn, framing a small well tended vegetable garden. The light indicates it's about 7am.

2. i get out of bed and unroll my yoga mat. The next 45 minutes are dedicated to my morning ritual and sun salutations.

3. I put the kettle on for my organic mountain raspberry black tea. I grab the paper from the front porch and peruse it at my leisure, the only sound I hear is the tweet of birds. I've never owned a television the entire time I've had my apartment.

4. The tea is ready and I sip it while eating fresh fruit, plain yogurt and half a cup of granola.

5. I take out the Japanese style cold lunch from the refrigerator and tuck it snugly in my black leather briefcase, I jump in the shower and properly exfoliate and cleans.

6. After making my bed, I slip into my appropriately librarian attire, complete with gingham and embroidered slippers. My hair is still it's dyed auburn, but there is no roots, and the highlights indicate a professional hand. I slip on my glasses after applying light eye makeup, grab my thurmos, briefcase, and gymn bag. I lock the deadbolt behind me and head out the front door.

7. It's about a 10 minute bus ride from my 1 bedroom apartment to Berkeley Main library. I give a buck to the homeless guy as I get off the bus.

8. The entire day at work, I do not drop any books. I do not get fed up with the homeless people and irate patrons when they cannot get on the computer. I do not forget stupid stuff, I don't bump into things. I get along with my coworkers. I am a member of the ALA, and try to attend conferences every year. My desk is lined with small plastic trolls dressed in victorian clothing, and 1 named Joe glows in the dark.

9. My lunch hour is usually spent either working and eating in my office, or at intermezzo with coworkers or a good book I've picked up. I do not leave crumbs or stains on my dress.

10. After work I head over to the gymn and do cardio or weightlifting.  I shower and change.

11. When I get home, I make a delicious meal with alot of vegetables, and I like it because of the vegetables. I read my RSS feeds, update my weekly planner and settle down with my guitar for 40 minutes of practice. After cleaning up and putting everything in its place, I get into bed and read till about 10. I shut off the lights and go to sleep.

I have not smoked.

My routine varies with boyfriends. More sex sometimes, hiking on the weekends.

I want this to start. Like. Now.
