Routine

I am a nonconformist by nature and as such, have always avoided incorporating too much routine into my day. Lately though, I have come to enjoy routine. I believe that most routine can be categorized as good, neutral or bad. My habit of stopping at the coffee shop most mornings seems like a healthy thing to do. It puts me into a good frame of mind for work and is conducive to updating my blog, not to mention the pleasant buzz from the caffeine. Yesterday I had to travel some distance to visit a vendor and drank my coffee on the way. I immediately felt the change in my routine with some mild discomfort. This morning I am back in the comfy chair, basking in the morning sun, enjoying my morning routine. Visiting Clickerville is more of a bad to neutral habit. Watching old reruns of Law & Order or CSI is just a poor substitute for living life. However, in my opinion, shows such as Conquering Everest or The Sopranos deliver high quality entertainment and or useful information.

Last night I enjoyed supper with the family (a rare event these days) following a run with B. I then retired to Clickerville to cath up with my friend Tivo. Clickerville is becoming less and less appealing so I actually find more enjoyment there knowing that I am not just hiding from life, but purposely seeking entertainment.

I would like to improve my writing given that I have the equivalent of a third grade education. The notion of a college course is not particularly appealing but I am hoping I can find something like a writers group or workshop.
