After doing laundry, I'm usually a sweaty mess, so I do it towards the end of the day on Saturday. I can usually find a brief interval when the laundry room's fairly empty. I'm in the office around 8:00 most mornings, so I'd have to be up ridiculously early (shudder) ... and the people who live near the laundry room would probably be unhappy as well.
Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sometimes I wash my face twice in the shower because I can't remember if I did it or not. That is the kind of autopilot I am on in the morning. There is no adding a multi-stage process to that, even if I were to get up an hour or more early.

Just this morning, a friend of mine was talking about the late-hours laundry policy that his condo association set up a late night addition to what doing the laundry cost -- from $1 a load to $15 a load. So that if you absolutely have to get it done, you'll pay through the nose.

Our wings are not tired.
Another advantage of being a morning person is the ease of grocery shopping between 6-8 in the morning. Got the whole place to myself!

My alarm went off at 5:40am this morning. I'm not getting up earlier than that to do any goddamn thing unless I'm trying to make a flight.

How do I spontaneously combust turn into a morning person? Asking for a very tired night owl.

Tim has to be at the hospital at 5:30 a.m. next week for his surgery, which means we're getting up at 4 goddamn o'clock in the morning. So wrong.

I am finally seeing Knives Out. Currently have the entire theater to myself. I feel very Howard Hughes.

Meds. And coffee in the mornings.
(I don't actually recommend this plan, but it's the only thing that works for me.)
