I totally understand. Add makeup to your routine and it’s 10 more minutes of repetitive hell full of minutiae! I love the idea in the opening credits of “The Jetsons” — when they’re on a peoplemover and are ready in a matter of seconds.

But then again, I don’t like to make my bed, either. Aren’t I just going to mess it up again in approximately 12 hours?

I’m all for the non-committed getting ready day, but you might want to just spend the extra 5 minutes brushing your teeth.

Oh, yeah. Forgot about adding that brushing the teeth thing into the second option.

Damn! My whole theory is shot!

So what exactly does “gearing up for a shower” entail? I usually try to “gear down,” if you know what I mean!

Usually that minute, gearing up for a shower entails me standing just outside the shower (still dressed) rubbing my eyes, breathing heavy SIGHS and saying over and over again: “You can do it. You can totally do it. Oh, get over it! You can do it. I’m such a fucking idiot. I’m such a fucking idiot…”

Something like that.

And sometimes I just don’t want to go to bed. Again with the brushing of the teeth, the flossing, the changing of the clothes, the turining off of the television, the unmaking of the bed, the glass of water with the Ambien. I could be saving so much time if I just fell asleep on the couch in front of Larry King.
