I resolved to post some "typical day" entries to DW. Once a month. But I'm way behind so you get a big summary!

Typical Previous job: Wake up 8-ish. Sometimes sleep alarm for 20min. Drive to work for 9ish or sometimes 9:30. Eat tesco chilli for lunch. Drive home. Sometimes go out in evening, but parking and not drinking is inconvenient.

Typical "between jobs" day. Naturally wake up about 8:30. Go to bed midnight if I'm in the middle of things, but 11 or earlier ideally. Follow fairly usual breakfast/lunch/dinner routine. Spend a lot of time trying to do "all the things" which may be a mistake.

Dance Larp Day: train to london. I have lots of time -> oops, a bit late. Find lovely people marshalled by friend and her friend. Dance a 20s NYE party plot. Home on train. Sleep.

Typical new job: Wake up 8-ish. Cycle to work. Arrive 9:30 ish. Maybe squeeze in some useful stuff at home first. Lunch from shops near station. Cycle home, or stop off at TBC gym or pub meet. Similar bedtime.

oh, lucky you. Me: wake up 0715; out of house by 0745; bike, train (0818 to WLF), bike; desk by 0900. Lunch in cafe at work (usually brought from home). Leave 1650 to bike, train (1733 to CBG), bike. Home by 1830 to collapse in a useless heap. Bed by 2230 or I can't do it again tomorrow.

Weekends more leave bed a noon, go to Stir for hipster brunch, make weekday lunch soup, make dinner, TV, bed.

Oh such a glamourous life I lead.

Yeah, Rachel has almost your commute, and it's working but it's definitely leaving her squeezed for time. I'm really glad mine is shorter. I did a long commute out to one of the villages for a while and it was very draining.
