Routine.
Having a daily routine keeps us regular. It allows us to function during the day.
The proverbial three S’s of any guy’s morning ‘the sh$t, shave and a shower’ keeps us refreshed and ready for whatever the day wants to throw at us.
Failing to accomplish any of these three feats, we become vulnerable.
Three S Routine
Sh$tting: Failing to contemplate life in the morning, or read the New Yorker (for the articles), while perched on the porcelain throne, is a devastating blow to our bowels. We haven’t fully clinched the morning, nor knocked out our daily plan of action.
Shaving: If we don’t shave, we look unkempt. Unprepared, as if we just woke up. Even if you do want a luxurious beard, close-cropped stubble, or you are Tom Selleck, we still take time to trim it or maintain it.
Showering: Failing to shower means we stink. More than usual.
Now some people may add additional elements to their morning routine, some of which I shall address with finesse here:
Coffee: Yes. Now. It could even be part of the three S’s, but there’s no S in it.
Tea: No. It’s only for High Tea at 4pm. And it must come with a scone.
Breakfast: Okay. I don’t normally eat breakfast, but I love it when I have it. Speaking of which, I should change my ways.
Brushing of the Teeth: Do it. 4 out of 5 dentists agree.
Exercise: Forget it. You could literally be sleeping instead. Seriously, stay in bed.
Road Rage: Conditional. If you have to commute to work, you’re basically screwed. So get mad about it, by all means.
Reading of the Newspaper: Okay. But you can kill two birds with one stone by accomplishing this while sh$tting.
Meditation: No. Extra sleep is good enough.
Sleeping in: I just found my fourth ‘S’. Zzzzzzzz.
