Re: Build Season Habits
Saturday, 0600: Wake up. Ok, make that 0610, wake up. Crap, just woke up again at 0620, going to be late. Man, it's flippin' cold outside.
Saturday, 0700: Mentor and Student Lead meeting to assess the week's progress, plan for the weekend and talk about logistics. Still sleepy. Vice: coffee, dark roast, no cream, sugar or other flavored crap.
Saturday, 0830: Breakfast usually provided by a parent. Shop machine tools are usually humming along. Vice: Bagels, or scrambled egg casserole (usually). More coffee! Will probably start bringing my own steel-cut oat oatmeal from home in 2016 since there's a microwave nearby.
Saturday, 1100: Hungry again since breakfast was mostly carbs. Stale bagels it is. Vice: MOAR COFFEE!1!! That'll solve it...
Saturday, 1300: Blood sugar low from all of the thinking about rules, prototypes and strategies. Time for lunch. Usually pizza. Started bringing veggies from home in 2015 - good habit btw. Vice: mellow out with some coca cola or mountain dew.
Saturday, 1600: CAD CAD CAD CAD CAD CAD CAD CAD CAD. Vice: anything with sugar. Just keep the brain happy...
Saturday, 1800: Phew, time to go relax on the couch at home! Just bring the laptop to CAD, check CD, run Excel scenarios, purchase things we forgot to purchase before the end of the day, etc. Wife wants to watch "say yes to the dress" or other such shows. Ok, np. We usually chat during commercials. Vice: Really nice headphones, usually Lindsey Stirling, Trifonic, or other meditative no-word symphonic digital music.
Saturday, 2300: Crap. Can't get to sleep. Didn't mean to stay up this late to begin with, and now I wonder if we've overlooked something. Are we doing too much? What if we did something crazy, like mandate 30 pounds be saved for X subsystem since it seems more important than we've determined - how would that change our vision for the design of subsystem Y? What if Y doesn't work out, how do we maximize subsystem X for highest probable utility and value? Vice: comfy bed.
