I like this thread. Very insightful. Here's a play-by-play of my Monday during COVID-19. I live in California but work on a schedule so I can meet with people in EST, BST and GMT:
>5am, alarm. Wife and I push each other to get out of bed. Lots of groaning and nudging. If it's an especially hectic week, shitty jokes about how it's almost Friday. I'm definitely staring at my phone, trying to catch up on the bullshit the EU sent me overnight
>5:10am, shower
>5:20am, feed the dog, let her outside
>5:25am, coffee in hand, dressed and walk 15 feet to my office
>5:30am, jump on Zoom for a team meeting, check my calendar. The fork in the road is this: If I have livestream(s) to do, I'm in AI/PS/Premiere and making graphics, importing to wirecast and test streaming. If no events for the foreseeable future, I'm probably booked in Zoom meetings until 11am. Regardless, I'm taking a break at 11am.
>11am, snacking on something... most likely PB&J, unless we have leftovers from the night before.
>11:30am, check in with the mrs., who's on lunch at this time. Send memes, pics of our dog, vent about how shitty our days are, etcetera.
>12pm, really depends. Lately, I'm in project meetings during this time for infrastructure planning in our west-coast regions. Otherwise, I'm probably in some Adobe suite product, preparing shitty static or moving graphics for a livestream I need to do.
>2pm, if I don't have meetings later in the evening with the JAPAC region, this is when I'm calling it a day. Turn off all my machines/peripherals, close the door and sit on the couch with my dog. Probably playing a video game, looking at Slap or figuring out new ways to waste money.
>3pm, wife gets home. We've already determined what's for dinner so I'm probably prepping the ingredients then, getting ready to cook them to eat by 3:30. Lately, lots of grilled chicken breast thrown into salad, pastas or some other easy mix.
>4pm, we've eaten. We gauge how much energy our dog has and either take her on a walk or play with her in the backyard before the sun goes down.
>5pm, we're chilling on the couch, staring at our phones or mindlessly have something on Netflix. Probably a sitcom thats easy to digest.
>6pm, we're watching a movie. If it's an extra cold night, that movie is probably Harry Potter. It's a thing, I can't explain it
>8/830pm, we've watched a movie, maybe fooled around and are now transitioning into bed
>8:30-9pm, reading wikipedia pages or a book
>9-9:30pm, I pop a melatonin and sleep.
