Do you have any ritual, routines you always follow on daily tasks?

I was wondering about people's habits in daily life. I'll explain what kind.

When you take a shower, for instance, do you always do things in the same order? I usually work my way down, from washing hair to feet.

Do you always walk the same streets/ drive the same routes/ take same public transport to get to places you go to often? Or do you feel the need to change it once in a while?

-- These are for non-Americans, since dishwashers and dryers are common appliances in the US but not in many other locations:

Do you pair socks up before hanging them on the clothesline or after they're dry? (Or not all for some? lol)

Do you always follow the same order in washing the dishes? Like, start with silverware, then go to plates, containers and pots and pans last?

Yes, I do everything the same, day after day 12
I have a few rituals, but change them up sometimes 22
No, I never do anything the same twice 4
Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    I'm pretty random
    I am highly disorganized, spontaneous and impulsive so every day is pretty different lol

    Our only response was to keep on going and fuck everything. Pile misery upon misery, heap it up on a spoon and dissolve it with a drop of bile, then squirt it into a stinking purulent vein and do it all over again. Keep on going: getting up, going out, robbing, stealing, fucking people over, propelling ourselves with longing towards the day it would all go wrong.

    Yes, i follow a daily routine and if i don't it really messes with my mood and everything else seems wrong to me and i can't do anything about it later, and that's because i have a slight Asperger's trace.

    I wake up at 530, prepare a tea and a coffee. Drink my tea, light a cigarette, take a shit, take a shower. Except weekends when everything is done randomly.

    I have a few rituals but I tend to change things up depending on my mood and how much time I have.

    As a new mom, I dont have much time for a shower so sometimes I only get to wash one thing. Depending on what needs it most, that is what gets washed.

    I do like to take different routes when I walk or bike places. I only have one option for the bus so that doesn't change. And I tend ti stick to the same route when driving. But not always. It depends on how well I know the area.

    I am american but I do use a clothesline and don't have a dishwasher.

    I do like to make sure my socks match before I put them in the wash. And I only line dry large items like towels because I don't have clothes pins.

    And I always wash silverware last. My mom taught me as a kid to let them soak first and it just stayed with me.

    I don't really have any ritualistic doings, but I do have compulsions that make me want to do things, such as cracking my neck, clearing my throat, blinking, or pressing keys on the laptop (which gets in the way of everything I do on it).

    First thing I do is wake up and play a podcast while I make a coffee, I have other routines that come and go but there's only a few things I feel I have to do,

    Listening to a podcast waking up and falling asleep, have to smoke a menthol before I go to bed and I have to have a coffee when I wake up and between 6-8 in the evening,

    In the shower, I remove my makeup, wash my face, then soap up. After that I shampoo my hair then put on conditioner. I let the conditioner sit while I shave. Crotch first, pits then legs. When thats done I rinse out the conditioner and bam DONE.

    • I do the conditioner thing too. Now, you ever try to change that up and because of that skip on washing certain parts? Lol, well, that's what happens to me when I try to do it differently!

    Are you saying that other countries don't use dishwashers? Thanks for laughs.
