I guess I have always been a creature of habit; at least my wife and children have always accused me of this. Naturally I would pooh pooh them and deny it, but I guess i always knew i am. Anally compulsive in some areas, obsessed in others and certainly a person with well defined routines, likes and dislikes, but aren’t we all? Prison has certainly shown me that I am rather compulsive and in fact thankfully i am this way because it helps in here to have well defined routines and habits. The downside to all of this is when my routine gets disturbed and thrown off; it does really irk me to make a change on the fly. The big difference being in the joint and being out is that in here i embrace my quirkiness, neurosis some might say, and enjoy the routines I've established. In fact when they do get thrown off I enjoy the challenge of getting them back on track. Today being a perfect example, we lost our hot water for most of the day, thus, my 1 pm shower time was blown off the map. Add to that I had a visit today and this cut into my exercise hours, the cold water threw off my prep for the visit, no shower so my day was totally off schedule. I can happily report I have gotten everything back on track as of this 8 pm entry and now look forward to tomorrow’s challenges. Who know, I might develop a new routine of being off routine. Thank you Camp Fed
