I was talking to my husband about how I’m autistic, but I’m not the kind that's really rigid about schedules because I can be really spontaneous on weekends when we're out and about and just going with the flow to the next thing that sounds fun and he was like "Yeah, but what about weekday Alice?"
Weekday Alice:
6am: Wake up and go to the gym and use the elliptical for two episodes of I Think You Should Leave
7am: Shower and get dressed and try to catch up on whatever happened on the Internet while I was sleeping
8am: Start work and have a coffee and a breakfast bar
10am: Snack time! Greek yogurt with a tiny spoon.
12pm: Lunch time! Usually leftovers from dinner from the night before or a can of soup which is low-key my favorite so don’t make fun of me.
2pm: Snack time #2! Cucumber slices with balsamic vinegar or soy sauce if I want something salty
5pm: End work and make dinner
6pm: Dessert time! Usually a frozen treat like a Drumstick ice cream cone or an ice cream sandwich
7pm: Drink a can of Recess to wind down for the night
9pm: Get in bed and doomscroll until I fall asleep
I repeat this every M–F and the only deviation is on Fridays because that's pizza night so most Fridays we'll just get a sad frozen pizza but the last Friday of the month we have SPECIAL pizza which really just means a pizza from whatever local place we feel like but at least it's not another sad frozen pizza.
