    Have you got any little rituals that you do all the time. I tend to do stuff on a Friday that I wouldn't do any other the day of the week.

    -We have two toilet cubicals in work and one of them is my Friday Cubical

    -I always have Sugar Puffs for breakfast on Friday.

    -I always read Zoo and Nuts on a Friday even though I get them either Wednesday or Thursday

    -I go to a pub for lunch on a Friday.

    -I wear gel to work on a Friday for no apparent reason.


    Its my little way of making the weekend start that little bit earlier. Even stuff like seeing a full tank in my car makes it feel like Friday. Does anyone else have anything similar?

    Usually have lunch at 2, always in the same restaurant with the same friends.
    Go for pints in the evening.

    I pretty much just go to the pub on friday...

    But my mates at work always bring lunch during the week but on Friday its "Treat Day" so they can pig out on whatever they want in the canteen....

    Zoo+Nuts+Friday cubicle? The back of the door doesn't have a white streak going down it, hmm?

    Let me see, Friday rituals.....nope. Sometimes if I'm feeling frisky I get myself a brekkie roll (oooh, go me). Maybe the fact that works a bit slower I hop on to Last.fm and get on the rock train, toot toot.

    Get up, go to work, eat something, spend more money on musical equipment I don't really need (kaossalator today w00t), try zone out for the rest of the day (nothin to do unfortunately so I decided to try every linux release, all on a dell machine to make it more annoyin.) Get home, crack open a can and go where the beer takes me.
