Question with 20 notes

Anonymous asked: Can you walk us through a day in the life of cool kid William

Ok, but it’s not that interesting!!!!!

Usually I wake up around 7 and look at the clock. I realize it’s early and then sleep again until 10 or maybe a little later if I’m having an interesting dream. Then I get up and immediately forget my dream and go brush my teeth/floss/clean my eyes because I have tear duct problems.

Then I’ll eat a pop tart or something and check twitter and I try to get working on freelance work around 11 or 12. I do that until like 7 or 8 and then I’ll work on personal projects or get caught up deconstructing the world with Julia  or something on skype or twitter.  Have you been to our fantastic friendship blog?  


Sometimes if I have an errand to do I’ll do it early because the bank and post office close after 7, but i hate when this happens because then I end up having to work until midnight and it feels like my day is gone, even though I’ll probably stay up until 2AM reading manga or something…….

Every night around 11 I say ok I’ll go to bed at midnight and wake up early but then I almost invariably get caught up doing something until 2AM.  Sometimes it’s productive like a drawing or something…. but not always.  Every once in a while I’ll watch a film or a few episodes of some hipster anime like Tatami Galaxy or something.  Sometimes I read books too.

Throughout the day I’ll probably check my e-mail 100 times hoping for a job offer and wonder about the state of the world or love or if I’m on the path to a life I want to live. I listen to a lot of podcasts while I work and take a multitude of breaks to play guitar and/or write music. I used to go for a run every day at 5’oclock but my knee got bad. Anyways it’s starting to feel good despite all the walking I do, so maybe I can start again.

I guess that about sums it up, in so many words. Sometimes I cook. I probably get angry and worried about the environment for thirty minutes every day.
