I don't really have a routine either, I tend to try and conserve as much time in bed as I can manage.

Though my routine would loosly consist of;

07:00 - alarm goes off
07:10 - finally get out of bed
07:15 - have shower
07:25 - brush teeth and get dressed (depending on my laziness I might still be in bed at this point)
07:30 - feed minions..sorry animals
07:35 - prepare lunch (if there is anything in to take) - if not read BD.
07:45 - realise I should have left and get stuff together
07:50 - find car keys and house keys
08:00 - dash to car and try to get into work on time.

05:30 - Alarm 1 goes off, press power button on pc or laptop and the snooze button. Automated processes run
06:00 - Alarm 1 goes off again, followed by Alarm 2. I check e-mails and any problems before I get to work, I also run any reports that will take a long time to run
06:30 - BBC world news
06:45 - Breakfast
07:00 - Shower
07:15 - Get dressed
07:30 - Leave for work
08:00 - Arrive at work
08:05 - Order bacon roll for 11 and JP for lunch
08:10 - Fight through crowds of people telling me their problems
08:20 - Nervous breakdown 1

Don't really have any routines, bar get up, go to work, go to lunch, do more work, go home.

I suppose my weekly routine is best described as:

Between 7:00-8:00 - wake up/get up/shower/dress/eat breakfast plus general pottering around depending on when I get up (latest usually 7:45)

Between 8:05 and 8:15 - leave house to get the 8:24 or 8:32 train to work.
9am - 1pm - work
1pm-1:30 to 2pm - out at lunch
2pm-6pm onwards depending on whether I'm finished for the day or taking work home, sometimes as late as 10pm sometimes 6pm on the dot.
Go home and eat/watch TV/play on computer if I'm not out somewhere in London village have after-work drinks!

Don't really have any responsibilities or places I need to be at certain times bar work, it's quite nice

I never really have a routine for any aspect of my life. Especially in my old job like Burble - travelling meant I could **** off any idea of planning anything.

As of now, the only thing I routinely do is get up at 5am during the week and go to bed at about 11pm. I have breakfast - that is my only routine I have to eat first thing in the morning.

Otherwise everything else in between is however I take it. I don't need routine as I can function without it and I find life easier that way.

I find it very hard to believe that anyone who gets up at the same time each day and goes out at the same time each day hasn't settled into a repetitive routine for their morning activities.

Consistently inconsistent !!!

[Dr. Z]

I get out of bed 10 minutes after the last possible moment I could wake up to get where I need to get to on time. Dash to the bathroom to empty my bladder and brush my teeth (I don't bother with a shave 99.9% of the time).

Everything after that happens in whatever order I happen to stumble across it until the point I am walking down the hallway towards the front door, when I pat my pockets in order: Phone, Keys, Wallet.

Think I already answered this one Huddy
